It's not because of fear of damaging the watch it just feels uncomfortable to me to have the Rolex on one wrist and my Garmin on the other. It doesn't serve a purpose to do that either.
Yes marathoner but primarily ultramarathons on trail. 26 miles is just a training run haha.

I've got a friend here who did his last Marathon. He hit 100 marathons or ultras and decided in his late 60s that was enough. Hat's off to you!!! It's not in my constitution!!!

Tried it with my submariner C. Too heavy and won't do it again. Just to much movement and rubbing on the wrist.

Hope to clarify this issue. I have been wearing my Rolex Sea Dweller 16600 during my runs. Just wondering if this will affect the movement/gears and the time accuracy. If so, I will have discontinue this habit.

Thanks for your input!

Well, I’ve wore a Submariner through various selection courses, mil schools and deployments. Other than cosmetic damage, it’s survived just fine and maintains its accuracy...

I think your watch will be fine on your runs...

I would be careful as the shock of running will affect the rudrin pin and this will result in a knock on effect with the discombobulated cog. When The time hits 12 midnight the discombobulated cog will eject itself through the Crystal. This will create sonic acoustics which will damage your hearing and cause your Nike trainers to deflate and it will be like running in your wife’s stilletoes.
