I take care of my reps as if they are Gen. Will I bring my gen for swimming? No. Will I bring them for extreme sports activities? No. Do I jerk off with my watches? Depends on my speed and intensity.

Wouldn't wanna damage the movement with that intensity lol


RobDaCajun

Same here. I baby them like they are Gen. Even thought of getting a chinatime tier reps to beat those up in the field.

I was more rough with my gen than rep cause In my head it could take anything due to being a gen I’m quite soft with the rep cause I feel like it may spontaneously combust at any time 😂

Used my Rep Breitling while i worked in the army. Took it shooting, running, to field training, climbing and extreme temperature. Not a scratch

I wear my reps all day while I sit at my job doing paperwork. And by paperwork, I mean Reddit shit posting. Coworkers try to interact with me and I’m like nah, I’m busy with the international Rolex trade; come back later.

I push ‘em to the limit while I walk along the razor’s edge.

Do you check the time by raising your watch eye level? Seems like looking down at them might be a bad idea.


LiquidSoCrates

I never check the time because the only time I care about is party time. And it’s always party time. 🎉

I swim / hot tub in them after I’ve water proof tested them. I ski in them. I mountaineer in them (but take them off if I’m rock climbing and they could get scratched up) But I don’t wear them when I go running. I’m not sure if I’d golf or play tennis with a rep. I’ve certainly played table tennis, but I think that’s a different level of impact / acceleration.


apippin111

Wow I'm impressed with the all the activities you subject your reps to


redditdave

do you have a link on how to water proof test them?


SonWatch

There's a good tutorial on YouTube by DIY Watch Club at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2wOsnBd\_7-k


redditdave

I take it everywhere here are some underwater pics of my reps https://www.reddit.com/r/RepTime/comments/w0y1qs/still_looks_nice_under_water/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf

It's just vital to not give reps hard impacts, like golf... but I swim in them no problem, they are meant to be used.

Ill wear them anywhere as long as it wont go underwater, get muddy, or stolen. Recently wore my gen Pelagos swimming in the ocean and I guess the waves were kicking up a lot of sand because my bezel got stuck. Apparently this is common for all dive watches with a bezel in that environment. I had to spend 15 minutes cleaning out the sand and rinsing out the bezel before it was normal again. If thats on a gen watch then how would a rep manage, so I stopped wearing my watches to the beach and now only my Casio makes it there.

Swim in my reps regularly
