Me neither. I'm on my second Omega Seamaster 2531.80.00 (the first was stolen...) and I wear it every single day, all the time. The only time I take it off is when I'm twirling spanners under my car. Sure, it's picked up a few scratches along the way, but that doesn't bother me one bit.

The primary purpose of a watch is so that it can tell you the time when you're wondering what time it is. Watches can't do that locked away in a box.

Other than my wedding band, it's the only piece of jewelry on me and I'll be wearing it on my deathbed, thankyouverymuch.
