Which watch has seen the most wrist time in your life?

Curious - if you count up all the watches you have worn for your entire life, which one has had the most wrist time? Rolex or otherwise, and can be a watch you don't own anymore.

For me it's my daily wearer 16610 I've had for the last 4 years. Besides that I don't recall consistently wearing one watch for more than 2 years or so, dating from childhood Casios.

It's quite hard to tell but I'd say my SMP quartz.

Hummm right now It's a tie between my Speedy Pro and Seiko quartz chronograph. I wear the seiko as a beater. It's one of the military inspired ones with the black cloth band. The SMP Quartz is third with the 14060M last (but that will change soon).

10 or more years ago while in college, I had a Seiko automatic dive watch (the kind that almost look like a real thick sub) that I wore for years. It was great and I still have it, still runs, but it should have a service after all these years. I think I paid $135 at a local J.C. Penny on a sale day, and as a poor college student, I was pretty happy to have it! That watch took alot of abuse.

This one. I bought it in 1969 before I went to college and wore it everywhere - it has seen some interesting places. I had it fully serviced and polished by Omega last year.

Well, I'd say my Invicta gets most of my wrist time, when at home. At school I wear my classic Casio. I've worn it everyday this year, at school. It's roughly logged almost 1,200 hours!!

A Casio diver I got when I was 15-16. Wore it for years, thinking of giving it a fresh battery.
