The real question is...

Is it safe to workout while wearing your Royal Oak?

I guess the answer is YES

Im all about using your watch to the fullest but this draws the line with me. You are a brave man. Haha. I would be totally for it with a sub or a panerai.

What do other people on TRF think?

By the way great looking pictures.

It doesn't look safe for the Royal Oak!

My watch comes off for golf, exercise, etc.

Actually - it comes off my wrist and into my 'weekly rotation' watch box right when I walk in the door in the evening...

Not for me, sports where there are few chances of bumps or scratches sure, but the other as well as workouts no way, love my watches too much for that, sorry

Looks great, but I'm a bit more conservative with my watches.

It's your watch so I say you can do what you like. I work out with my panerai but never with the AP, but that's just me.

There are people who go to the gym to work out and there are people who dress up to go to the gym to take photos of themselves

Usually, I put it away in the locker but yesterday I decided to try it out and see how it holds up

I didn't disappoint, I must say but wouldn't do it again

Same I'd do anything with my PAM without thought.

Rubber weights, no big deal. The AP will remain top notch.

Agree with Roger. I would never work out with any of my watches (not even the Rolex).

I was joking by the way. I would never wear an AP like that. I am too much of a wuss.

I don't see the reason for taking that risk.. I don't like anything on my wrist or fingers like rings when I work out anyways..

I wouldn't do it, but the AP will likely survive.

Have worn my 5167 and former diver-c but never my 15400 while I had it. That's audacious. I typically strap on a sub for the gym. Mainly because I ak out doing other things, must wear a watch at all times and don't trust gym lockers or my vehicle.
