Wear your watches

 
 By: Journe1304 : April 9th, 2020-20:24
My friends think I’m nuts for wearing this to the gym. But with a rubber strap, titanium case, and sporty design, I can’t think of a better place to wear it. *Note: This picture was taken before NYC’s lockdown—I urge everyone to respect social distancing ...  

Don’t you worry about dings to the case? How shock resistant is the movement?

Those would be my worries about haute horologie watches in the gym

No concerns

 
 By: Journe1304 : April 10th, 2020-13:21
The movement is aluminum, so I wouldn’t imagine it’s particularly shock resistant. But I wear this while doing moderate weightlifting rather than boxing or other high-impact workouts, so I wear it with confidence. The case already has some wear, and consi...

Time my rest periods

Haha thanks! [nt]

The reason I stopped going to the gym ;-) LOL

Very nice piece 👍

Not me

I'm all for wearing your watch, but I am not careful enough. In short time I would grab a barbell and put a nice gouge into a lug or crystal.

Fair enough—to each their own

 
 By: Journe1304 : April 10th, 2020-13:23
But I do think this one holds up well and actually looks good with some wear!

Absolutely nothing wrong with it

And good to see you doing that. This is from a couple of days ago. ...  

Exactly what I was going to say.

Hardcore man !!

This is the exception for me.

It had been many many years, maybe 20 since I’d worn a real watch doing activities. Back then, I used to wear a Sea-Dweller all the time. It was my only watch and I wore it all the time and everywhere. Since I got the Centigraphe Sport I’ve worn it severa...  

I love it!

 
 By: Journe1304 : April 10th, 2020-13:24
Glad to see a Centigraph in a sport setting!

Awesome!

 
 By: batholith : April 10th, 2020-14:15
And great to see these wonderful watches being used as everyday, do everything watches.

The issue with wearing a watch working out was more the weight of the watch, it moving on the wrist etc.

 
 By: Jay (Eire) : April 10th, 2020-18:31
With the CTS weight is not an issue, and by extension without any meaningful weight it moving around a little doesn’t bother me either. If I had an RM I think I’d wear it working out too.

I understand.

 
 By: batholith : April 10th, 2020-20:33
In any case, looks great.

Waow, Nice! [nt]

 
 By: ChristianDK : April 12th, 2020-01:02

I'm suddenly more supportive of this than I had been

 
 By: blau : April 10th, 2020-04:04
These days, I'm having a lot of, "Life's short, if you want to [xxxxxx], just do it" kind of thoughts.

I’m with you there!

 
 By: Journe1304 : April 10th, 2020-13:25
Hope you and yours are healthy, and that your watches are still getting good use.

Looks good on the rubber strap 👍...

 
 By: Cpt Scarlet : April 10th, 2020-07:02
Enjoy !

Good idea 👍 [nt]

And they also said it could handle surface level swimming.

 
 By: Journe1304 : April 10th, 2020-13:28
I’m not sure I’ll ever take this into the pool, but I appreciate Journe’s confidence in the ‘sport’ in ‘LineSport’.

Might have been!

 
 By: Journe1304 : April 10th, 2020-16:45
I was there a couple months ago to order a new strap for this Octa Sport, and then again before the lockdown to prod a colleague to getting his grail...

Guess not.

 
 By: TheMadDruid : April 10th, 2020-17:53
Who got what grail?

Well, the prodding has yet to pay off in full, but..

 
 By: Journe1304 : April 11th, 2020-18:56
his grail is this Octa Divine: ...  

Looks great on that strap!

 
 By: batholith : April 10th, 2020-14:16
Changed the entire look and character. For the better, in my opinion.

Thank you!

 
 By: Journe1304 : April 10th, 2020-17:44
I love a rubber strap on any watch, so to get one on an FPJ was a treat for me.

That is awesome!

I remember hearing a story about this lady who had this beautiful set of bone China plates but because of how beautiufl they were, she did not use them at all, not even once. So they remained in their box and then her house caught on fire and she regrette... 

Love that story!

 
 By: Journe1304 : April 12th, 2020-18:07
Or hate that story haha—such a shame to see these beautiful things go to waste...

Thank you and agreed!!

 
 By: Spencer Karrington : April 13th, 2020-06:48
I hope she was able to buy another set of beautiful set of porcelain pieces and is using them

A real sport watch

 
 By: lykoxx : April 12th, 2020-00:37
