So, I had my Chrono Avenger M1 for 7 years, and never felt the need to purchase another watch. Then I got a great deal on a used Wolf, and then an Evolution caught my eye. Move forward 12 months and its becoming clear that I have an addiction.  Should I sell them all and purchase one high end watch, or is that the start of something even worse...... |

Everybody's different. If you want to reach for a higher brand, that's fine, I chose to do it, but I wouldn't suggest selling them all to get it. Once you have had variety, I think its difficult to go back to one watch. I'm having trouble with two lead watches ( a few quartzes I wear as well) My present idea of a "sweet spot " is four-- a white dial, a black dial with strap, black on bracelet and blue on bracelet or strap. I'm hunting the black bracelet now, but on a super tight and shrunken budget. |

Ahh yes... The "multiple for one" dilemma... I've done a 2 for 1 before but not a "all-in". It is a very tempting thought though. |

I feel like I could get plenty of rotation with the 4 watch stable, but everyone is different. Looking at your collection, and contemplating what I would do if it were mine, I would probably keep one digital option from Professional line-up and one chronomat style case. Maybe adding a third Omega or, if you wanted to really move up the ladder you could also unload one of the omega's still leaving you with a 5 watch collection with some very nice options. |

Keep them all and buy a high end watch also, you only live once. |

My watchest have also started multiplying like rabbits over the last 12 months. There is no way however that I would swap them for the one "decent" one. I would not know which one to flip first. |

Thanks for the feedback guys. Lots of food for thought, and I like the idea of a 4 watch collection as I have a triple winder. I want to add a Navitimer 01 to the collection, so may move on the Evo and the Navitimer to fund that (or at least the Navi, after all who needs two  )Ive only recently added the Omega's and have to say they are really growing on me, so I may look to add another (possibly the new PO with the 9300 movement) Im thinking about adding a Bremont MBII to the collection as I really like the aviation connection (I'm ex Air Force) and its a British company. I expect it will take me 12 months to cycle them as Im mainly in Africa for the next 6 months. Thats the plan, but these things have a habit of changing.... |

Clearly, you do not have enough watches. Feed your habit, buy more. Obsessions are good.  Jim |
