How happy are you with the watches you have ?

On a scale of 1 to 10.

1 being miserable

And 10 being happy as a pig in shit.

For me I'm about a 6 .

Content but always looking for the next watch

Anyway have a great one fellow crunchers ๐Ÿ‘

8.

The only hole in the collection is a nice full dial moonphase.

ยท

I give myself a 9 ๐Ÿ˜€There are ofc more varied/luxurious/costly collections out there, but I am really very happy with my mish-mash collection which ranges from beaters and divers to chronos and gold dress watches and from Swatch and Pagani to VC and Glashutte Original and from the 1930s to 2024. There is always room for improvement and perhaps for one more ๐Ÿ˜‚, but as it stands: yeah, happy camper!

10 until I change my mind. I don't have my eye on anything at the moment, and I don't plan on trying to hunt for anything anytime soon. Pretty sure I won't buy any more this year, so we'll have to see where I'm at next year.

ยท

8.5 for me, just to be awkward ๐Ÿ˜‚

Tend to pretty much wear the same watch all the time lately, and there's a few need flogging off to upgrade - want less but of a higher quality.

ยท

9. Once I sell my quartz Omega Bond SMP and get a new green SMP automatic then it will be 10. However, I am aware that I am very fortunate to have the watches I do.

ยท

10. Content

ยท

Solid 8.5 or the NAVSCOLEOD max of 85%.

Waiting for the Sangin EOD Project, the Momentum UDT reissue, and a few others. Then I might edge closer to a 9.

No 10's, cuz nothing is perfect ๐Ÿ˜‚.

ยท

8. Very happy. Altough there are a few pieces I'd like to add, I'm set for everything I really need.

ยท

Overall collection: 6

Microbrand collection: 8 but thereโ€™s always another fun one to add

Mainstream collection: 5 I have stuff I like but still want a few more

โ€œLuxuryโ€ collection: 1 this is the long term due to price but I want a few pieces from brands like Omega, Grand Seiko, Tudor eventually

ยท

3. I only have 1 watch as I just started my journey but I love it

ยท

10.

I think โ€œContent but always looking for the next watchโ€ is spot on. Resumes very well watch collecting.

ยท

8 โ€ฆ..almost there

ยท

I'd say 7.

Ideally, I would sell the Tudor BlackBay 58, a fantastic watch but not that comfortable on my wrist, and a very micro brand model I really never wear (but the watchmaker is a nice guy) and maybe buy a Sinn U50 HYDRO TEGIMENT, an incredible dive watch.

then I could reach 9

ยท

About a 7. I have a sneaking suspicion that even as things change, that contentment level is going to stay right around that number...

ยท

9.9 I'm 1 watch away then I'll be at a 10 and that will conclude my watch buying journey.... ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘โšก๏ธ

ยท

9 for me. I've got my eye on another Omega, but plan on keeping all 5 of my current watches for the long term future.

ยท

I would say 9 I've had my eye on a Hanhart. I'm extremely happy with what I have and realized this at a Detroit RedBar event in February. I didn't see anything other than the Hanhart (which I identified as a potential 2024 buy) that I felt would improve my current collection.

ยท

I'd say about a 9. I'm looking to add more watches, but I love the ones I have and don't anticipate replacing them ever. But who knows, only time will tell (see what I did there ๐Ÿ™‚ ).

ยท

10, very content

ยท

8, happy but always looking for the next watch ๐Ÿ˜…

ยท

Replacing the leather strap on one watch with a great bracelet recently took the collection from 8.5 to 9. Will likely stay around 9 until I get the grail.

ยท

Wow! A lot of satisfied watch peoples her on WC. I'm a pretty solid 5. A 6 on weeks when I get a new watch. But there's always something I'm chasing or coveting. I guess I'm a poor watch collector

Sound a lot like me. We aren't poor watch collectors, we are continually evolving

ยท

8 I think.

Very happy but always room for improvement. Plus my taste keeps changing

ยท

I guess...8. I'm content with my 4 watch collection, though I only wear one.

Grand Seiko has been my "Rolex" piece for as long as I can remember and I would quit collecting upon that acquisition, or be content with my collection at a 10.

ยท

I would say 9. I can't find a watch that I need. I have been looking for a watch for my 50th birthday but I can't find anything.

ยท

7 Not the Best but also Not the Worst just right for my occasional, casual, formal, needs, recently been in love with my Seiko 5 though wearing it almost all day everyday 24/7

ยท

I'm at 9 now, but I just got the Squale this week!

After a few weeks, or months, the itch will bite again and my happiness will drop as I get the urge to find the next watch for my collection!
