How you rotate to wear your watchs?

If you've more than 1 watch,how you rotating to wear them?

I've 7 watches in my collections and I'd changed them once a month.

For this month is hulk next month will be DJ41.

That's mean I wears them twice a year. (for a month)

Below is my rotating table :-

Dec = Hulk
Jan = DJ41
Feb = Danaos
Mar = PP 5167
Apr = YM 2 TT
May = DSSD
Jun = YM 1

How about you? Day, Week or Month? please share your experience~~

I have four in my humble collection (so far) and just put on whatever takes my fancy for the day... not very scientific but it works for me... (and sometimes my wife grabs whatever is left in the case - if she feels like wearing a watch that day)

cheers

Ditto. I have about 14 watches. I keep 12 on winders so all I have to do is strap one on and go.

What ever strikes my fancy as long as I'm not in too much of a hurry to bother changing (winding and setting, etc.) Too many watches makes it a challenge to decide what to wear on occasion.

I have 5. The ladies date just hasn't seen much use this year. I rotate out the watches depending on work or non work and as often as daily

Lately I've been rotating between my DSSD, TT black sub, and YG ddII. It's dependent on my mood and what I'm doing. Sometimes I'll throw the vintage Pepsi into the mix if I'm feeling nostalgic. The sub has been getting a lot of wrist time.

I can only agree. How do you guys with multiple watches manage to get out the house (one day I hope to be in the position to find out!)

I tend to wear whatever watch takes my fancy unless there's a compelling reason to go for a particular piece (watching a Brosnan or Craig Bond naturally demands the Seamaster). I also usually wear my Omega when overseas because it feels more robust and I think it's a more versatile piece.

I usually wear a watch for a day or two and then I like to change it up.

I keep my unworn watches in the bank vault so I only rotate periodically, maybe once a month.

That seems extreme I would rather have one watch than go through the hassle. I live in nice gated community have a quality alarm system and a very nice 1200lb fire proof safe in my home. If all that fails I have plenty of insurance!

I work for a bank so it's not too bad. And out of the house keeps them out of sight from my wife, although she has asked me occasionally if I am wearing a new watch. She doesn't quite share the same passion of expensive watches. I also have an alarm at home, safe and a back up 150lb Bull Mastiff in case the power goes out. Haha.

I keep my unworn expensive watches and a couple of not so expensive watches at the bank and I find it to be very convenient to drop by on my way to whatever I'm doing that day.

I have one of the friendliest and consumer-oriented banks I've ever dealt with and it takes me usually 5-7 minutes at the most to pick up a watch and be gone.

Of course, I avoid high-traffic times of the day to do the switch.

Moreover, the cost is ridiculously cheap, besides the peace of mind.

My mood and/or work schedule dictates my outfit for the day, and the outfit in turn dictates which watch I wear that day. The whole package just has to fit my mood that day, nothing scientific about it for me.

I normaly keep two in rotation for a month, alternating days so I keep them wound. That worked fine when I had four, now I've added a fifth it has complicated things somewhat. Early next year I'm going down to four again, and balance will be restored :-)

Your attribution is very neat, one watch per month. When I had more than a handful of Rolex watches I was picking what to wear randomly but the newer models had the priority on the wrist presence
My adaption is that I wear two watches in rotation per week
Sea Dweller 116600 is on the winder
YM II 116680 is on the wrist
Daytona Cerachrom 116500 LN tomorrow

Chaps

Changing a watch daily would drive me nuts and also you need a bit of time to bond with a particular watch.

I have four Rolex and I try to give each one a total of 13 weeks wear every year, usually in a period of 4 weeks -6 weeks at a time.

Regards

Mick

Currently own 3 Rolex and 1 Omega. No particular method for rotation I just wear what I want when I feel like it, I may change after a day or upto 2 weeks. I seem to favour the Rolex over the Omega so will have to,put that right in the new year.

It all depends on what I am wearing. I am not that complex to set up a detailed rotation.

No set pattern. Mood, schedule and activities have some influence.

My mood really. I get dressed and grab which ever watch I fancy wearing. I must admit for work it is usually the Hulk though.
