How many watches do you have in your collections?

 
 By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : October 14th, 2020-12:55
Hey fellow purist, not sure if this was already discussed in other threads but I am curious to know how many watches do we have in a typical collection. Dont know if there is a survey option available, so to make it a bit more anonymous please share which... 

I am firmly in A territory

 
 By: VinnieD : October 14th, 2020-13:05
I have 3 sentimental watches that are classics and keepers + another 2 which come and go, usually sold after 2 years and that are more usually more funky I become uncomfortable with more than 5 (not enough wrist time, fear of misplacing them etc.)

Just like my time in school...

A, I now own three watches. It use to be six, now I have a three watch rotation which suits me well. My Rolex watches are all keepers.

 By: Jocke - Bad Santa : October 14th, 2020-13:28

But i would guess you have a little bit of “silicon” in the collection :-) [nt]

 By: K-Lo : October 14th, 2020-14:27

Wow, great responses guys. I should have added a triple D category clearly! So far we have if I did not miss anyone...

 
 By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : October 14th, 2020-14:37
D=12 votes C=3 votes B=3 votes A=2 votes Giving equal weighting to the triple Ds as the normal D (lol) we have 60% in the D category. Very interesting!

A for me ....

But the direction is to move to C! BW, Chi Kai

Interesting as i flip flop myself between A and B then A and now definitively moving into strong B (not yet C) territory but...

 
 By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : October 14th, 2020-15:51
Sometime when I have more watches i tend to put some of them in questions, then regret buying them, flip a few them thinking i will make better choices or can live with only 1-3 watches, then live with a couple of watches for a while, start craving having...

C, although the "active" ones are barely B.

 
 By: mkvc : October 14th, 2020-15:21
I count 6 watches that get regular wear, plus another 8 that are a combination of (a) relatively formal watches I just don't get a chance to wear and (b) backup watches in cases in which I have found it appropriate to have a duplicate or approximate dupli...

 By: judson : October 14th, 2020-18:05
But a B if we are only counting “nice” watches, and by nice I mean Rolex/Omega.

That is indeed very drastic Nicolas! [nt]

 
 By: Chronometer (aka yacomino) : October 15th, 2020-03:48

Here is the updated count: 55% are D (26), 19% are C (9), 17% are B (8) and 8% are A (4)

 By: BigAppleBill : October 14th, 2020-18:43
But until very recently a D. My goal is 5 - 7 total. I don’t think I could get it to under 5.

Well into Double-D range.

 
 By: rdenney : October 14th, 2020-18:48
Wait, that didn’t come out as I expected... —Rick

I am barely a B

 
 By: MiguelFlash : October 14th, 2020-20:21
and I am grateful and happy with my small collection. However, I hope to add few more in the future!

I'm a solid D plus...
