I wear my swiss gear usually during the work week. At night they reside in the closet.
I'll usually put them in the gun safe on weekends and wear my garmin. |

I just leave them on the console or kitchen counter. Opening the safe every day sounds like a pain

I usually leave my watch on all day unless I'm going to the gym, sleeping, or showering.

Stop reading my mind. This is exactly how I do it, other than it's my home office rather than the night stand. Got a paint and spackle stained Casio G-shock I wear when doing the rough stuff.

I was wearing my two week old SD43 while I was drilling into masonry. My entire arm and watch were covered in masonry dust. The dust got under the watch. To this day, four years later, every time I look at the back of the watch with all of the micro scratches I still get pissed.
Another time I was splitting wood and half way in I noticed I was wearing my Omega Planet Ocean. It kept erratic time after that. Sent it in for service and they had to replace the balance wheel shaft. The pivots bent. I now take off my watches whenever I’m doing anything major around the house using tools. |

I wear a one of my Rolex or my Zenith every day to work (office) and on the weekend. I wear no watch when I'm doing anything physical. This way none of my watches are hit hard or abused, just tiny scratches or office type scuff, nothing serious or that matters. I wear them all. It's the way I balance it.

Insurance FTW! My Batman was appraised for way above what I paid for it, that’s my only consolation if it ever does get stolen or lost |

Majority of the collection stations, Safe all the time. I have three daily wear which rotate in and out. This is the only one that ever leaves my wrist, and that is for a shower.

Half the joy of owning a Rolex is that it's wearable in almost any given situation. I wear my submariner on a tropic strap and I basically only take it of when I skate.
Rolex isn't a luxury watch, you only pay a luxury price (these days). #paradox |

I tend to just keep wearing my watches whatever I’m doing. I wore my Daytona for 2 weeks straight whilst on holiday last Summer (bare given it a good clean each day to remove suncream etc…) and I treat my AP Diver the same.
I rarely wear my dress watch, so much so that more than once I’ve been stood in the shower only to realise that I’m wearing a leather strapped watch . Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I have a microfiber cloth on the end of the kitchen counter. I put my watch there when I take it off.

It’s usually more the opposite: I put my Rolex on when I come home from work unless I’m planning to do something really perilous like using tools in tight spaces or so.
I rarely wear the Rolex in a work setting as that’s one of the few watch brands that people give you the side-eye for. I usually wear my Speedies at work. Nobody knows what those are. |
