Two of the same watch? Am I crazy?

Two of the same watch? Am I crazy?

Anyone own two of the same watch. I love my B-1 so much I am contemplating adding another one in another dial color. I could switch it up a little bit and add an Airwolf. What are your thoughts?

If it's a watch that makes you happy, even if only a slight variation, go for it!!!
There are many here who stick to a personal preference, it's part of collecting!!

Here is my 'similar' estate.


Enjoy what you want, you only live once!

Different dial color = a different watch.

Your not crazy...at least not for wanting the additional watch

I have a few of the same which are just a bit different. Seriously, have you seen all the Rolex Subs Mike Woods has? Get whatever makes you happy.

Well...as mentioned previously...a different dial is a different dial so why not?

You may buy that watch but only if you post some pictures of the twins afterwards! Do we have a deal?

I used to own two Omega Speedmasters from Schumacher edition.
Same watches + different colors = different watches!
