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.

I wear one around my 67-02

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

Glad you're back, Padi!

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

To protect a Fossil watch? LOL.

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.

no you have it on the wrong way, The fossil is supposed to protect the wrist band!

Blansky · 22 November 2019, 07:19 AM

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.

Kowaco · 22 November 2019, 11:24 PM

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.

It doesn't seem as though any of the items picturedin this thread would be rigid enough to protect from an impact that would cause a deep gouge.

Deityjazz · 23 November 2019, 03:06 AM

Nah, don’t wanna stress my boy

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.

I put a condom on my watch so it doesn't make baby watches.

Larry302 · 23 November 2019, 11:09 AM

I wore my Explorer II while working all the time , I worked for the FD, a Lt. on a Truck co. To be exact.
