Just looking at numbers and a flurry of activity since early August.


Bad News: Added 4 watches


Good News: Moved out 6 watches.



I have a lot more watches than "ideal", but have no interest in selling any; prefer keeping them to getting some money.



The only way I see the current total (15) going down is with a 2 for 1 trade.

I’ve passed on quite a few watches to other people and now have just four.

I’m now down to four, thankfully. I gave two to my nephew and my niece, one to my brother, one to an old buddy, one to my mom, and another to a good neighbor.

I just went through a major purge and am down to two. My PO 42 blue titanium and an incoming Speedmaster '57. Hoping less is more.

5 seems to be the sweet spot for me. Anymore and I forget to wear them.
Ps whoever added a nickname to my username, it's fucking hilarious!

I’m down to four. Gave away the rest. Thinking about putting a bracelet on each one.

Pretty sure I could take that AP and GMT and call it a day. Great, great watches.

Right now I'm at 4:

- Rolex Explorer II 16570 (black dial)

- Tudor Black Bay 41 (black dial) - I like it, but it violates my "no more watches without a date function" rule

- Seiko SKX009 (that I never wear)

- Timex Ironman.

Thinking about selling the Seiko and the Tudor and picking up a Datejust, but first I need to see what happens with the IRS this year.

My collection consists of
16600 SD
116520 Daytona
16610 LV
16710 Pepsi
Gemini LE Speedy
2500D PO
Blue Tuna
IWC Mark XV

I have the itch for another Rolex, but I'm not sure when I'll get it. However, it will either be a five digit YG Day-Date, 114270, four line 14060M, or a white dial 16570 with a 3186 movement. I'd like a 16520, but anything I can afford it too crappy and anything I'd own is too expensive.
