I read an interesting story a while ago about a collector who after many years of collecting watches decided to sell everything except one. He had many brands in his collection from Patek Philippe to IWC and from Rolex to Seiko. Complicated and Sports watches, dress watches and simple watches. Expensive and cheap. His collection covered all bases. But it turned out there was too little time to wear them all and after all those years he made up his mind and decided to keep just one: a Grand Seiko GMT if I remember correctly. I have been buying watches for almost 35 years now. It all started with a Swatch and after that I have had IWC, JLC, Patek Philippe, Audemars Piquet, Tag Heuer, Omega, Vacheron Constantin, Cartier, Panerai, Sinn, Eberhard&Co, JeanRichard, Breitling, Zenith, Seiko, Oris and Rolex many Rolex watches. I have recently done a few acquisitions and also sold quite a few watches which I hardly wear. And from time to time I like to ask myself which one I would keep if there was only room for one. I have narrowed my choice down to three watches and from these three it would be the Yachtmaster I would keep. It has everything, sporty rubber strap, some gold, waterproof, automatic, nice power reserve and also important a low profile. But the one I wear the most is not the Yachtmaster but…
Guess which one is my daily wearer.
