Do you buy and keep all of your watches? Do you have a one and done collection or maybe you’re like me and feel like three is the magic number. Would be fun to start a thread and see the reasoning behind everyone’s watch purchases 😁
Personally I feel like three is the perfect (and somewhat reasonable) watch collection size for me since it covers all aspects of my life:
Nomos Orion 35mm - This is my mon-fri office watch
Omega SMPc 300m - My weekend / going out watch.
Casio A168 - My work from home and traveling watch.
I like your taste, quite similar to mine when I started. My philosophy has been unique complications, different colors, and different designs. Not too many different colors- I stick to my favorite colors- red, black, green, white, and silver. After that, it's about finding the most distinctive designs possible. Minimalist vs pilot's watch. Analog vs digital. Square case vs circular case. Field vs dress. Classic vs modern. You get the point.
Imagine seeing a person every day, but he has a different outfit on each day- and a different watch as well. He is able to point in all these distinctive directions, but still able to consistently look good. Is it quite impressive.
