Hi all.

a serious question; I have a Seamaster 300MC. LOVE it! I also ride a Harley (which vibrates like crazy). Will it damage the movement wearing while riding?

thanks

I had a Seamaster deville from the 1960s which was my daily wearer for over a decade (A real one watch life), and I rode an early 1960s Vespa all over LA, and never had any trouble at all.

I wear my speedmaster mk 2 while on my heritage. I have it on a rubber strap. The heritage is counter balanced, it shakes very little.
