I wear my Breitling everyday, but take it off at night when I sleep. I do wear it in the shower though, and do take it on vacation with me, and swim.

G-shock goes to the beach, otherwise I wear it all the time except when showering.

I wear my steelfish 24/7 except when sleeping or showering.

I just got back from a beach vacation and wore it everyday in the ocean and at the pool. I also went ziplining and cliff jumping and my breitling was on my wrist the whole time. I just make sure I give it a generous fresh water rinse and a little soap after exposing it to salt or chlorine.

I wear my watches all day every day. But I shower right before I go to bed, and that's when it goes in the watch winder... On when I wake up, and off before my shower. Also when I go to the beach I don't bring a watch. I don't want to get a watch tan line. I wear dress shirts almost daily, so no tan lines to worry about.

Other than the shower, I always have a watch on. I am hopelessly constrained by artificial constructs.

Yep. My aiwolf goes to the beach, the pool, shower. The only time I did not wear my Breitling was on my escape and evasion course! I bought a timex for that!

Both my daughters took me on for a little sparring tonight in the kitchen, I was more worried about my TO then them ( they can take care of themselves!). !

Cheers

I wear my watches everywhere. Shower, pool, Bay, Atlantic ocean... I figure if I am going to spend a few thousand on a watch that I will get my money's worth and use it for everything. I do a lot of water activities and given my watch was made for water usage, it's a really good fit.

On the beach yes, in the sea yes, oddly enough take it off to shower don't know why though, after a day on the beach or in the sea I do rinse with clean fresh water.
Don't wear it to bed only because scared of scratching the wife with it.
Don't wear it to work I have a seiko for that if you saw the damage to my seiko you would know why.

I don't hesitate to wear any of my watches rated to 300m or more anywhere at anytime. My CA has seen rough duty for the last 6 years, never missed a beat. I'm more careful with those rated at 50M or less.

I dont baby any of my watches and they are all given wrist time, I do however wear two watches for certain events.

The Emergency I always wear when Im flying up country (as a passenger) in Africa, or if Im 4x4 driving/working in remote areas conducting site surveys.

My M1 is my go to watch for anything remotely wet including beach, pool or watersports activities.

The rest I just cycle through, or if I have a more formal event I usually wear the Navi or the Evolution.

I only wear the Emergency in bed, and only then if Im somewhere pretty remote. My other half complains of getting hit by my watches otherwise when Im moving around in bed at home :roll:

I dont wear anything in the shower :wink:

I have just purchased an Omega Planet Ocean (had it 10 days now) and its getting so much wrist time right now I'm considering letting one or two of the Lings go :shock:

When your watch is water resistant to 2000m why wouldn't you wear it to the beach? The shower? No, that's a bit icky somehow.

I wear my Steelfish to work,(Firefighter) when showering, at the beach and to bed. I only take it off to change it for another Breitling more suited to the occasion.

personally i never take any of my watches on vacation. i do take a gshock or just use my cell phone. i just figure if im in the ocean or in the pool there is no real reason to wear a watch.
