I've always worn a watch 24/7, but since I started wearing nice watches (about 7 years ago), I started removing them before I get in the shower. Otherwise, on me all the time.

I wear the watch on my left wrist, and sleep on the right of my wife. She puts on hand lotion each night, and every morning my watch has smudgy goo all over the crystal. Guess thats the price you pay for love!

My watch comes off when I come home in the evening and doesn't return to my wrist unless I go out again or until the morning when I leave the house. I never wear a watch to bed, in the shower or in a swimming pool............

As a young Army Infantry Officer who spent many months in the field I got quite used to wearing a watch 24/7, still do.

I also wear a Rolex to bed. Doesnt matter which one..whatever I wore that day goes to bed with me. For some reason, I always oversleep if I dont have a watch on my wrist.

I'm with you Dalton. I'm too scared to smack my Sub on bedroom furniture whilst tossing and turning to wear it in bed.

I've occasionally worn my Seiko diver on a NATO which is a lot more comfortable than the Oyster, but overall wearing a watch in bed is just not natural for me.

Thank You,

24/7 but if I sleep with my left arm under my pillow close to my ear there is a slight humming noise from the movement that bothers me so I have to reposition. Kind of a pain but I just can't take it off.

Icon14 Hi, my name is Dell, and I ...

... wear my watch when I sleep. Not reluctant to wear it for everything else as well (or at least my Rolex models); just choose not to, as it means more frequent, elaborate cleaning.

Currently wearing my Omega 2531.80 Seamaster. Best feel is my Rolex Explorer I. But, like some others here Posted, I have worn a watch to bed as long as I can remember. Wife has complained at times, but seems to have (finally) accepted it now.
