While I get the whole "its a tool watch, its made to survive that" thing, I'm not into deliberately rampaging my watches. I sorta like the look of them when they're not too beat-up.

That said, I hardly ever do anything where they would get rampaged anyway...

But anyone's mileage may vary...

I wear a $20 Seiko quartz for projects like that.

Wow, how do you do it without getting your hands dirty? You remind me of the bloke in the workshop manuals who rebuilds an engine without getting his hands dirty

I wear latex and Mechanix Gloves :) Trust me, they weren't that clean by the time I was done.

Yes it's a tool watch but look up my thread from about 4-5 years ago where I completely destroyed my DSSD when I was trying to remove a manifold bolt off my Corvette. After $2500-3000 I got it back looking good minus the big dent but I'll pass on doing that again.
