on: when sleeping on the car (not driving) and airplane, in the hotel, and anywhere I am not at home.
off: when sleeping at home; taking a shower; cleaning it...

I tend to move a lot in my sleep, so when I'm home I usually take it off, but when traveling my watch never leaves my wrist even when I sleep

A very broad selection of answers, mine stays on as I don't have a clock radio with the time on it, the more lume the better if I wake up at night and want to know the time.

I never wear a watch while sleeping at night. We used to have a metal head board which could do major damage.

Mine comes off at night, unless I'm traveling in which case it never comes off.

Habits vary. I take my watch off when I get home in the evening and put it back on in the morning before I leave for the day.

Wearing it at night won't hurt it. What you do is up to you.

Do not sleep with watch on. Goes on the winder at night. Use the room safe when traveling. If there is no safe I may sleep with it depending on the location.

No I only take my watches off when entering the shower or engaging in something likely to cause any damage, otherwise I wear it 24/7

I have found one advantage by taking my Explorer 39mm off at night and that is, it reduces the amount of time gain from two seconds a day to one second day or better.
At night I position the watch crown down.
So over a week it's a gain of 7 secs or better, which I much prefer rather than about 14 secs or so.
But perhaps I am over fussy about my Rolex gaining time!

I wear mine, 24/7, unless my lady friends request that I take it off. Apparently, it scratches them, at times ��

I usually wear my new acquisitions to bed for a week....Everything is so fresh and new...and beautiful.
Then the honeymoon phase wears off and it goes on the winder before bed.

Do you take your watch off when you go to sleep?

I take my watch off when I go to sleep, but if you want to wear it that's cool too.
