I used to own over 20 watches, many of which were very inexpensive. Over time, however, I sold them all off and used the money to purchase watches of a higher quality. This seems to take care of me just fine and all are of exceptional quality for their price range.

I am in a similar situation right now . I ll probably do the same.

As the longtimers will attest, I don't reveal my collection, but I will say that 'too many' has to be a very personal decision. I have a number of pocket watches that I never wear, but that I can display and admire for their aesthetic and mechanical beauty. I also have some vintage wristwatches that aren't practical daily wearers, but I don't regret buying them for a second.

What all of my watches have in common is that they mean something to me - big or small. A time in my life, a person, an event, sometimes just remembering what I was doing when I first obtained the piece. That's a meaningful connection that I appreciate whenever I strap the watch on, even if it is only once in a while.


As always, very well said Roff :bow:

We do live in a funny world. :(

Hi,

The most i owned at one time was 11 Breitling and 5 Omega..But sadly due to economy and being self employed one had to go after another. Now i simply have the 5 Breitlings.
