Oysterflex Daytona as Daily

Who uses an OF Daytona as a daily? How does OF strap holdup under daily use and what is wear to case like for these pm watches?

Thanks for comments and insight.

My Daytona is SS so it doesn’t matter but regarding PM case both my gold Patek on rubber and my gold Skydweller get scratches very easily. I don’t bother too much with it and they’ll be sorted out when the watch is serviced but it’s something you should be prepared for.

I wear mine as a daily but it's only been a few months. Clasp is showing a little wear but the case is still relatively blemish free and the strap is pristine. I practice some wrist awareness but I'm not super uptight about it.

The ceramic bezel and rubber strap make the OF Daytona a great daily wearer, and I love the fact that I can strap it on every day and enjoy it without too much worry.

Mine is mostly a daily. Clasp has some micro surface swirls. Case and rubber are both minty fresh.

Yes. I wear mine a few times a week. Love the balanced heft and feel of it.

I feel it swirls easier than SS, but I may be wrong. I have been extremely careful but I see swirls on the polished parts when I still have some immaculate SS pieces worn over the same time in the same conditions. Strap is holding up well, looks as new. I have another set that I've worn on numerous SS pieces and the RG YM that is about a year old, and it still looks brand new.
