My DJ: 25 years of wrist time before I bought my Explorer II.

My Explorer 14270, that I bought new in the mid 1990s. Was my only, and daily, wearer for ten years. It is still the watch that get's the most wrist time. I am wearing it now, and it gives me as much (if not more) pleasure as it did the day I bought it.

Best,

I'd probably say a Cartier Tank Francais that I wore daily for 6 years. Bought as my first 'fine' Swiss watch when I turned 21 and got my first job out of college.

I let it go in 2005, and I'd say since then, I've worn a DJ the most, but my Daytona is really catching up!!!

Rags · 20 June 2012, 12:57 AM

I waould say both aquaracers get the most time.. My DJ is for weekends & special occasions.

rad87gn · 20 June 2012, 01:09 AM

They all get rotated pretty evenly but I'd guess my SD and GMT are tied. My wife just wears her DJ every single day.

SaddleSC · 20 June 2012, 01:37 AM

I wore this one 24/7 for 12 years. I started wearing it at age 21 and only started "collecting" watches a couple years ago:)

Swiss Army quartz from the mid 90's until it was damaged beyond repair in 2005. at which time I bought an Omega SMP.

vintagewaferthin · 29 June 2012, 09:14 AM

Probably my lord Elgin 1951 dress watch gets the most wrist time. I've owned it for about a month now and I just can't seem to pry the ole girl off my wrist. She's small at only 31mm but she looks absolutely great on the wrist!

rfknauss · 29 June 2012, 10:08 AM

Without a doubt ...... my 5513 Submariner.

caryyee · 29 June 2012, 10:12 AM

My old Seiko quartz 100 digital/analog sports watch has spent the most time on my wrist, nearly 10 years continuously. Once I got into Rolex and other watches, I began rotating them, so no watch spend more than a month or two on my wrist before I rotated it.

GDK · 29 June 2012, 10:28 AM

Casio G shock until the pushers would not work any more and the plastic came off the case. Then my Seiko diver I purchased in 1995 and still gets wrist time. But my 16610 is my everydayer.

rodrob59 · 29 June 2012, 12:13 PM

Omega SMP Chrono that was purchased in 1998 until I got my Explorer last year. Omega now has to wait for blue shirt day.

theloxmyth · 29 June 2012, 12:45 PM

Switched off between these two for many, many years.

Great grandfather's and great grandmother's Bulovas...

Then, is one for many years...

I can't get enough of this one, now!

vtchachi · 29 June 2012, 01:30 PM

GMT2-C - 116710 LN
I wear it about 75% of the time - top notch accuracy!

Whoa! What a surprise to see a Bulova 23 self-winding! It's my thinnest watch. I think I'll wear it today.

Rolex77 · 12 September 2012, 06:26 PM

I got watches from casio to rolex, I found that lately I wore datejust, tudor oysterdate, and seiko sumo more frequently

ColT32 · 12 September 2012, 10:42 PM

Seiko titanium.
Bought about 15 years ago and worn pretty much everyday and for every activity until I bought my DJ in 2010.
It's only ever needed a couple of batteries and I still wear it occasionally although the glass is quite scratched up now.

rad87gn · 13 September 2012, 12:37 AM

Good question. I've been rotating through all of my watches but if I were to guess I'd say my SD.

lsettle · 13 September 2012, 02:36 AM

Wore the Seiko SKX031 for about 5 years, sailed almost the world with that watch.

The one on the left.

shoota70 · 13 September 2012, 02:38 AM

16570 for me - looooong time.

HYPOLUXXA · 13 September 2012, 02:44 AM

16570 - Worn for 12 years, until I got my Daytona on July 26th, 2012.

Vincent65 · 13 September 2012, 02:57 AM

Both my Heuer watches. The 1942 gold chrono was my daily wearer between 1980, when I inherited it, and 1990, when I bought TAG F1, which then became my daily 'beater' of choice until 1997, when I bought my first Rolex. Several have come and gone since, and some other vintage have been added (Omega), but these 2 have had the most wrist-time
