5: 16600, DOXA 750, old sterile field watch, DW5600, and a half-busted Garmin
Make that 4, since I flooded the Garmin yesterday. POS.

I’ve never swam with my Gshock but thankfully it’s gone through many a washing/clean-up without a hitch.

Just sold a few so I am down to 2. Pelagos LHD and a g shock.

This will probably be short lived though. I want to pick up a third but I'm really not sure what I want yet. Something simple and without a bezel. A field watch or pilot watch that I could also dress up if needed.

Sitting at 25 with 2 incoming. Once those 2 show up, it will be time to start the purge.

Glad to see the number of people with more than 25 watches creeping up;

makes me feel better about how many I have - 16.

Don't feel bad. I'm over 30 with Seiko alone. :oops:

Here is what I could find tonight. One is with Duarte, and there is at least one more quartz dress model somewhere.

This makes me feel better. ALL 12 of my watches are Seikos. Many of the same ones you have.

Surprised I don't see a Tuna in that pile though.

I'll admit that I haven't ever tried one. I'm pretty much certain it would be too much for my svelte wrists. Maybe I'll have a chance to check one out some day.

Here is a few of my military stuff there about 4-5 issued watches that have been added after the photo was taken then the civilian ones not in the photo and a few pocket watches I need to go to watch anonymous and get cured.

I have 7, including my vintage dress seamaster that belonged to my Grandfather. I think any number 10 or less is manageable for me so I feel satisfied keeping it around this ballpark. None coming in, none going out. Hoping that I pretty much got it all down to my keepers.

Too many and not enough, at the same time

I kept the poll simple without an option to go back and change a vote.


However, I sold the Squale and moved down one group on the survey; feels good.


In the 11-15 range.

4 currently but the Speedy is spoken for and another Omega is pending.
After the dust settles I’ll probably consolidate down

Three right now.

Rolex Explorer II 40mm - my go to.

Timex digital for workout stuff.

Tudor Heritage Ranger. My second go ‘round with this one and still just not feeling it. Thinking about selling it and getting another Speedy Pro, or maybe a Tudor Chrono of some kind.
