Have you ever fallen out of love with a watch - or never really truely bonded? Or is there one watch that is always overlooked and another selected - limited wrist time?

This challenge is to reacquaint you with one or more of these watches from your collection.
If it doesn’t improve the relationship - then maybe it will aid in posting up the watch for us forum members in the bazar.

## The Challenge
1 # Select your least favourite watch from your collection. Or one that is always overlooked.
2 # Wear it for 10 days straight.
3 # Post a picture of the watch and description of the before and after reconciliation trial.
4 # Post the watch in the bazar if you can’t make up.
** This is not a full requirement of the challenge.

## The rules
1 # You must wear the watch for 98% of the day/week.
2 # Short periods of wearing another watch are allowed in the following circumstances only:
- Another watch needed for specific occasion (birth, death, marriage, high profile board meeting etc).
- Use of smart watch for exercise session.
- Watches with particular features required for employment.
- If you don’t wear a watch to bed then don’t - if you wear a sleep tracker then do.
3 # If your relationship chances are improved with a change of watch strap colour/material or is more suited to the occasion - you must wear the watch.
4 # If you receive a new watch in the mail, you may try it on and adjust as much as required - as long as you return to the challenge.
5 # You must post a picture of the watch you were cheating with.

## As to the prize - not sure, someone have something they are willing donate or offer up?

Kick off!

I present the Mansfield Time - Automatica One.

This will be gracing my wrist for the next ten days. We have had an on again off again type relationship.

Good challenge! I hope others take part.

I'll have to give this one some thought. Off the top of my head I can't think of any of my watches that fall into the criteria.

The only other exclusion I'd suggest if a new watch delivers. Would be so cruel to have to wait 10 days to try on a new watch that just arrived.

I like this idea! I'm going to have a look through the watch box this evening, see if I can do this.
