Seamaster: Tool or art watch?

I love my Seamaster and think of it as a work of art. Although I have an older Movado and Swiss Army watch, I have developed the habit of wearing my Omega with everything: lazy Sunday afternoon jeans, shorts, T-shirts, knit shirts, khakis, as well as business suits. I have never worn it with a dinner jacket, but if Bond can, then why not me?

But I wonder if most owners out there really think of it as a tool watch, something to wear exclusively with casual clothes (and perhaps to dive, although I don't know too many divers who actually dive with it and instead strap on a Casio G-Shock). I'd be interested in knowing the wearing habits out of my fellow Omega owners out there.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
