Which watch do you wear to work around your property/home?

I wear whatever watch I've got on my wrist. Today I decided to wear a G-Shock for some deep diving on the float tank repair in the bathroom.

When I'm at home I'm not getting too messy or dirty, so I'll wear any of my watches.
The most work I do around the house is clean the barbeque or tinker with bicycle repairs.

I just wish it was as tough as a G-Shock. Maybe a future version will be. My son just dropped his on our kitchen floor (ceramic tile) and it shattered.

I just recently switched to the stainless steel version which has a crystal sapphire screen…..it’s much tougher than my previous plastic Nike version, and feels slightly heavier on wrist.

This and the 16600 have pretty much become daily wear.

The BLNR has been my daily for everything for a few years. Only time I take it off is for working on anything to do with electricity with the house or cars.

Before that it was the Explorer II for everything.

BB58 or Santos.

If it's really dirty/grimey, GShock or small casio (I always have a watch on as I don't like pulling my phone out when working to check the time)

And would expect this real working tool has seen more use that todays mainly pampered watches will see in 10 to 20 lifetimes.
