I bike as my primary form of commute / transportation, and whenever I hit a pothole or go over some particularly rough patches of road I worry that overtime this could damage the watch. Anyone have any insight into this? I did a bit of research and it seems like many watches these days have some sort of shock-resistance in the form of Incabloc or other technologies. But then I see posts like this which are worrying…
Any mechanical watch has the potential to be damaged by excess vibration. Up to you if you think the risks are worth it. I wear an automatic watch all the time but it’s also not terribly expensive; so if it dies, I can just replace it.
