I own two vintage Omega Seamasters from the 1950s. The dials are slightly different and the numbers/hour markers are slightly different, but they're basically the same watch movement.

Two Navitimers only ? But there are so many movement, generations, dial colors. Is it an addiction ?

yes. this is why it is called watch addiction. :oops:
some more Navis are still in service, will try to post a complete family pic when all are back.
but, as Roff said, the 50s are underrepresented, no 18k, no Ratty, utterly incomplete.

have two of certain watches I really like ~ one for show and one to go. I have two of one particular watch each with a different dial color. I have in mind finding another current production Omega SMP with the extra line of type describing the movement, otherwise identical to the one I already have. I joined a watch forum so I would have support for my behavior.

No words for this. Nothing but 'great collection' :lingsrock:

Nope. Crazy is a relative thing. In watch collecting, it's not crazy at all and there's probably no such thing as crazy. However, watch collecting in itself is arguably completely nuts.

Always plenty of room in the Asylum. If you love it, get it. If someday you don't like it anymore, sell it and get something else.
