A few years ago, I got poison ivy on my wrist in two spots. Since then when I wear my SeaDweller, after a few days, I will start to have a rash exactly where the poison ivy was. My remedy was I to switch out all the links out for aftermarket 316 links. I kept my oringnal clasp as that isn’t an area that is affected, and now I can wear the watch 24/7 for months with no problem.
Poison Ivy can cause a nickel sensitivity. I haven’t found anything on the net to prove this, but would love to hear from a dermatologist what they think. I doubt it’s ever been documented as it’s an obscure watch nerd topic.
