Do you wear a “hot model” as your daily beater?
I don’t have a “daily beater” but I rotate my nice watches with my BLRO getting the majority of my wrist time
Am I in the majority wearing my nice watches with and without an occasion or do the or do others have a “daily beater” and keep their nicer ones for special occasions?

I don’t know if the 126600 could be considered “hot,” but I like it and it never leaves my wrist.
I’m at the 200 yard range weekly and putting things on targets with a pretty strong punch...and it’s never misses a beat. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Rotate LVc and BLNR. Bought them to born worn.
Nice to know there is good resale value in the (unlikely) event I want a change, but not changing my approach. |

Beating hot models isn't my thing. Whatever floats your boat though.

Absolutely. My BLRO gets a lot of wrist time these days, almost more than all of my other watches combined. I maintain a very active rotation between the BLRO, 116519LN, Explorer I and Patek 5712/1A. BLNR and 114060 less frequently, but still come into rotation every now and then.
