The frequent rotation is the key for the less comfortable ones
Then there's less of a "disturbance" on the wrist and more enjoyment. Thanks for your thoughts, my friend.
Watch comfort
Enjoying the day off today with my Habring2 and had some time to ponder on some aspects of our hobby and passion. Do we have watches that don't feel as comfortable as the others, and how we deal with that. I have a small collection, and having embarked on...
I do get your point, but for me, comfort is not the most important.
Don't get me wrong, if the watch is a killer plus comfortable, then this is top. But I can live without a watch being super comfortable, because of its other qualities. Example? The Lange Datograph. Its height / diameter ratio ( 39 mm ) made that the watc...
That's quite likely true for most of us.
I suppose watches like those, which is a superb example, won't make it through a long rotation window, but brings a lot of enjoyment during the spells it stays on the wrist.
Comfort is more important for sports watches
when worn in sports or rougher activities. And also, your 2 week rotation does need a watch to be more comfy. I remember wearing my ex PT Datograph for 3 days straight and I felt an urge to change watches even though I love my Dato a lot (that is one reas...

+1 on the comfy-Factor on the wrist, but it also has to stimulate my thoughts and next..
.. importantly must be such, that I love to look down at her. A bit different are the Icons (a la Geophysic, Geomatic, Seamaster or Rolex 6542 and Explo-1 6610, just to name a few), which make us feel better and fuel our love, also. So yes, comfort is one...
No need to apologize :-)
Those are thoughts and feelings that are not tangible and makes a watch more than a watch. I can fully understand and appreciate the love for watches that carry a deeper meaning to us, even if the comfort is not perfect. Some things outweigh the others an...
Actually, the height of the Habring doesn't get in the way
It is very similar to my Omega SM300 and wears surprisingly well. One of my comfortable watches, I will add.
Comfort is important to me :)
Some fit like a glove and those I clearly prefer. For me weight is an issue and anything too heavy I\'m generally not a fan of. Hence I am a big fan of titanium Lovely Habring!
Titanium is a nice way to balance off a large watch
The Pelagos comes to mind...big, but very comfortable, even with the bracelet.
After getting a watch
That is 7mm tall (my Habring Felix), I find it very difficult to actively rotate during the week on a daily basis. I end up taking the others off after a few hours and putting the Habring back on. I basically just have to put the Habring away and force my...
Richard, You Bring Up Some...
... Good points. My Habring Foidroyante is very comfortable mostly due to the contoured lugs coupled with a wonderfully supple strap. I have a few watches that, after an extended wear, can tend to get uncomfortable on the wrist. However, this will never s...
