I have a Casio for that type of activity. I know my Submariner can take anyting I could throw at it......it's just the Casio is so light and comfortable for exercise and yardwork.

Padi, this is cool and all but I’m thinking the 4mm is a tad to thick for my liking

Those diamond-encrusted watches could do some serious damage to industrial machines and parts. And especially to windows.

Just a guess, but I'm doubting the person working on industrial machines and parts or unloading automobiles is wearing a diamond encrusted watch...

I know the OP’s question sparked a lot of input - some derisive, some otherwise - but I’ll share this for your benefit.
I did a lot of damage to a 116520 I had back in 2008-09 race season because I didn’t protect it at the track. On one occasion a deep gouge to the bezel that couldn’t be polished out. Quite expensive. So I did begin to wear one of these over the watch while working in the paddock and pit lane. When racing was over for the day, just pulled it off and went to the hospitality. BTW, worked great at wiping the brow whilst bleeding the brakes in Summer’s heat. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

OMG. I just could never wear that due to the horrible tan lines.
Have some self respect, people. Gotta draw a line in the sand somewhere. |

I used to see a lot of those in the military. Protects the watch, but also prevents glare or luminous dial from being seen. That neoprene one looks pretty useful.

Anyone Wear One of These While Working?

In my case it was me pulling my arm out of the way when a driver unexpectedly pressed the ignition switch. So it wasn’t an impact per se. Any cover would’ve deflected the piece of metal that caused the damage. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro
