The thing is, if you are a contributor on here, the chances are you have more than one watch, in fact the chances are you have more than 10 watches so while I don't baby my Speedies, they only get worn maybe 3 or 4 days a month as I like to mix it up and wear other things which I rate also. I'm a bit promiscuous that way!

Ditto
I have a small number of watches that I would consider as "dressy/formal" wear only and one or two that are sentimental value and get worn rarely. Pretty much all the rest are daily wearers. This includes my Speedy.
So whilst my speedy doesn't get worn every day due to rotation it is definitely in that category.

Absolutely daily and weekly, in rotation with others:
office, travel, family-life, night and day.

Yes. And Speedmaster has always been the most worn watch in my collection. I have had 6 Speedmasters in the last 5 years. It just works better than anything else. Currently have this modded 105.012 CB.

(Hope this is your daily driver 😁)

Nope, I’ve never owned a 912, but I’ve come close. I did daily drive a Carrera 3.2 and an 911SC. 😉

Wear mine like it’s stolen…

The Lucky Day the strap gave away just after climbing over a bulk carrier in a remote port in Northern Australia

Need to time how long I climb over each one some days 😉

Not a "Professional", but a Speedmaster: 105.003-64

Cheers

I’ve owned my Speedmaster 345.0808 for 33 years. Over those years, it has had maybe 1 year on the wrist. Since about 2010, hardly ever worn because I knew it was time to service it. So two months ago, I stripped it and serviced it, for the first time. Since then I have worn it more that I would have in any year since I acquired it. Never, ever near a polishing wheel. All original except for the genuine Speedmaster replacement crown.

I never wear one watch more then a couple of days. There is so much more to enjoy beside the speedmasters so they get worn maybe once or twice a month. But I do love them.

That's the Silver Snoopy one. You can get direct from Omega. I got mine at the Boutique.

Personally, I wear a number of watches in rotation. Then again, most of these watches are Speedmasters. 😁

Here’s todays.

(Yes, even during a casual bicycle ride. 😎)

It's the Omega Snoopy strap from the 45th anniversary version, CWZ003436. It needs an 18mm DP clasp. I have one on my 3861.

I did for years and years ( like 20+ ) but these days I wear weekly. I fell in love w/watches that have an adjustable bracelets. For the last year, it's been a lot of Seamaster time.

Where are you flying? Watch looks great, BTW. Dunkin’? As a MA resident years past, DD not so much…

Nah that is a shark mesh, maybe the Omega 1380 with the seatbelt clasp.
