My beater used to be an old skx007, until it died. Now it's an even older Hamilton Field watch.

What's your beater watch?
I have daily worn watches that get subjected to typical wear and tear and are worn through most activities that would make the typical current TRF member cringe.
But if I know I am crawling in mud, shoving my arm into dark bug infested sandstone crevices to activate levers, freefalling from a trimotor on an inflatable life raft, and handling sacred stones while traversing a 100 year old rope bridge, I’ll take off my watch and place it in my pocket prior No need to purposely subject a watch to unnecessary damage if you have the opportunity to take it off. |

of course it's not a "beater" but it's been my everyday watch for over 4 years been in several different oceans, pools, whatnot worn on snowy mountain, dry desert often the safest place for a watch is on my wrist so I kept it on and just covered it with the gloves in the photo

G shock M5610 ,Beater is a different qualification depending of the individual.In my case i know for a fact that there is no Rolex or what ever Auto mechanical movement with a steel case will make it ,learn that the hard way.

Since I no longer have an Explorer 114270, it's now a Seiko automatic or Casio digital.
I'm on the list for the new Explorer. |
