Only you know why you bought it and if you want to use it as the tool watch / beater it is meant to be or if you want to keep it tucked away in NOS condition...

As long as you don't replicate what a guy over in the Patek section is doing... This one proudly keeps spreading wrist shots of his Aquanaut fully decked out with rough-cut self-made stickers for protection that don't even fit very well. SMH... Too each their own of course...

Don’t understand why would someone buy a watch and not wear it. When I bought my Sub, I walked out of the store with it on my wrist. To each their own I suppose.

The question is, what was the reason why you purchased this NOS piece to begin with ?

Do what you want. It is your watch. No different than people who have big collections that stash watches in the bank vault for months at a time.

Stickers off. Otherwise, put watch in glass case.

Maybe that’s a question to ask grandchildren, they’ll be the ones who will probably benefit the most... think of the enjoyment you will miss out on not wearing it
