No I don't mean wearing two watches next to each other, but rather having a special strap made that can accomidate two watches. Much like a B1 and UTC.

ABP paris have one on their website and it got me thinking, might be fun though it might be taking it a bit too far!

I was thinking of doing a two PAM strap, maybe a PAM 233 and 88. Four time zones!

What do you think/ Am I absolutely nuts?

From Wiki

Cuban President Fidel Castro wears two, a stainless steel Rolex GMT Master and an 18ct gold Rolex Day-Date, on the same wrist.

2 watches on 1 wrist seems even more excessive than buying a 4-5k watch to tell time :mrgreen:

Maradona wore a Rolex on eich wrist as well.

Still thinking thsi through, not sure it is a very practicial option, but the oddness is apealing.

I would probably go with 10MM strap spacing between teh two watches.
