Everyday wear

I have a 2005 16200 36m datejust and a 2002 VC overseas gen 1 chrono.

I also have a IWC mark xvi pilot.

What’s would the forums daily wear being out of these (I’m office based so wear and tear minimal).

Quality of IWC below Rolex (but my wife bought it for my 40th). VC a much more heftier watch than Rolex and better finished but I worry about it’s robustness.

What would the forum advise / wear every day?

Thanks

A little bit of topic but I find omega better for everyday wear. It’s a bit heftier that you know it’s there so you won’t bang it.

Ok, date just is just better overall daily with 100m wr

I have a Seamaster 300 quartz as well! It’s probably the best for everyday wear!

Thanks everyone for replies

The VC is unique but a nice three watch lineup. I would wear what I felt like, for as long or short as I wanted and then rotate to a different watch.

I'd just wear whatever I feel like every day. None of your pieces strike me as particularly delicate or dainty...
