The Breitling Watch Source Forums

hey justin...no i dont consider my daily a beater. but then again i dont really have a daily. Sometimes i go days without wearing a watch. but in my case i own a pitbull and she plays pretty rough so i try not to wear the watch around her. So when i do strap on the watch im usually hanging out doing nothing or shes in her crate for down time.

Yeah, I have 2 pups who like to play rough with the teeth on the forearm, wouldn't want the watch in thier mouth now that I think of it.

lol yup there goes the crystal.

I've got a bunch of very excitable Alaskan Malamutes and I always wear a watch around them - never had any problems.

My male likes to put his mouth around my wrist/forearm as some kind of weird affectionate thing when he sees me after some random time when I presume he thinks it's been a while since he saw me last. My female just licks. It's never been a problem, but after reading Boggie's post, I thought it might be a bad combination!

Thankfully not RJ.

I'd just been rubbing down a doorframe.

It was only dust. It looks worse than it is.

Thank You Ms Anez.

I'm slightly perturbed that you would think I was the original owner. That would put me in my mid 60's! This vintage Submariner is in mint condition because the person I bought it from 6 months ago had just had it professionally serviced and valleted by a Rolex trained technician.

Some interesting opinions here Guys and Gals. Thanks.

I can only conclude that I am a bit of a rogue in this instance.

It hasn't always been that way though. My first high end watch was a Rolex Sub No-date. I babied that so much that the buyer thought that this seven year old example was less than a yearr old when he saw it.

Interesting topic, I have worn my 1680 submariner (I am the original owner, it was purchased in 1975) as my everyday watch for 35 years, even at my shop where I sometimes will run a mill or a lathe. Every nick, scratch and mark on it I made, and for me, that becomes part of the charm of it.

After 35 years I wouldn't likely think twice about it either. Just like a new anything. Once you get a couple scratches on it, meh!
