This kind of "I wear my watch"-threads, often should read "I should have taken my watch of before doing that".
Not sure what kind of enjoyment you get from risking damaging your precious belongings. I certainly don't. I wear my watches everyday, but I take them off if I'm about to do something that could damage them. |

What’s the point of having these things if you can’t wear them? If anything happens, I have comprehensive insurance. What people forget is these things can take way more than our own bodies can. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Are you going to clean it?
I could clean a chimney wearing my hand knitted cashmere but why would I? |

Heck yeah! I mean I wouldn’t jackhammer miles of road with my watch on but I wear it for just about anything else.
If you want it to be immaculate put it in a safety deposit box and never look at it. Forget you own it lol |

To each his own I say, its just a difference of opinion and lifestyle. Enjoy your watch however way you want it, its your watch, your money.
I rather look at the common denominator here..we all love and enjoy our Rolexes in different ways. Plus its the Chinese New Year, Gong Xi Fa Cai everyone. |

Should have taken a picture when I was armpit deap in a blocked drain wearing my Explorer. It's just a tool and if you need to preserve its value rather buy shares.

Just because you can do something, does not mean you should. So, did you keep the watch like that or clean it after? If the ladder, then there was no reason to wear it while cleaning. Did you need to know the time while cleaning the bbq? If you kept it looking like that after, great, you just like a dirty watch. Why risk damage when not needed?

To me, I forget that I even have a watch on except when I want to know the time. This means I do all my normal things with it on, whatever they are. I don’t consider my watch more valuable than my own body, so as long as it’s with me all is well.

Exactly. Well done. I feel the same way about my BMW. Drive it like you mean it. Who cares what anyone thinks.

I get the 180 degree from the guys who are overly cautious on wearing your Rolex, but come on, do you wear your tuxedo to clean your grill? Your cashmere sweater to wash your car? Maybe wear your suit to go scuba diving?
