" The sky is the limit "...
Seriously, I think that we are a lot to have thought that only 3 wathces will cover our needs...
Then, going a bit deeper in watches, it is like a trap.
An example:
You fall on a Rolex GMT.
You think you're covered with travel watches...
Then, you fall on a PP World Time.
Bingo!
Now you think you are done.
Another mistake...
Then you travel a bit more in time, and you fall on a nice Vintage Rolex GMT, 1575 Gilt or 6542.
Bingo, once again...
Then, exploring the traveller watches, again, you cross the road of an Ulysse NARDIN Sonata...
Alarm watches...
Another dangerous topic.
A JLC Memovox?
Of course!
But what about a Polaris???
Aaah, Diving watches, now?
You see?
The sky is my limit!

I'll let you know if I ever achieve it.
Don't hold your breath. Seriously, it's hard to give regular wrist time to more than perhaps ten or twelve watches. However, if you have watches you like and it doesn't bother that they are worn rarely, there really isn't much of a limit. I keep about hal...
Tough question,
I think it has to be an individual choice. Some might want to spend all their money on one top end watch, while others may spend less to have multiple pieces. Finances, family situation, other responsibilities are going to be different for everyone. Set y...
Obviously there are much sicker people than me on this Forum :)
"Enough?" Can't even find that word in my dictionary. My new year resolution has been broken many times (the only thing I learnt is that I should buy more selectively, and stay away from brands/pieces that can't stick in my mind or have low resale value)....
When servicing kicks in
Hi There have already been lots of well thought out responses to how many watches are enough - but I thought I'd throw my comments in and probabl yopen another can of worms at the same time. You have enough watches - when getting them serviced starts to c...
