Horological Meandering

"The One Watch Duration Contest". Hereafter named "The Contest". So this contest will be very simple. 1 watch. 1 wrist. No changing of watches. Ever. If you switch watches you are out of the contest. There is only one exception : inside a watch shop you w...  

Two or three days before... Best, Nicolas

As this will require a lot of thought and careful planning.

No way I last more than 24 hours.

A monogamist in real life, but a completely promiscuous whore in watch life.

You do not stand alone in this! We are all very weak concerning watches....

Which episode was on TV here last night.

I never promise anything unless I can deliver.

....Kramer. Cosmo lasted all of five minutes. - scott

and am glad it was not next week during SIHH... many watches, many collectors and many many watches to share. Cheers Andrew

and that is not to crack under pressure! Cheers Andrew

at a minimum. I am throwing down the first gauntlet. What's a gauntlet?

But love the Seinfeld reference.

But would be very tough to win!!!

Does anyone else see this as a reason to buy a GADA (go anywhere, do anything) watch?

Do we not all have one of those? Or at least considered one that a long time ago?

My explorer. An honestly, that didn\'t do it for me. I like my watches to do what they do well! Like a 47mm base Panerai. It\'s SO Panerai! See what I\'m getting at? But now I don\'t have an all things to all situations watch! Perhaps my SRP777?

ban me from entering this contest ! LOL.

. . . in the bag. No one, and I mean no one, owns a watch they love as much as I love . . . . . . Black Connie. The only competition will be jml with his urushi Seiko. He's got the edge in mono-watch experience and a smaller harem to satisfy, but I still ...  

forgot about that Connie....victory will be hard fought

As the saying goes When all else fails - cheat! Yes wear the Urushi every day & it is now unthinking reaction in the morning to put it on. I do however have my spare wrist that is almost always sporting one of my other watches & might even change during t... 

...in September and had to pack up the watches to move, I've had a single watch on my wrist. Probably taken it off less than 5 times (to wash the gunk off the G10 strap) in that time...make of that what you will.

. . . than I thought. Five months with one watch? That's almost like being married.

stressing over which one I\'d even try to wear. I have dress watches, work watches, evening watches, weekend warrior watches, gardening watches. Aaarg. First world problems.

I\'ve had to resort to my \'gym watch\' for this challenge!

The most crazy idea! Why on earth would you like to limit yourself to only one watch?! If you want to torture yourself, I heard waterboarding is popular... Best Blomman PS. I am not out, because I was never in

“A life without challenge, a life without hardship, a life without purpose, seems pale and pointless. With challenge come perseverance and gumption. With hardship come resilience and resolve. With purpose come strength and understanding.”

To increase my chances of winning, I shall sport the Casio F91W. With this, the other watches won't feel jealous, and I probably won't remember wearing it. Hey, might even just wear it to sleep

Apparently we will (at least) have to wear the same watch for over 1 month in order to have a chance...

Gonna be rough, but let's do it!

is like ordinary non WIS people.

Perhaps it will give us (for a brief moment) an insight how a normal life is lived ;-)

... I know I will not be able to participate! Lol! I´m a complete weak man when it comes to my watches and I lost the complete mastering of my horological domain long ago! Lol! I will be just an spectator on this game! Lol. All the best my friend! Abel.

For the heck of it? Best to you too!

... I´ll be the first to throw the towel!! Lol! Cheers! Abel.

.....pale and pointless. With challenge come perseverance and gumption. With hardship come resilience and resolve. With purpose come strength and understanding.” Yes, perseverance...... interesting. Defines the issue as whether a Purist has perseverance o... 

relax! You don't have to ;-)

And it could have lasted a lifetime

Got your watch sorted out?!!

:-0

CvdK!

As much as I love Lange I just find the Moritz Grossman so interesting! The crown and pusher system is just great. I think it would be a good watch for this challenge!

Ai yiyi! Only 14 hours left for me.

It\'s impossible. Either one will do, you\'ll just have to grit your teeth and steel yourself for the coming days of adversity.

Trusting in my good old Sport Evo. But can I trust myself also? Let's find out. Best, Martin ...  

One for the winner, and one for who is the first to shout: I\'m out!

all my UN selected children.

Who knows; you might like it? An experiment of finding inner peace? ;-)

But The Contest simply starts when your day starts on February 1th. Decision has to be made while putting your clothes on ;-)
