Colorful Vacation
How’s this for a beach 🏖️ vacation?
I know there has been some concerns bringing too many watches for traveling and vacations.
At the peak, I had took 10 watches to Europe and that’s before social media brought them unnecessary attentions.
Then you hear stories of border/customs agents taking them, imposing tariffs, ask for fines without declaring yada…
Now I limit myself to max 3 or 4 depending on location.
How many watches do you travel with nowadays?
Enjoy and HAGWE!

I only bring one watch when traveling
I don't like leaving them in hotel rooms or in my bags
It’s quite depressing to know we cannot enjoy them freely as we like nowadays….
In that case, really no point collecting if only wearing at home, or local…but I fully get your point. Safety and no worries during vacation is more important. I just like wearing my watches. Thank you,
I actually think of vacations as a good way to bond with the watch I decide to bring
It creates nice memories, plus it fits into my rotation since I always wear watches one week at a time
One.
If it’s on my wrist less headaches…unless you’re taking a 2 month tour one is all that’s really necessary.
2.....One decent one (not a Rolex) and one G-SHock
Rolex is overexposed in the theft market. That's a nice colorful road collection you have there.
Usually two for me
One casual/sporty and one for fine dining. I dislike wearing sports models in formal locations and valuable complications don’t work with sand and water normally 😅
I can totally relate to having the right watches for the right occasion!
Maybe I should replace with a dressier watch for dinner….Thanks for the comment.
The picture
The three watches matched well. Normally i would say, the Omega for me. Three is better. Holiday watches, i am busy now make a decision. The place is not as harsh, but i think that everywhere thief’s can ruin peoples holiday pleasure. Longines Conquest qu...
I totally agree the Omega is my choice too, if it comes down to one.
2 nice options you picked…it is good to have worry free vacation. Thanks Weems@8.
I can imagine
That it is a good idea to let a Rolex in a vault. This said, because i am consider a Date Just i seen. 126300.
First of all, what a three beauties!
I think the best option is 2 watches. A cheap (or not expensive) and resistant one for the pool/beach and the best stuff for formal dinner… That Rolex… ufff, risky.
Thank you so much!
2 is a good answer too, no need to leave it in the room. Interestingly this OP41 is the basic Rolex but the hype is crazy.
I have 2 to 4 for vacation and 1 for biz travels.
There is no right or wrong answer, one can get into a nasty situation even when in our home country. In recent times, I do avoid wearing recognizable pieces when traveling simply just to avoid potential troubles. In the end, this is personal choice and on...
I agree this is our own judgement and decision, really depends on destination and surroundings…
Sometimes it also depends on luck too. Thank you kindly for your well wishes. I will continue to enjoy my watches with no regrets and be very aware of my surroundings.
Very colorful line-up 🌈
Very nice picture of nice sporty watches for vacation days 🏝️ I’m usually travelling with fewer watches nowadays, often 1 max 2 watches - for exactly the reasons you mentioned. Went recently for a short week in Algarve and rediscovered the versatility of ...
That versatility of the Overseas is great 👍🏻
I love they make it so easy to swap the bracelets and straps, make it a different watch each time. Wish more other brands can have the same designs. Cheers 🍻!
Night & Day
Two: A sport watch on a metal bracelet for the day (e.g., dive watch) and a dress watch for the evening on a leather strap.
Good little survey!
When travelling, I tend to leave nothing of value in a hotel room, I never take my watch off (absolutely never leave it in a hotel 'safe"). Hence, the watch I bring has to be waterproof, 50m at least, steel or rubber bracelet goes without saying, Nato onl...
Wise words and good suggestions wover…
It is not the same anymore with watches getting so much attention. I have heard such stories of hotel safe not being safe too. Nice choices you got for traveling in terms of form and functionality. I’m also a practical and logical person so I will keep yo...
Things usually jump from one extreme to another…
I think it will settle in the normal middle some days.
