How many watches does one really need?

[ssureal]

Practically speaking
1 for everyday watch like a Sinn U1
1 for the weekend
1 for formal occasion

this is one question i am still having difficulty in figuring out the answer

[isiowsg]

As long as you are happy and can afford, how many is no longer the question but did you own the must have "ONE"

[AK28]

Of course, there will be extremists.... just speak your mind on the topic will do. By the way, the reward system will definitely get more people to talk more IMO. Totally cool.

[Jurester]

there is never enough to be honest!

[DanielKhong]

Don't need too many la... Just 8 to 10 should be about enough

[tamedriver]

For me, about 10. That's becos I backside itchy and went to buy a watch case that holds 10 watches. Then i realized I have this great need to fill up every slot haha.

Oh No! Just bought 2 x watch case that holds 10 watches!! Hahaha..
Wolf design got a 50% off for certain model watch case lah.. so took advantage of the discount..

[Shanghaied]

10 should be about the right number, with a good mix of sports and dress watch (perhaps 3 to 4 each?) and a couple of innocuous-looking watches for traveling in unfamiliar territories or extreme (!) sport - desk diving or related activities are not such sport. That said, even 10 is too much. [So many watches, so little time...]

[Derick]

All Start from one (01).

Next : Eight (08) to Ten (10)

Follow by : Eight (08) + Ten (10)

Than : Eight (08) X Ten (10)

For me, I own 5 watchs. but all different brands.

[deslene]

Used to own 3 rolex, 1 sinn & 1 pam... I used to think that 1 wanted 5 rolex and that's all.(Namely TT GMT, Sub LVC, 42mm Ex II White, DSSD & Smurf so as to have all colors n materials) but that slowly changes as my watch "collections" increases. I started selling off 2 of my 3 rolex after getting a AP diver, sold off my sinn u2 n now trying to sell my pam 351. Now, I think that 3, maybe 4 watches are enough for me. 1 daily beater which I hv yet to decide/buy, 1 for shopping/meals which is a Rolex, and 1 high end (at least for me, in the range above $20k) which is AP for special occasions....

Actually as long as we love watches, we will always come up with reasons to buy a new watch.

It's a passion.

And at times we buy for no reason

[ntrdrag]

for me its three to four also.

1 classy watch, can be used for meetings and in the office.

1 sporty watch / which suits casual outfit and can go for a swim.

1 dress watch / bling / for party and special occasion

1 quartz for your daily beater. but your classy watch can also take this place.

Sure have reason la... But to others, it's usually not a valid reason. Haha.

I remember I bought an FM King Conquistador before, simply because I don't have a square watch..
