Thats how its meant to be worn. Get it serviced and its good to go for another 25!
After serving me for 25 years the bracelet of my trusted 16610 beater suddenly went to pieces. Never been serviced and rarely cleaned and lived a rough life at times, so I can't complain really. Good quality.Glad I didn't loose the watch though.
Have to put on a Nato and start looking for someone who can repair it.

Always nice to see when a watch of that caliber hasn't' been nursed, they are all meant to be worn to the limit.
No way that happened desk diving.
Wouldn't mind seeing how the front has weathered the years.
Excellent to have gone 25 years without a service.
Seth (The Watch Dealer) has literally just dropped my refurbished bracelet back, that also had the clasp pin replaced. Im really pleased with the whole service, nice guy!
I agree, be good to see the front. Wearing mine as I type this. What kind of beating has it been doing over the years?
used as it was built for.
would love to see the dial side shot.
have it serviced, it deserves it.
A tool watch, used as a tool. Lovely to see.
Looks like it's just the bar that has disintegrated. I would be tempted to replace that and get it back on the wrist.
Can we have a full frontal please?
Value for money over 25 years without a doubt!
I bet that watch could tell a tail or two......
I admire people who have the balls to wear a watch in this manner.
Twenty five years you say. Has the dealer handed over the warranty card yet?
Great watch! I wear my watches the same, no need to nurse them or wrap them in cotton wool, spend thousands on them and lock them up, what's the point!!!

Is the cyclops on askew? Or is it just the angle of the picture?
I admire people who don't baby their watches. I am the same.
But,there is nothing more trite or vacuous than the expression -as it is meant to be worn.
There is no ONE way. People who baby their watches are as right as those who don't.
