Left clavicle. 100% clean break here. 2 weeks off work, then back to walking around construction sites (very gingerly) before it was effectively back to normal and ridable after 8 weeks total.
Just strapped up and left to heal. In hindsight i should have pushed for a plat as its now shorter one side than the other, not much but noticable. Took ages to be confident with it.
I can now tell you a week in advance if there is going to be heavy rain from the ache.
Turbod after a month but didnt put that much weight on. As for swimming, rotation of the shoulder where the bone broke is limited a little and only equal to the other after massage.
Good luck, and if you can go for the plate.
