For us one Rolex owners
At the present time, I own one Rolex. A 1957-58 oyster perpetual chronometer in very fine condition. I have the service records of where the watch was serviced by a certified Rolex Tech every two years. She runs at -2 seconds a day. which in my humble opinion is remarkible considering the age of the watch.
Now, haveing only one Rolex, it never leaves my wrist except for me to clean the outside of the watch, and to set the time weekly to the atomic clock. How many of you out there leave your watch on your wrist at all times? I guess that I am just curious. please chime in here.Or am I wrong for never taking the watch off my wrist?? |

I don't see the problem, watches are made to be worn! Personally I take them off when I sleep and shower, but that's just me.

When the SD is up for rotation, it stays on my wrist except when I go to the shower.
When I go with my kids to Great Wolf Lodge, it stays on

The only metal touching my body in the shower or in bed is my wedding ring.

I feel naked without wearing my Y Master, its on my wrist all the time expect when i take a shower. You buy it to wear it, and when you die what does it matter so get as much out of it now.

I have worn my GMT Classic for five years, every day since I recieved it. From 6 am to 9 pm, it's on my wrist. Now, however, it's gone to service. I'm hurting badly. SIX WEEKS

I have several different watches, but only one Rolex. The Rolex is spending a lot of time on my wrist, but I do take it off when I get home no watch to bed or shower for me. I do usually wear an Omega on NATO when I go to the gym.
