Larrykelley11's observation about a neighbor wearing a Patek Philippe Aquanaut during yard work sparks a relatable debate among collectors: when is a watch too precious for manual labor? This discussion delves into the practicalities and philosophies of wearing luxury timepieces in everyday, potentially strenuous, situations. Larrykelley11's initial query invites the community to share their personal boundaries and justifications for protecting their prized possessions.
I’m not sure that I’d wear my Casio , doing yard work lol
Light work is totally acceptable!
John Mayer talking about cleaning up dog poop in a PP.
But I’d never do such manual labor with a gorgeous royal oak. There, now my allegiances are clear to all 😁
including yard. Exceptions: I will not wear a vintage for a damaging job. I will not wear a watch when painting, simply because it's the only damage that will be really hard to clean w/o service.
