I was curious and thought it might be interesting to see how everyone wears their Breitling.

My favorite watch of all time is my Breitling Emergency, yellow face. I wear it daily...but must admit...I stress at times. If I'm not wearing my Breitling, my second choice is a Tissot T-Touch Expert.

With that said...what is your preference?

I wear mine regularly/daily and am pretty comfortable wearing it daily, but still do stress a little bit. Just enough to still subconciously tuck me arm in around corners/doors etc.

Daily. I don't really think about possible damage but probably do have the WIS habit of tucking the arm etc.

Daily. I don't really stress it, but an aware of things that might scratch or dent it.

I wear my Super Avenger every day and love it.
It has been well used over the past couple of years, including hitting it off the stair bannister and breaking the bezel rotation! (fixed by BUK under warranty) Go BUK :)
Just need to find a good Jeweller that will polish my Pro 2 bracelet as I feel it needs it.

Yep! Hit mine on the car door regularly! Mine was just serviced...No matter how careful I am, I can already see those little hairline scratches in the band and in the crystal coating in the right light. But there's nothing else I'd really rather wear either!

I wear my navitimer world on a daily basis and I stress a bit. My buddy just bought one and he thinks I'm crazy for wearing mine every day. What's the point of owning such a fine watch if you don't enjoy it.

I wear a nice watch daily and I don't fret about it. I'm also guilty of the sub-conscious arm tuck.

I bought my first last month and thought I would alternate a couple days a week, but there has not been a day I don't have it on. I can't get enough of it, can not imagine a day not wearing it.

One Breitling which I wear almost every day except on occasional days I wear my Seiko divers...so 29 out of 30 days. I purchased a few silicone blocks from Bergeon cleaning kits from Veraet and polish from Prism, and refinish it on a monthly basis, insured it, and don't worry about it at all.

Not necessarily my Breitling, but a nice watch, Rolex, Omega, Breitling, daily. The only stress I have is ensuring that they all get equal wrist time.
