I take my watches off to shower, my wrists need to be pristine for my watches.

Art 1 · 13 December 2011, 05:19 AM

Never have.

FlyingMoose · 13 December 2011, 05:21 AM

I use the timing bezel to make sure I don't run out of hot water.

Rallyboat · 13 December 2011, 05:48 AM

Never thought that it would get personal. Just in case we are cleaning watches!!!!!

blackmsport · 13 December 2011, 07:11 AM

well the thread is about what we do in the shower....

I wonder what would be the next thread.... what we do when we ????????

Rags · 13 December 2011, 07:20 AM

Never shower with any of my watches on.

chland7 · 13 December 2011, 07:28 AM

I don't shower but if I did I wouldn't wear a watch while doing so...

subtona · 13 December 2011, 07:32 AM

watch needs a shower too.

bayerische · 13 December 2011, 07:37 AM

No don't do it it will ruin it!

Hey it can take 10bars (100m or 300ft) last time I checked the water pressure coming from your shower head is no where near, as it would make wounds on your skin if it did.

SHOWER with it if you feel like it.

BH13GMT · 13 December 2011, 08:01 AM

i wear all of mine in the shower, apart from the 1680, its due a pressure test so i dont want any issues on my vintage

Holdout · 13 December 2011, 08:18 AM

There is no way a normal shower will damage your Rolex with water pressure.

I wear my watch to the gym and I'll wash it off with warm soapy water in the sink because I don't want to risk dropping it in shower. Sometimes I wear it in the shower, sometimes I don't.

blackmsport · 13 December 2011, 08:24 AM

My name is Mr. Smell, I have not had a shower for months

beowulf566 · 13 December 2011, 08:29 AM

Without....anything.......not even wedding band

CAPDSSD · 13 December 2011, 08:32 AM

Always shower with the watch, as early as 1980 with my Seiko Diver's 150m. Never a problem.

Mickey® · 13 December 2011, 09:23 AM

I shower...That's how I keep it clean. No gunk on my watches! Also if you have "soap scum" your using the wrong soap! DON'T use regular hand soap!!!

Therfore, the Explorer 2 will not leak unless it is defective or the seals have aged past their useful life expectancy.

I have owned Rolex watches since I was 16 and I really never take them off I switch through my collection but the one I wear at the time I keep on till I want to wear a diff one. Maybe if he is selling Japanease Rolex watches the shower would be bad but a real swiss one no problm. I have never had a problem with Tudor, Rolex, Omega, or any other fine swiss watch when it comes to water prof in showers. Although the old seamasters wernt great but Rolex is a diff story. I have had a simple oyster as old as 1947 that was completely waterprof in shower pool or anywhere. Rolex since the oyser case is the best watch for water resistance
