One watch owners, lets hear from you.

I could compare my watch collecting to my tattoo collecting. I started off young, getting some cheap ones, collecting a whole bunch.

One really nice one goes a lot further in my eyes than a bunch of cheap ones.

I've been spending money on real estate and a truck again and my wife and I want another baby soon, so I'll spend on that too.

Really, I love being a one watch guy right now because I'm young. Maybe for my 35th birthday ill do the Daytona.

Either way, if somebody loves one watch like I love this day date, they will be happy. I don't have desire to get another one yet. I can't explain it but a Rolex that you love stems the addiction for more. I feel like I have good control over my appetite. I don't let desire rule my life, rather I rule my life by wisdom.

Your wise beyond your years

The problem around here with most of the collections is that their not so cheap

I was a practical, sensible one watch (Tag) guy until the Pepsi...and TRF!!
A LV, SD, GV, YM, TOG, EXPll, omega, tudor, ball, zenith, sinn, tutima, and marathon later. I am seriously considering consolidating... someday.

3 thats the magic number - 1 Gold, 1 TT, 1 SS. Or 1 Rolex, AP and PP.

Just the Sub-C for me, I'm another that saw the Sub in James Bond and knew it was what I wanted. It took me twenty odd years to get there but it's worth it. I like looking at he different models on here but have no appetite to get another. I have my grail and its perfect.

GMTc, DD II and JLC Reverso 976 18k would keep me satisfied for some time. And cover all possible occasions I can think of.

Just have to get the DD and upgrade my present JLC Reverso 976 SS. :)

I was a one watch Rolex guy for 16 years with my 1680 sub until I received my DD from my father in 95. But since I could never be a one watch guy any longer as I miss switching my references for wrist time. I was wearing my Pepsi GMT II this past weekend out of town and was yearning for another piece to wear. It would be way to tough. But I could see myself with a smaller collection and being happy as well.

Same here.

I have 2 DD and 14060. But only wear the DD because it was my dads and he wore all the time and I feel I should do the same. Plus I don't want to wear the sub.

One Explorer II, that I've had for 25 years.

[subtona]

I was a one watch owner for 20 years, never took it off, it was a Bluesy 16613.
Bought it in 1991. Wore it everyday and enjoyed it thoroughly!
I got the notion & opportunity to pick up a daytona in 2011 for a great price, I had wanted it since 1990 ...... So it began, I got the daytona, I flipped the daytona, I bought another and another, & am now at the point were I am striving to be a 3 watch owner:-). Just get seem to get below 4 at the moment.

If I were a 1 watch guy now, it would definitely be the 42mm Explorer II

I have one dream watch...an LV...and am super happy about it...

[Gottahaverolex]

Flipped many and owned several at one time but I'm very content with my DSSD as my one and only watch.
