Oh, I'm not criticizing in any way! Would that I were in possession of such a stable. Naturally we were all pretty much oblivious. I hope they all come back to you sooner than

This would sound INSANE to anyone outside this forum

6 of my watches are in for service at the same time and I’m down to 3 watches ! Driving me insane! I’m beginning to hate them all. Too much wrist time. Ok I still like this one. ...  

Sounds like you got a wholesale price on service.

I am sure it was not planned but with the current situation if you have service with any of the majors it may be a whole do savor the three you have. Hagwe.

Doesn't even seem possible

Honestly never heard of someone sending 66% of their collection in for service at the same time... did you run over your 6 watch box or something?

One watch I have in service is in big trouble. The company just started bankruptcy and now they're not answering the phone!

At least that isn't the case for you! This is a big problem, I have too many watches. I have to have a spreadsheet just to keep track of everything!

I do have a spreadsheet not because I have too many

I think the good number of watches is the number you have plus one I do have a sheet to keep track with the price paid, the serial numbers, who sold it to me etc...

I'm trying to "diversify" my portfolio...

Too many for me to keep track of. I recently flew to Switzerland just to pick up a watch from service! The thing that really gets me now are those Roland Iten belt buckles and other mechanical lifestyle items. So now, no more watches, but other "watch rel... 

if you don't mind, which watch required such a journey?

Thanks to you, I now know what is a " Roland Iten belt buckles". For other mechanical stuff, I think I will buy one atmos. I will like them.

Judging by the response of my brothers, it sounds insane even to those of us INSIDE the Forum! But, hey...

That van der Klaauw—what a beauty! And speaking of insane… I forget—OK, give me a minute and I'll look it up—all right here it is: one DAY in 11,000 YEARS??? Approximately how many winders would one's heirs go through keeping that going? (Not to mention s... 

Well wasn’t exactly expecting a pandemic when I put them in.
