How Often do you wear your rolex

[116520]

We wear watches, safes don't wear watches.
Watches tell us time, they don't tell safes time.

The day i got my Rolex, it with me everyday unless i go swimming with my family ( i wear my old faithfull Tag 2000 or Casio G8000 ) or play golf in JB. Safe are for us to put our jewellery, ah beng gold chains and life insurance ( Ex gf photo too )

If you don't love your Rolex, why do you buy in the first place leh ?

Sharing info

When I was younger, I had a tutone Datejust. I kept the watch in a safe mainly because I found it too flashy. Eventually I sold the watch, at a loss, but never spent a single cent maintaining it.

If worn regularly, one has to put aside $100 per year or $500 every five years for servicing.

Then, I bought a SS submariner with date, and used it daily. It's distinctively Rolex, and I love this watch because it serves my daily use, and I even use it to swim. I thought to myself, what the heck, why own a submariner and not allow it to touch even the water in the swimming pool. Moreover, one can use it to run or walk and keep track of the minutes using the bezel.

Worn less regularly is a Vintage 6694. It has been serviced and look brand new. I wear it more to ensure that the mechanical parts within are kept in good running order. It not an expensive watch, but i treat this old lad with respect and safely at home in a safe

I also own a Omega limited edition 5oth anniversary moon watch. I use it too but don't take for a swim because it has less depth tolerance. I like this watch because it a winding watch which I fiddle with when bored. It spends some time in the safe.

Normally I'll wear it end of the week. Other time, just my 8yrs old adidas or speedmaster. Yes, agreed that have to be more careful, especially in crowded places like mrt or shopping mall.

Friends of mine who were / are in the Aussie Special Forces Units that worked in Afghanistan 2001 - 2004 ( and high paid $$ ) were buying Subs ex USA ( free mail to the bases ) on a regular basis.... they were wearing these during full combat missions !!! ( yes under clothes.... ).

None the less these tough guys were using a tough watch... not to worry !!

You remind me of someone

That's cool... the nice thing about Rolexes..the more you wear them the nicer they look, more character added when your watch looks worn and bezel discolored. Can't wait for my SUB to have the vintage look. Been wearing my SUB to work as much as possible.
