i don't wear watches when i sleep because it feels uncomfortable. i don't wear watches when i shower because it feels weird. i don't run or work out wearing watches because it hurts. i only take the watch off when i swim in my own pool, but if i go to a waterpark, the watch stays on.

I run between an avg. of 70 miles a week and I always wear my Timex Ironman when I workout. I want the stop watch function and honestly I sweat a lot when I run especially when it hit hot and humid during the summer.

I switch to my trusty G Shock for work out and swimming.
I typically wear my gshock or citizen to sleep... both have much better lume.

No I have no need to wear it all the time, just a personal preference.

Wear my datejust 24/7/365 unless heavy auto work or heavy landscaping. So far nothing seems to phase it.

I'll sleep with mine. My GMT is too bulky for me to wear when working out.

No to all three. I ride the Harley, golf and play racquetball with mine.
