Do you have a winder JJ or do you just set them when you wear them?

It looks like some of the gold plating is beginning to wear off around the bezel

There is a solution and it has been done before: do like good ol' Diego and wear them both at the same time! One left, one right No more Subby got jealous or Yammy is in tears, problem solved You might even start a new trend and become famous

Frankly, I would love to wear a watch on each hand...something I did think about a very long time ago.

Thanks, Daren...quite true, because I take it out just once in a week or so, it seems all the more attractive each time.
