Thread: Most worn of '21

  1. #1

    Most worn of '21

    Unashamedly plagiarised from Hodinkee:

    What was the watch you wore the most in 2021?

    For me it was close, but the winner was my Vacheron Constantin Overseas Chronograph in steel and titanium. I treated myself to the steel bracelet and it is the perfect watch for me. (Second place was my Blancpain Bathyscaphe which I also added the steel bracelet to at considerable cost).

    The weight of the VC and comfort is spot-on.

    The chronograph is my favourite complication.

    The brand is the most discreet of the Holy Trinity (and the most affordable). And I have never seen this particular watch on anyone else.

    Beautiful watch which I didn't know I liked so much until I saw this photo.

    Looking back on the year, I guess it was the trusty Speedmaster which got seriously worn in this year (and slightly banged up!).

    I bought the Arnie at the start of the year, and have worn it the most in 2021. The reasons; it's quartz, solar powered, accurate, comfortable and makes living in lockdown a lot easier than an auto. Second was the Speedy for the same reason, manual -v- auto.

    Have a great 2022 everyone!

    For me my Sinn 857 UTC LE. Such a hard-wearing watch with its tegimented case. And very comfortable on a Nato.

    This, and by some distance. It’s also the most accurate watch I own - and in my humble opinion the finest Eddie has produced so far :)

    I am not really sure but if I were to take a guess it would be the Synchron Military. However since it’s arrival the PRS55 has been on the wrist a lot as well. Both relegating ‘better’ watches to the safe.

    I would say it was probably my Seiko King Turtle.

    This was the most worn for me. I was too busy flipping the other ones…

    That's a stunning VC, OP.

    My Sub has been my most worn, yet again:

    Probably my G-shock. Lots of home improvements, gardening and mucky child care, plus solar quartz is so convenient! Secondly place goes to the nomos club.

    No such thing for me, as it’s a 3 way tie between a Sinn U1, Damasko DC56 and 14270 Explorer.

    My Longines VHP grab and go watch. 6 seconds per year accuracy with full auto calendar, (including leap years), so there's nothing to check/change when I put it on, other than that it's still ticking.

    Best Regards - Peter

    At a guess my U1. Second place will most likely be the Seiko Arnie.

    Pretty sure it's been one of my Ming watches. The 2701 if I have to take a guess!

    I've only worn one watch this year, and then for only a few hours to see if it would charge and hold the charge (which it did):



    p.s. it's such an ugly watch in such a state that I decided it doesn't warrant a large picture

    As this is my weekend watch, and therefore worn most weeks, it would probably be this.

    My choice was limited this year as I only had four pieces in VN and then purchased two (Tudor Ceramic & Pelagos), so I guess my most worn (for the longest duration) would have been the NM Evo -



    The most often worn (almost every weekend) was the Day Date -

    Garmin 6S purchased from SC.
    Probably not going to be popular but the Horological equivalent of the TFT.....Analogue display option is my favourite though. ;)

    Are the hands and markers etc slightly blue? Or is it just the lighting?

    I think it's the light blue that makes this watch for me, but can't seem to find anything similar online.

    Either way, beautiful.

    CWC Mellor for me; an unexpected delight to wear pushing aside bulkier clunkier brethren. Wishing everyone every success in 2022.

    This one by far. Best of all, it still looks brand new.

    Shalako had one exactly like this. I tried it on and it's absolutely stunning. Great choice. Not surprised it's a favourite.

    My DA47 by some distance, whilst I did have a few others keep it in its box for a few weeks at a time it always ends up back on my wrist as the perfect blend of easily legible, quality under the radar day to day tool watch.

  36. #36
    Probably this one, as a quartz with super legible sword hands on the best electric blue dial, it gets picked up a lot.

    Thanks, it’s a great watch and so comfortable. Still looks new after 2 years, the only mark it’s ever picked up was a chip in the crystal from a clash with a diamond ring. Omega just recently replaced it and carried out a half service for free - unbelievable customer service.

    Fenix 6S I’m afraid, hardly worn a proper watch since buying this.

    Good question. Probably this
    But pro rata this has been on my wrist the most but was a late arrival so in actual days worn it’s less

    The same as every year, my CWC.





    It's my running watch.
    In the Sotadic Zone, apparently.

    In 2020 the most worn watch for me was this

    2021 was this one


    and today I am back to wearing the 2020 most worn watch again.
