Do you shower/bath with your rolex?
I understand if you have a sea dweller or maybe even a submariner, but just curious who does and doesn't?

I usually take it off if I'm at home. Unless i wanted to give it a wash or if I'm on a trip at a hotel.

No, no reason to.
I have done so at the beach to get salt and oil off but that is a special circumstance

Not all the time, but if I need to clean it in a pinch I do (leave one of my watch "toothbrushes" in there too)

Dang. I shower with a Rolex on the wrist daily. Sometimes twice daily. I jump in the pool with them, too. Been doing this since 2001. It's a Rolex swimpruf watch fer cryin' out loud.
Never, ever had a problem. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I prefer to shower with soap!
 My watch goes on as I am leaving the house.

When I'm traveling yes. Prefer to just leave it on my wrist. Seems most bad things happen off the wrist.

Normally I don't wear my watch when I shower. But occasionally I forget I have it on and then it stays on.

99% of the time no but thats not because it can't take it...mostly because I shower in the morning before I put my watch on. Most rolexes are well tested to stand a simple showering...

I've showered with my Rolex watches ON MY WRIST for the past 35 years.....every single night.
Yes, I owned a Submariner and 40mm Explorer-II (but gave them to my daughters).....but now own a pair of 42mm Explorer-II's and shower every day with one of them. Good way to keep them clean and I also brush to clean them in the shower. Also sleep with them on my wrist.... |

Unless I'm rotating a watch, they never leave the wrist......so yes, shower/bathe with them all the time!

If my watch is exposed to salt water then I will shower with it on to clean it off well. Otherwise, I do not shower with a watch on.
