How many of you allow family members to wear a piece from your collection? If you do, how do you feel about it (do you worry etc…)?

I would let my wife wear my Sub-c to work a few times, but she says it's too big.

Not a problem here

My wife has stolen my Explorer and today I noticed a scratch on the case that was not there before.

I told myself it can be polished out, no big deal, let it go, count to ten, take a breath, just let it go.

I don't worry about it, she is careful I think it got scratched because it was too loose on her wist it needs to be fitted better. She is the only person I will allow to wear my watches though.

She can get her own watch!

My eldest son wears one of my DateJusts every now and then....special occaisions mostly I suppose but not always......he has his name on it (figuratively) as it will be his eventually, 21st birthday I would imagine......I don't worry when he wears it.....he cannot take his eyes off it and the smile it generates is worth a million dollars

My wife wears my White Daytona, an uncle has my ExpyII, another has my bluesy, and third one has my classic GMT Master II.

Not a chance. Watches are like motorcycles - not meant to be shared

Andrés G · 12 September 2010, 05:44 PM

My sons will get to wear them, when they´re old enough.

Aspirin · 12 September 2010, 06:42 PM

The only TT midsize dia DJ of mine had no more belong to me since last Monday, to my wife yet. What I have now just two damn Citizen quartz watches. But I will replace this empty shortly by Exp.2 black face.

Anyone in my family can wear any watch I own..

What bothers me is.... when they get "confiscated"...

Chris B · 12 September 2010, 07:11 PM

My son can wear any of mine, heck they're gonna be his one day anyway

erling · 12 September 2010, 08:14 PM

My wife, my Sub, sometimes

Gerardus · 12 September 2010, 08:51 PM

She as her own (new DJ) and i do not want her, to even touch my 2 pieces.

bayerische · 12 September 2010, 08:52 PM

0.

My wife could use them if she liked to, but she says they are not feminine enough. Thank god!

She has her own Ladies Omega Seamaster.

I gave one to each of 4 sons, but I didn't ever loan one. I don't remember it ever coming up. Maybe they knew not to ask.

nauticajoe · 12 September 2010, 10:21 PM

Nada......other than my kids wanting to take a pic of it

I have let family members borrow them.

enronforme · 13 September 2010, 12:53 AM

No chance on this end- with 4 teenagers in the house, it's hard enough to keep track of stuff!!

DCgator · 13 September 2010, 01:16 AM

I wish my two sons would borrow my watches. Neither wear a watch, they use their cell to check for time. Both said when they're ready to wear a watch regularly they will let me know. Eldest and only daughter also do not wear a watch.

520Matt · 13 September 2010, 02:05 AM

I'd let my wife wear mine is she wanted to, but i'm not proficient in removing links, and when my 4 year old sign is old enough and mature enough he can!
