How often do you rotate through?

Having multiple watches, as I'm sure the majority here do, how long do you wear a watch before you swap to a different one?

I usually last about a week, unless I see another which takes the eye….

·

Everyday on workdays. Couple of times a day when I’m home😁

·

Every 2-3 days or so. Usually when I feel guilty about abandoning the others.

·

C. Weekly. Wednesday tends to be my switch out day …

·

Interesting results so far. I'd like everyone who votes for D to leave a comment, let's see who has the most obscure change routine!

·

I voted B, but with a specific caveat.

I switch it up daily when I'm home or on vacay. When I'm traveling for work or out in the field, usually wear the same thing every day. If I'm feeling froggy I'll bring multiple straps.

·

can be every few days, but often is 1-2 weeks.

·

Sometimes a couple of times a day, sometimes once a week. No rationale to it

·

I change at least once a day, I usually come home and take off my work watch (5610) and slip into something more comfortable and simple either with a NATO or a steel bracelet for the evening, then at the weekends unless I'm needing something specific I'll ask my wife what she thinks I should wear and she usually goes through my watch box and picks things I've not worn in a while.

·

Usually i go with B since i line up my watches and go through one each day, but i have started having favorites and been wearing those more often.

·

i usually go 4-5 days before switching!

·

D - rotate weekly, but depending on where I'm going/what I'm wearing, I will switch to a more appropriate watch if necessary (i.e. if it is the week for the G-Shock, but I'm going to a business meeting, I'll swap it out).

·

At least twice per day.

One to start the day (sometimes an afternoon change) and one for the evening. The evening watch should have a high-contrast dial to help with the waning light.

·

I usually wear whatever watch I feel like wearing each day, which usually turns out to be a different watch each day. But sometimes I wear two watches in a day, sometimes I wear the same watch for two days.

·

Having re-discovered my enjoyment of watches, I'm changing every day. But I think that'll slow down at some point, lol.

·

The way I do it: A new watch for a new day, but after I get home from work, I switch to my Grand Diver, because it's an automatic, and I like to keep it wound. So I wear it for the 6 or so hours before bed. If I ever get another automatic, I'm going to be forced to buy a watch winder! LOL 🤣 I hate the thought of my automatic watches exhausting their power reserve, and coming to a halt. 😬

·

B - Working from home makes it too easy to watch over to the watch box and switch one out!

·

I wear whichever one takes my fancy on the day. Or a g-shock if I’m going to be doing something DIYesque.

·

Sometimes daily, sometimes more than one in a day. It depends how busy I am with work.

·

I change on a whim. Sometimes I change in one, two or three days. Sometimes it’s a week. It depends on how I’m enjoying the watch I’m wearing at the time.

·

Because I keep my collection in a safety box, changing is infrequent. But, I actually like it this way. I tend to have a watch on the wrist 4 to 6 weeks. It really makes me appreciate the watch. Then, when I change up it’s almost like experiencing the next watch like it’s new all over.
