Safe Queens, you have any?
Posted: 12 Nov 2011 00:22
To me, a watch is a safe queen when i wear it less than once every few months, and it is always left in the safe or a locked display when not on wrist (so it is even less accessible).
I always make it a point to wear my watches, and even so, i do have a safe queen (a Jaeger RG MC). Unsure if it is an excuse, but i find it too fragile to wear daily, and too expensive to replace/repair. And somemore i'm not staying at my own residence 3 days a week; the lack of a safe at my home would mean that i lock the watch at my parent's flat, making it even more troublesome to fetch and wear.
As to other watches i own, i find them robust enough for frequent wear, and not too expensive to repair should i damage it somehow... think i may just sell my safe queen away soon, it deserves more wrist time.
what about you? whats your safe queen story?
