I'm up to around 40 at this point. I just love watches whether it's $20 or $20,000. I don't have anything over $1000 but eventually right. I've learned all the basic maintenance from crystal replacement, batteries, bands, etc. Its an addicting hobby. I scour marketplace and online for rare finds and good deals. I'm looking for recommendations for a quality high capacity box. This $20 box is garbage.
Like 20, I think? I have a number of cheap Casios in various colors that I rarely wear. That's how I started the hobby in the first place. I also have a few that I keep for sentimental reasons, but don't wear that often. Those are all sitting in a drawer which is why I don't know the exact number.
My main rotation basically comes down to five or so. My Oris Big Crown, an Alpinist, a Seiko SRPG37 on any number of straps, and a couple of GShock square models get the vast majority of wear. I do plan to add more, but after buying my Oris I'm definitely switching to quality over quantity going forward and I already know what I want to work toward for the foreseeable future.
