what wrist watch do you trcuker guys usually wear?

That is funny, I think I have the same one.
I do not think I paid that much for it though.
On the face it shows all the info I need at a glance also
Day and Date at the top.
Then time.
I do not need all the other BS at a glance cluttering up the screen.
Just the basics.
And the velcro strap is great. Easy to adjust and stays on. No pins to wear out every few months.

On the shower question.
Sometimes I take it off, and sometimes I forget too.
It does fine, but takes a good 30 min or more to dry out if I keep it on.

 

Why?

I always take my watch off for a shower. If it gets wet in the rain, it isn't enough to worry.

But as far as velcro and water.

My EMS coat has velcro to close it in fair weather without using snaps or zipper. They have been on their since 1997 and still work fine. I assure you they have been soaked in the rain, snow, sleet and fire hose.

 

I would recommend that you seek one where the crystal is seated lower than the rest of the watch face. This will help protect it from scratching.

 

Real truckers don't take showers!

 

shhhh dont tell the noobs that they will all quit

 

i wear a stainless steel Festina.

 

What's a wrist watch?
