If I'm conscious there's a Rolex on my wrist.

Excellent point here...

Though I only have one Rolex in my house, and a few in the bank vault. So it's a Rolex Sub or no watch....

Ok, I do have a 100 dollar quartz watch for jogging...

It's actually a good time to examine and admire the details of the pieces I have. Yes I do.

Wow..I am really in the minority on this one. I NEVER wear a watch at home, and when I have been out for the day it is one of the first things I put away when I get back. I put up my keys and wallet first...and then put my watch back on its winder.

I have my watch on no matter what I am doing. Asleep, in the chair, going to work, it doesn't matter, a watch is on my arm

Ouch I don't... Just when I take a shower and go out mainly, even to the supermarket, but at home I just think I don't want to give myself a chance to smash it or do something weird while I am putting the dirty dishes on the dishwasher, or putting some wood on the fireplace, etc... I am kind of an OCD here I must admit it!

After reading this post I tried it. But after washing dishes, putting them in the dryer, getting clothes out of the dryer, prepping some meat, putting it in the oven. I realized that I was not using my left arm to its full potential. I was afraid to get it wet when washing dishes, afraid to bump it on whatever when doing laundry or cooking. I even tried to cover it up with me sleeve, but it kept popping out. Therefore, I took it off and put it back. BTW, it was raining pretty heavy today, is it safe to wear it in the rain? I know I can go swimming, but those rain drops can come at weird angles.

I wear my Sub or GMT at home all the time. Even when I am watching the Rams beat the 49ers.

I heard its not safe to wear it at home if the day happened to be a lazy day

I don't wear a watch at home as it feels weird like wearing a suit and lazing around at home with no intention of stepping out of the house.
