I keep my watch on all the time besides while I’m sleeping as I’ve noticed that’s when it’s get the most scratched somehow and I also wake up to the PCL’s all greasy or smeared somehow.
I swim in the pool and ocean with it on no problem. |

I don"t wear it while at work. Too many chances for scratches or dings. Otherwise, I usually wear it running errands, going out or mostly anywhere. I"ll remove it for work around the house. I wear it more often than not.

My Rolex comes off before bath time, before bed and before any activity that may damage the watch or where the watch may cause damage.
My Rolex also comes off if I do not want to give someone the impression that I am wealthy and it might compromise my bargaining position. I am not wealthy so this is just being honest. |

I take mine off to shower for the same reasons I take my socks off. Water won't hurt my socks but why have them in the way?

I take it off to sleep, shower, hit golf balls, shoot, or anything else that might cause undue/avoidable wear and tear. Desk diving is unavoidable but it’s under the cuff most of the time.

I find it weird to never take it off but to each his/her own.

I don't shower or sleep with a watch on. Other than that, I have one on my wrist.

You mean you don't check your watch while working on your game??

I wear mine day and night. I have a habit of checking the time every time I wake up through the night, which is a lot. I don't wear them in the shower very often though. The only "work" activities I take it off for is swinging a hammer or an axe. Everything else (golfing, shooting, shoveling snow, running the lawnmower, etc) is a go!

My watch, whichever I am wearing at the time, only comes off when I shower. Sleeping, working, working out, yard work, gardening etc. all with the watch on.

Comes off at all times at home, never wear to bed, or in shower... but I do wash it every few days with soap and water.

It’s off for sleeping and showering, otherwise it stays on.

I used to keep it all the time especially when sleeping. But in my first Rolex, the GMT, it got bumps and scratches everywhere and it turned out that I hit my watch while sleeping . My other Rolexes look fine compared to my first since I remove my watch while sleeping now. I also remove it in the shower.

I personally can only wear my OP39 on all night. Not used to my BLNR for the full night. Feel the need to take my watch off.

I take mine off when boxing.
When you check your gloves for any slight tears which could cause an eye injury, I think it's only courteous to your opponent to take the BLNR off too. |
