Rolex wrist-awards...Bronze medal goes to Great White 1665
So, over the last year, how much time did any watch spend on your wrist? Is there a clear winner in terms of wrist-time spent on the wrist?
In bronze position for me....and just looking at Rolex.....
Maybe somewhat of a surprise...the Great White 1665. Such a lovely watch to wear....its had more than an average amount of time on the wrist.
Silver and gold to follow....
What have been your biggest wrist-time Rolexes?

Having only 2 watches...
... I can give only a Gold and a Silver medal. The silver goes to my 1665. As you said, a FANTASTIC vintage piece. One that really checks all the boxes, especially that of great dive watch history. Although I do need to try to hunt down an original T-39 f...
Who needs bronze when you have those two!
I think my Rolexes get more wear than any other make precisely because you can throw just about anything at them. I know exactly what you mean.
I don't blame you, Nicolas!
My friend, if I had that BC, it would be my gold, silver, and bronze! Well, except for when I went swimming... but you get the point! Also, it is a 7922 BC? I thought it was a 7924 BC? Regardless, what a beauty. As you know, I am a HUGE fan of that watch!...
More Rare than that 7924?!
That one is a pretty rare beast! Can't wait to see it, Nico! Best, -Mike
Silver medal to my 5512
Waited so long to find the right 5512..... lets put it this way...its been on my wrist a lot this year! ...
Will you add another gilt Sub, but a with a different dial, now?
Or will it be your only one ( with crownguards, I mean ) ?
I am not looking to add to my Subs now....
Very happy with the gang i have....covers all bases that I need. Similarly happy with SDs. So will start to look beyond these two types
Gold medal..... of course....16660
More hours on the wrist than any other watch for me this year. So usable in so many different ways...i just love this watch... ...
Objection! You cannot put three Subs on the Podium.
When you have such a delicious Explo 6610 Red, a cool PN, and so on! Reconsider, Your Honor. Or I make appeal immediately. Non mais! ;)
But....this is a factual competition....
........which watches spent most time on the wrist....fact is fact. Law deals with fact *(LoL), right?
No objections....
....its the king of 2013 for me! Now a friend of mine wants me to get him one!!!
