    Everyday, sure

    Beater? I would argue, no. A beater to me is something I would wear while fixing the sink or cutting a piece of wood or something. I would take the tank off in those situations.

    Daily sure, but don’t beat it up because I hope to buy a used tank in decent condition someday so please everyone keep them looking nice for me ;)

    Wore my Tank Francaise (on a bracelet) for 10 years every day. Then something happened and I got more into watches so now it’s in rotation. But yes, yes you can.

    I would say no TBH. It’s high polish all around and would scuff and nick very easily and quickly. Obvi “everyday beater” means different things to different people. For desk jockeys— sure. I work in food service and I’m cautious to wear anything but a diver.

    My wife’s worn her Solarbeat every day for 2 years. It looks and works just fine. I’d say yes.

      Looks “just fine”? What does that actually mean?

    Yes, but I’d start adjusting the strap properly.

    I wanted to get the seiko tank as my everyday but couldn’t find a vegan leather strap for it
