Can't take these two off...

I've got around 12 watches (all sub £1000, apart from a Grand Seiko I inherited) BUT I just can't seem to move away from these two (Not normally at the same time 🤣). Does anyone wear their full collection OR just one or two like me?

I wear my collection of mechanical and automatics but not my quartz. I am thinking of selling most of the quartz ones.

Those are good ones, there’s no need to move away from them.

Not that you asked, but I have a bit of advice. Think really hard about how you feel about those watches before you sell them. Lots of people sell because they don’t wear a watch much only to find they miss it.

I don’t wear my Speedy much, but I know I’d be stupid to sell it. I’d want it back and lose money buying another. Same with a few other watches. There’s some enjoyment (at least for me) in owning something. I have many, many books I won’t read again, but I like having them around anyway.

Maybe you aren’t like that, or maybe you don’t like these watches much, just something to think about.

I have a few I for sure will not sell, the ones I am contemplating letting go of I have no idea where they came from.

I try to give every watch some love but some get more wrist time than others

Is that a Seagull 1963. Love that watch and the history behind it. One of these days I will get me one
