Can I Actually Do It?
OK, I hypothetically have selected the nine watches left after I reduce my collection, but could I actually limit myself to only nine? If so, how long? My wife is convinced I can only limit myself to these nine for nine days. 🤣
So, starting today, I am going to see how long I can limit myself to the nine watches in these pictures. I chose my Nighty today. 😆

LúmëgaudAnar is the correct spelling, and means time machine of the sun in Quenya. I've been collecting for a few years and have a decent collection of mostly budget and entry-level watches with a few...

No you can’t. Not without your beautiful Bulova.
Sorry my friend, but since you started diving into the vintage route lately I say 3 days your back in the saddle 😜

Wow! Not even one full rotation? Even my wife gave me at least nine days! 🤣

😂 From the guy who started a challenge on how many watches you can wear in a day … c’mon 😁😉

Yeah, but I made sure to include my usual second/night/bed watch, the Armitron. That is the watch for me that is like Mr. Rogers' sweater, or my fuzzy slippers. That is my saving grace watch. 😉
Plus, I included my new Rangemaster. All good. 🤣
You got a Sportsman yesterday. No honeymoon?

Yeah, and I have a Waltham arriving in the next day or so. However, when my wife told me I wouldn't be able to go more than nine days...well...I had to pick that gauntlet up. 😂
I was just wondering aloud if I could really only wear these nine watches, and my wife snorted derisively and said, "Sure! For nine days! Then you'll crack!"

She knows you.
I can easily limit myself to 9 watches. Although I will have to buy one more in that case.
I try to stick to 8 watches and only exchange watches- one comes in, one have to go.
The issue with this system…I am bad at selling watches 🤷♂️🤣🤦♂️
Your Rangemaster looks really good on the leather strap!

Yes, I prefer the strap to a bracelet, and I think this rustic leather looks good with the matte black dial.
Yeah, I was trying to get as much coverage as I could while really trying to reduce and limit it. Made for some agonizing choices. 🤣
I’ve been trying to get a core group, it’s hard… I‘m down to 6, and +1 on the dresser is 7. Problem is there are 3 inbound, 3 at the menders, 1 on the watchlist, so some of these might have to go. And 50+ others…
🤬 this hobby.
You're almost at Day 9!!! 😂
