So how many do you own?
Re: So how many do you own?
7 now and one on the way.
They all get wrist time except the vintage Junghans (about 40 years old) as it's a bit small, but it was my dad's first watch so I would never sell it though.
Only 2 automatics in the group so planning on expanding with autos only.

Re: So how many do you own?
I think I have about 30... 24 CW's as per recent collection post with a reasonable split between quartz and auto. Most of my newer stuff has been auto, the recent exception would be my C7MkII.
Bit of a spree since late 2009 when I had 2 watches, one I wore and one I didn't (grandfathers retirememt watch).
Some consolidation planned and I have my eye on a couple of things.

Re: So how many do you own?
Up to 52 at the moment, with an Oris Frank Sinatra Complication and a Longines 180th Anniversary Monopusher on thier way.
I have to admit the rate of accumulation has slowed down a lot recently but the list of wants seems to continue to grow. Here's a little flavour:
Nomos Orion
C9 Sapphire
C11 Auto
Vintage Rolex (haven't decided which just yet, maybe a Sub or Day-Date)
Chronoris
Cartier Ballon Bleu
I could go on...

Re: So how many do you own?
just my little old c5 malvern aviator mk I. surely the whole point of owning a nice watch is you only need one but then why do i crave another!?

Re: So how many do you own?
7 various watches. Some good, some not so good. Plan to increase numbers greatly in years to come

Re: So how many do you own?
There are many in my possession as I like tinkering with them, but if I had to say how many were mine and which I wear... I think 10 or 11.

Re: So how many do you own?
currently at 24 with 1 incoming. Recently been thinking about a serious cull. Have already got rid of about 20 but more and more think I only want about 4! choosing isnt going to be easy and feel a tie to some as they were presents. Just seems a shame having watches that never get worn.
Cheers now, Paul
