This question gets asked a lot. I'm not quite sure what difference it makes to anyone.

THe answer is not usually.

Sometimes I fall asleep with a watch on, Rolex or not, and I will wear it throughout the night, but it's rare.

Yes if im wearing it. I am wearing my OMEGA seamaster at the moment though. It has great lume which is good for a quick time check.

Only if I forget to take it off. If I want to know the time during the night I have an old digital clock on one side of my bed, and my iPhone on the other. My Sub spends the night on my kitchen table, ready to be put on after breakfast.

I used to until I got a smart watch that tells me how much I slept over night.

I can’t even sleep with my Apple Watch (tried with 3rd party app for sleep tracking). Was super uncomfortable. Can’t imagine a Rolex.

Curious for those that do, was there period where you had to get used to it, or just able to sleep with it since day one??

It's there when I go to bed and there when I wake up but I can't be 100% sure it's there while I'm asleep.

Only by mistaken when I fall asleep watching TV or something.

We sleep like cats in this house, half the time someone sleeps on the sofa. Most of the time my 8 year old daughter gets into our bed some time between her bedtime and ours and we end up in a different bed somewhere.

I even made sure she had a king size bed just because I know I will probably end up in it so much after someone else got in mine and she would never be in it.

I actually slept sat up in an arm chair last night until 5am with all the lights on and a dog on my lap. By the time I woke up it wasn’t worth getting in an actual bed. Had an explorer on.

This question gets asked a lot around these parts

My standard answer is yes. In the night, I may need to make a quick break for it.

Thanks.
I tried sleeping once but couldn't open the case back so went back to my bed!

Don't ever wear your Rolex, you could scratch it! Only keep it in a safe, the longer the better. Most just flip them the very next day after buying for a big profit.

Always, and showers too, and off-road biking, kayaking, in the ocean...

...though I take it off when making love, as it might get damaged :)

For me, a watch is very uncomfortable while sleeping. I have a Citizen Nighthawk EcoDrive on a watch stand for time checks. The lume is bright and lasts 8 or 9 hours.
