Good afternoon, folks. I really like Navitimers,however I wear my watches everywhere ( well, almost everywhere), however how really practical are the Navitimers? 30 m WR is quite a low rating, to be fair. TIA |

I've worn mine nearly every day for the past 17 years, except when I was deployed to Iraq. I don't wear it to the gym, the beach or the workshop, but otherwise I wear it all the time. |

Although the WR of a Navitimer could be a concern if you were a lifeguard, but in reality most of our jobs do not result in regular exposure to water. When I know that I will be exposed to water I wear one of my Superoceans, if not chances are I will choose from one of the ones below!

All of the above are worn in rotation on a regular basis. The 1959 Navitimer and the 1959 Re-edition belong to my wife. I wear the re-edition but not the original. The remaining all make it into the rotation with the Blue Sky and Pan-American versions seeing the most use! The original 1959 Navitimer sees regular use with my wife! |

The Pan-American navitimers were only released approximately 10 years ago so I would think that all are still in circulation! |

I don't get this "not suitable for daily" unless you are a professional SCUBA diver. Did I fall down and end up in the Rolex forum?
