How many of you...

wear your watch to bed...

Just curious to find out.

I wear a watch all the time including when I go to bed... the only time I take it off is when I go into the shower.


PS. Wearing this one tonight.

Always off at home and placed in the same place on the dresser..

When I travel I will wear it if I'm not 100% comfortable with the accommodations.

Wear it to bed and in the shower. No reason to take it off for either.

Rarely, and when I do, I usually remove it in the middle of the night because it is annoying me.

I take mine off for showers, sex, and bed. I've no use for it in any of those circumstances.

Rarely, and only under one condition. I've worn it to bed ONLY while traveling and the hotel alarm clock isn't working correctly, or is missing. I never wear it to bed at home, my wife would think that I am 'loony' !

I wear mine to bed on deployments because I do wake up in the middle of the night and wonder what time it is.

Not to bed cause I might scratch it by hitting it against something during my sleep.

Rarely..only if staying away from home, as I don't sleep well and want to know the time; also, I will at home a few times a year when I go through a time of not sleeping well. That said, it is my Omega on a strap so I can wear in very loose.

Now i dont see the point of owning a watch and not wearing it. I never take mine off save to wash my wrist and even then i only loosen it.
my last gmt i had on for a year and never took it off once, my previous sub i haddent taken off in several years!

did take off mt GMTIIc last week for a mosquito bite under the bracelet!!

When I tried to wear my Rolex to bed, the wifey said: "That stupid watch or me?"

Now I sleep on the couch!!

I would say that I wear my watch for 90% of the time.
The only occasions that I don't are when in the shower,running and some least savoury jobs.
