What's the longest you've worn a watch?

I've been wearing my GBD200 all summer which I think is a new record for me. Maybe 6+ months now. When worn loose it has great airflow and doesn't get gross in sweat/water.

I have like 30 watches so it would be a bit criminal to wear the same watch for more than a week.

I’ve been wearing my beater Vostok for several months for a few reasons. I’m fine with it being dinged up at work, but for the most part I’ve worn it so much because it’s been my guinea pig—straps, bracelets, and light modding

I wore the same cheap fashion quartz watch for about 6 years before I started my Journey through real watchmaking.

I quite often go more than a day with the same watch but can't remember the last time I managed a week ☺️

That was my journey as well. I usually only had one watch and just work it. When I saw the light or got the bug (depending on your point of view), I would say a week is about all I can do before I want to wear something else.

Years. Many years.

I've been wearing my Citizen Eco-Drive Perpetual for 8 years.All day,every day.

And then one day,a year ago,i saw Nico Leonards video on Youtube,and now i have 9 watches + 1 is on its way from US .

Damn you,Youtube! 😀

Since I started collecting the longest I’ve worn a single watch is about a month. Funnily enough it was also a GBD200!

·

I too have 30 and i rarely wear a watch two days in a row. For me i just like seeing a different watch everyday...to be honest sometimes i switch of watches during the day as well. 🤦🏻‍♂️

the gbd200 is really a wrist bandit (someone told me that line, and I love it), that display, it's really comfortable, the app that lets you set up alarms on the fly. I mean, the display alone keeps other watches on their boxes. I've wore it to the beach and at pools all summer, and that display is really legible even under water.

Totally agree. Very comfy and functional. And good looking too.
