Wearing Oyster Perpetual 41 during sport?

Hey, I’ve got sport at University tomorrow. Will entail throwing and catching (5m to 20m) with Tennis balls. I’ve got 2 other classes before that. Should I leave my watch at home or wear it to University? My only concern is that something will happen if I wear it for sport. Am I worrying for no reason? Thanks

Throwing and catching tennis balls will not do much to your watch.
But why would you wear a watch during active sport activities?

Leave the watch at home or in your locker.

I don’t play catch with tennis balls but I’ve taken a couple half days this year at work and golfed with a client. I wore my DJ41 with no problem.

I have worn by GMT II swimming, waxing my boat, riding my sea doo, and fixing a few deck boards on my dock. Rolex are tough watches. Now if you are worried about a scratch or two, keep at home in a safe place.
