Question: how many times do you switch watches while working from home

I can't be the only one that does this, right? Probably switch 2-3 times a day ๐Ÿ˜‚

Ha! ย Here's the extent of my OCD - I try to keep one watch on my wrist for an entire day without switching at all. ย Like, the struggle is real. ย And, in my mind, I'm thinking this way all my watches get equal love. ย 

My wife said, "Oh... ย so... ย you're afraid you're going to hurt their feelings if they don't get equal time?"

"Yes, baby. ย Yes. ย That's exactly right."

Oh dear, Iโ€™m not alone.

Record is 3. Tag Golf after strap clean > Vacheron on new strap to see if it worked > Benrus Sea Lord on new silicone strap.ย 
I 2-watched yesterday after finally deciding the leather strap on my Undone was uncomfortable and ended up with a Hamilton Khaki Sub.

Sometimes you need to change watch before you go out.

ยท

Definitely and why not.

ยท

I change the watch on my wrist while working at home more than a Superstar Diva changes outfits in a concert :)

ยท

Thank god, I am not alone! I switch my watch probably 3-4 times a day when I work from home. I would put on a watch that I think would be good for the day in the morning, but then other watches will look at me -- if not yell -- to be worn throughout the day.

2-3 times a day sounds about right. ย :)

I put on an office causal outfit and a "work watch" (usually my Speedmaster or maybe another mechanical) for my morning meetings. ย Then I switch into sweats and take along one of my solar watches (G-Shock or Citizen) on my daily 30 minute after-lunch walk. ย 

Afterwards, depending on whether I have afternoon meetings lined up, I'll either switch back to my work outfit or keep the sweats and solar combo on until the end of the work day.

Who needs a watch winder when we can keep them all on rotation ๐Ÿ˜‚

The struggle is real!

ยท

It depends on whatโ€™s going on. Sometimes 2 or 3 changes, but usually for a reason.ย 

ยท

I do it to keep them running so I don't have to constantly set them ๐Ÿ˜‚

ยท

I wear a Marathon Navigator with tritium on a super comfortable SWC velcro strap to sleep in, so that is change #1 in the morning. ย It would be safe to say as few as two and as many as four or five per day. ย I am glad to see I am not alone!

ยท

I started wearing 1 watch per month. Changing daily got to be a pain in the butt as is changing weekly.ย 

ยท

Itโ€™s 2:00 here and Iโ€™m on my second watch of the day. Chances are Iโ€™ll probably switch out at least one more time today.ย 

ยท

At least once a day.

I have also been known to double-watch on occasion, because who the hell is gonna stop me ๐Ÿ˜Ž๐ŸคŸ

ยท

It depends on what I am doing that day, if I got out for a grocery run I'll switch to something on a leather strap, since I wear my most comfortable cloth straps at home.ย 

ยท

Iโ€™ll sometimes change from a steel bracelet to leather if Iโ€™m writing a proposal or something, Iโ€™d rather avoid the home office diving scratches as long as possible ๐Ÿ˜†

ยท

Not very much - I may switch it up for a workout or if I am going to do something where I know I might be recklessly putting my watches into dangerโ€ฆ

Kaffee: Grave danger?
Jessep: Is there another kind?

You all need me on that wall, and I am here for you. ๐Ÿ˜‚ย 

ยท

At least twice a day. ย Diver with a rubber strap for working on the computer and Garmin Solar Instinct for the daily run.

ยท

Very glad to know that I'm not the only one that does this ๐Ÿ˜€

ยท

Oops forgot to quantify...A minimum of 2X a day!

ยท

Definitely guilty of thisย 

ยท

Me, too... ย Sometime I even put the boxes in front of me, as I dialed into these endless Zoom meetings :-))

ยท

2-3 times a day? I asked my wife she said no.ย

Iโ€™ll often go through 3 or 4 in the morning, but normally Iโ€™ll settle in to one for the rest of the day. ย It normally involves some โ€œwhy am I wearing this, when I could be wearing that?โ€ ย Double-watching could be the answer! ย Iโ€™m sure most people wouldnโ€™t notice, but my wife would tease me relentlessly!

ยท

Maybe once? Usually due the first watch being worn out of "autopilot" mentality from the day before.

ยท

Usually change watches every day but morning selection remains all day long. My son switches 2 times a day and I am starting to think it is a good idea.ย
