Protection film for watches
Just a thought... if you can wrap an entire car in matte or gloss paint protection film why doesn’t anyone do it for watches?
Would anyone opt for this if it was pretty much invisible and covered every link, clasp and watch case? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Because nothing is hitting my watch at 60 mph. Wear the watch or don't, this is beyond silly.

That's what she said too and now I'm paying child support.

I remain tempted to buy those film protectors just for my bracelet clasp. They're terribly overpriced though

I'm the crazy guy that does this. Buy a few feet of that film on Amazon and cover the clasp. Its invisible and in 2 years it will be good as new.

Nope, they are just tools for me and tools get used.

I am one of the few who do it on the clasps. Why not? It is extra protection and hardly noticeable.

Rolex put a lot of time into crafting, and polishing your watch. I want to enjoynit to the fullest without a clear film detracting from the brilliance of the shine and sheen. Covering it is like your girlfriend wearing a beach wrap over a bikini ... it’s way hotter without |

Yarg. This again? Get a Casio - they're already plastic. Metal is where I'm at.

Nope. Ever seen the silly pics of a plastic covered sofa? Same dumb mentality. Wear the watch, don't let it wear you. It is just a material possession, nothing more.

Don’t need protection.
Got a vasectomy.
