a friend one day kinda asked should I be wearing my Rolex everyday all the time, and should I be looking over my shoulders. It doesn't actually occur to me till then. Well, what do you guys thing, should I go on wearing and enjoying it, does not matter if it gets all scratched up (not intentionally) or just box it? 8)

I remember reading article somewhere, if you can’t afford to buy two of the same watches at the same time, then you can’t afford the watch. I can’t agree more. So if you were to buy a watch which you deem “too precious” to wear and only bring it out during special occasions, then you don’t have a watch where you will enjoy. You only buy that said watch to show off...to bring you more grief than joy as you have to be sooooo careful every time you wear it. Afraid of scratches laaa. Afraid of it being stolen la...afraid, full stop! You buy a watch to wear, to enjoy and to create memories with. Watches are not investments, not show pieces and definitely not something “precious”. It’s a tool...maybe a statement as to what your lifestyle is and to further show your personality. Buy it, wear it, trash it and enjoy it.I couldn't agree more! Many people want to show but worry here and there. I used to be like that when first getting into watches, but I realized there is no fun if wear it so carefully. Since it will get scratches and hairlines anyway, why not just wear it and enjoy it.

Some people enjoy the collection process, or just the thought of owning it, or owning just to take it out from safe to admire the aesthetics of it, or even buying to mark a certain important date.
No point forcing yourself to wear. Best indicator is to lay out all your watches at dresser and see which watch would you reach out first in the morning without thinking.

I don't think you should trash it eh...

From a safety perspective of having to look over your shoulder, that's a seperate topic.
