Golfing with your AP

I tend to see quite a few people hanging out in this section that enjoy 18 holes. I am curious as to who actually wears watches while playing and what it can do to the movement. I would love to wear mine while playing but I am worried the swing might muck up the A7750. So what do you guys do and has it done anything to the watch by wearing it while playing? Also congrats Rory!

Dont do it.

I agree...why put the added stress on a rep...stash it in your bag and slip it on after the round, then head to clubhouse for beverages and BS...:matty:

I think no one really plays with a ROO at the wrist. I think it is just for the wristies.

It's not just the movement. I've tried a few swings with a ROO and the AP is really a wrist breaker ;)

I tried playing with one of my AP Divers once. I cannot play with a watch. I lasted a hole. Stashed it in the valuable pocket of my bag.

This is why they make tourbies -- they can handle the abuse and keep on ticking -- ask Bubba Watson and Rafa Nadal...

Who is comfortable golfing with a ROO chrono?

Who realistically would have a watch like that in rotation, and take it to play golf? :p4gtr:

LOL.

true.

i tried AP with golf.

definetly something that is not possible.

but tried with RM and its a different breed.

its so light that after a few shoots you forget it is there.

and the RM deploy is just fantastic!

the best deploy available.

you dont need to tuck in the strap, its tight like nothing else.

Ugh, the fact there will never be time when there isn't that next AP. I am thinking of the Bee or just wait to see how those 2014's turn out (or wait to go gen with those, damn And's Safari is nice). I am hoping the Trulli will get repped but I have a feeling it won't anytime soon and that is probably my favorite AP. Thinking it will have to be FC though, I already have the Panda and none of the other SS pieces appeal to me as much as it did so I figured I should go for FC.
