I don't have a daily beater everything gets worn, some might get more wrist time than others but I try my best to be fair to them all

Ditto with my 007. Otherwise I rotate between black dial exp ii and white dial Omega AT depending on my mood and whatever is planned for the day.

Is this considered as a hot model? Because I'm wearing it now at work.

Of course, i wear all.
Come on, do Rolexes also pay dividends these days :D Watches are not investment despite of some appreciation of few thousand dollars/euros/sterlings. It is nice that these pieces retain value and are good quality, but there is no way i could compare my watch collection to any of my real investments.

Used to be Batman and DaytonaC in rotation. Will soon be DaytonaC and BLRO but I'm guessing DaytonaC more because BLRO seems slightly more formal due to the bracelet and I typically dress casually.

If I do anything truly beater worthy I put on an old Steinhart which is rarely. Most of the time one of the 3 Rolex grace my wrist.

Any Rolex is not a beater but that being said I wear my Sub C almost daily and rotate it with my Omega Aqua Terra which is also not a beater

Don’t see them as a beater. I usually wear my LV on the Weekends. My daily is the GMT 116710LN.

My 16610 is truly a beater for me, definitely not the most desirable piece out there, but it's perfect for me

I don't consider any watch a "beater" as I always wear carefully. But my go to piece is my Sub. Comfortable, adjustable, and just feels right.

Not sure if my sub c is considered a hot model but I literally wear doing everything! Gardening, running, swimming, bike riding, you name it!
You pay the big bucks you might as well use it! Don’t baby it! A Rolex is meant to go through it! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I don't think I have a "hot model".
I think of something like a ss blro, blnr, hulk, Daytona-C, etc when I think of a hot model. I have a z-blue and a blro. |

My Sub 16803 is my daily, rotate it with my 16600 occasionally, but it is so comfortable and versatile, it gets 99% of wrist time

Do you wear a “hot model” as your daily beater?
This is my beater though I did put a better strap on it for comfort.
My non-beater: Also, the beater only get worn when needed. Hanging around the house, running errands, etc. |

I’m the kind who hates scratches on my much loved watches, it just irritates me, so do my best to avoid. For those ‘high risk’ activities I’ve got the tool for the job.
