How often do you rotate the watch you wear?

I was wondering how often you wear the same watch. I realize there is likely so variation but on average. I generally wear my watch for a couple days at a time. Occasionally change after a day if special event. Sometimes longer if traveling..

Does that mean you never wear your watch a second time?

I do but it’ll take a while for me to rotate back to. This is also why I collect for the family. I can always see 3 watches at a time

Depends on the season...

My lightest and most summer friendly is my 1675. It’s also a pain to set the date, so when I do it gets a nice stretch all to itself.

The rest get rotated a few times a week

Daily. If its a new acquisition I might wear it for a week. The longest I have worn a watch continously is 3 weeks while on vacation.

Playing chess has accustomed me to seeing 10 pieces in advance (lol). Back in reality, I toggle between Rolex and Patek each day, wearing Aquanaut during the day and Smurf at night and during workouts. 24 hours a day is well-covered by these two pieces.

I'll wear the Patek for travel as it does not look expensive.

I don't sleep with my watch on so I change everyday and rarely wear the same watch in the same week.

You know I returned it and I don’t miss it. My favorite is still the 5167A and I am on the list for it
