A Monaco for all seasons

After a long search and a lot of saving up, I recently bought a lovely Monaco 1533B. It wasn't my first choice of Monaco I have to say, (that would be an 1133B, no, a 73633G, hang on, an 1133G, dammit, I love them all), but it has grown on me day by day. So much so that I wear it every day now. I even sold my Autavia as it just wasn't getting any wrist time at all, poor little fella. I have however bought, (sorry, as this is a vintage site), a TAG F1 chrono for use in the gym and gardening etc but I still have to prise my Monaco off with a crow bar. My question is, as Monaco's are so desirable, is it really bad to wear one every day? I've toyed with buying a re-issue Monaco for use at work etc but, there's something about them that just doesn't look right to me. What does everyone think?

Regards, David Howlett
