About how so many people are afraid of their watches these days. Perhaps it is due to the "flipping culture" or seeing watches as an "investment" but the aversion to living with your watches is a head scratcher to me. How many dive watches never see a drop of water? Or even worse, how many never get the plastic peeled off (or new plastic added)!
To me, watches are meant to worn and enjoyed. They will get scratched and dinged. And that's okay, because it means they have lived and built memories. They have fulfilled their purpose.
I understand that some people see each ding as a something that devalues their watch but, to me, a watch that sits in a safe is truly worthless.
Here's to the crazy ones; Here's to wearing your watches. Here's to living life!
So does anyone else live their life with their watches as opposed to living your life around your watches? Let's see some watches being worn!
Wear your watches in the best of health, friends.

Maybe a shark comes up
I had a great white shark encounter once while swimming. It was harrowing.
Fantastic shot!!
And the fact that you've actually been to the north pole is really amazing. It's on my bucket list.
Amen brother!
Kind of like having a fun car and never driving it for fear of dirt. I've always promised myself that if something is too precious to enjoy as intended, I'll just skip it. Others may disagree and that's fine too.

I've said before...
...that I have a friend who wears his Patek 5120 to the gym 4 or 5 times a week, leather strap and all : )
I truly admire your philosophy however I’m not sure I would’ve picked that reference for the job at hand. I have no problem with more sports /tool related watches getting down and dirty
I do what I do with what I am wearing.
My watches should conform to my life, not the other way around is how I see it.
