My watches are for fun and generally I hate structure and rules

Jun 08, 2020,19:12 PM
 

A few observations: While working from home, I find I switch my watches two or three times a day, and I do the same on the weekend. Dog walking, working at the desk, date time with my wife all suggest different kinds of watches. If I were to ever feel I got the watch choice “wrong“ I don’t worry, because I know I have many days ahead to get it “right“. Finally, it depends on the colors of the Hawaiian shirt I’m wearing that day as to what color gold and strap and make of watch I choose to go with it!

After my latest purchase (GS Snowflake) which I have worn everyday since has brought the question in my mind as to how I am going to rotate the 5 watches in my collection...My collection consists of 4 very versatile everyday/situation type of watches (Ome...

Sometimes the same watch for just a day, sometimes for several days. Sometimes changing between 3 watches over a week, sometimes every day a different one. There are some watches though, that I ususally just wear during summer or winter or at formal occas...

shoot sometimes I would even switch watches when I came home from work..lol.. but i think my other watches are jealous right now of the Snowflake and subconsciously I am trying to figure out how to please each one!! Thankfully I only have one girlfriend..... 

+1 I tend to wear whatever I feel like at the time, though I tend to switch things up a lot and wear a different watch every day,

depending upon my mood and wardrobe. Then again, I don't have a particularly large watch wardrobe, and I wear everything that I have often enough that I don't keep anything off-site in a safe. (Or in the on-site safe, for that matter.)

Do not panic

It’s ok to have 5 watches. I own 4. Sometimes i swap a watch on a day. It depends whats i do, and for security reasons. Today i go to clean cars, so i put off my seamaster, and.... yes no watch. Car lacquer is sensitive for scratches, so a watch could dam... 

Thanks weems! Glad to know I am not the only one to wear 2 watches through out the day!

But in know the empty feeling of not having a watch on... that is why most of the time I have one on! Some days it is hard to choose which one though!lol -D-

i ensure i don't keep any safe queen...i wear them all but don't follow any rules of rotation. i pick what ever i feel each day & go - some times i wear the same for a week but i don't remember it carried over the weekend. Best, mahesh.,

Thank you mahesh!
