Aren't all Rolex's 'daily wearers?'

Yup - BLNR most days of the week and either Speedmaster or SubC on the weekend, depending on activities (wet vs. dry) It is most definitely a "daily wear" timepiece and, IMHO, one of the most versatile in the Rolex line.

I have worn mine every day for over a year now. I hit it lightly with a slice cloth (I forget the maker) two times. I take it off for sleep, shower and gym. Looks great.
I fly often and respond to our HQ which is overseas so I actually use the GMT name times per day. A GREAT daily wearer. Inly the second watch I have ever owned that I think will stay with me forever. Likely go to my son one day. |

Had mine for a week. Already got a few scratches but I don't mind.
It's a Rolex sports watch, designed to be used |

I daily my BLNR. It is a fantastic watch and is on my opinion one of the most practical and useful watches that Rolex makes.
I rarely take my watch off (heck I sleep with it) and yes I do desk dive with it. It does get some light scratches on the PLCs and clasp but it doesn't bother me. |

^ PCLs get a little scratched up, but I'm rough on it. Definitely my daily beater. I treat others much, much more gently. It's exactly in the same ballpark as my Landcruiser. Designed to be used. Hard.

I couldn't do it when I had mine. That's why I ended up buying a Sub to daily. To me, it was more of a special weekender than just a daily watch.

The BLNR has been my daily wearer since I bought it in June 2014.

its such a nice daily mate! i wear mine to work, its got looooooong scratches on my case ( accidentally sneezed in the toilet and as my hand came up to cover my nose i wacked the watch off the door handle)
i have so many micro scratches but over time, it kind of blends in and give it more character |

This one or a Pepsi is my dream daily wearer! I'm sure it would wear like my Sub :)

I wore my BLNR daily for 18 months. Great watch. Never gave a 2nd thought to PCLs or scratches. For past 6 months I have been wearing my AP Ti44 as a daily though....Guess I am still in my AP honeymoon phase :)

I have worn a BLNR for the past two years, rarely taking it off. I even wear it in the gym and gardening, and camping.
It has four million scratches, and some dents. If I knew the price was going to go up so much I would have babied it a bit more. I will try to keep my Sky Dweller in better shape. I would just go buy a no date sub or explorer 1 to experience the brushed look, but I do not like that I have to get down on my knees at the AD just to buy such basic watches. |

Daily
I’ve worn mine literally every day for 4 years until last week when I got a second watch, I think I’ll probably get it polished now and wear at weekends
I work at a desk and the marks are from resting my arms on it, and rubbing when typing on a keyboard. Although.... do I have any regrets..... not in the slightest! It’s an awesome what and a good daily in office environments. The PCLs do shine a lot under lights which I can see why people might feel conscious about wearing it |
