So temped. I have a older seamaster without coaxial but close enough that I need to sell my older one.

Butt stuff. Thought this was about something different. LOL.

All the above minus the Rolex. Not their own movement, high price. Yeah marketing.

commented on Would you use a watch winder? ·

Storage watches, the bulk of my collection, stay in a box. The 3 watches I run in my monthly rotation, 2 stay on the winder and 1 on my wrist. That way I can easily run a three watch rotation and change them out as frequently and as infrequently as I want.

commented on a post ·

Depends. I have 3 watch rotation. I keep 2 on the winder. Some will say only for complications but several of my watches have screw down crowns. I like to minimize the cycles on the crown.

commented on Is Watch Collecting Just an Outgrowth of my General Discontent? ·

Over thinking it. Enjoy wearing what you have and savor the long hunt for your next watch. Save for it and sacrifice. That will make it sweeter.
