Having cca. a dozen nice watches of different values (from Poljot to Calatrava) most of the time goes to 4 of them, in order of frequency:
- CSO blue dial bracelet
- Chrono Cockpit blue dial bracelet
- IWC Pilot Chrono 3706 bracelet
- Sinn 103 St Sa bracelet
(CSO taking more than half of wrist time alone).

Best, Robert

For me it has to be my black SOH 46 on the ocean racer. Allthough my M1 avenger comes a close 2nd!

My Colt Superocean automatic. In 1997, the Superocean was under the Colt model name. I had that watch until early 2008, and it was the only watch that I wore on my wrist for over 10 years. I never even had to have it serviced, although I know that I should have :oops: Anyway, one of the links on the PRO I bracelet broke, and the new bracelets would not fit. I ended up with a Diver Pro for awhile. Later on, I traded it at my AD for a good discount on an Avenger Skyland Blacksteel Limited Edition. How I wish that I had kept that watch!
A couple of years, three Breitlings and 4 Omegas later, I now have a Rolex Explorer I as my daily wearer. It looks like this will be pretty much the only watch for me for at least 10 years, maybe more. By that time, I will be 70 years old, and maybe to celebrate I will treat myself to a new watch? For the time being, the Superocean is a fond memory for me, and the Explorer even more than makes up for it:

Have a great weekend everyone!
Cheers,
Carl

Which watch would you guys say is your longest worn daily watch

For me it was my Rolex SUB 16610 A series; wore it daily (90% of the time) for nearly 6 years!!!
I would sneak in my DJ TT and Chronomat TT (39mm) once in a while as well :wink:

My SA obviously since it's my only proper watch so far.

I must say I think I want another SA. I have yet to encounter a watch that I like more on my wrist!

I'm feeling a bit outclassed here. I wore a TAG for about 7 years, then a Wenger for the next 3 (don't laugh, I love that watch) but once I get home I'm thinking my new Blackbird will get a lot of wrist time :lingsrock:
