Do you wear more than 1per day?
My wife was making fun of me tonight. Came home from work, changed clothes and an hour later felt like changing watches. Switched the hulk for an tag that I don't wear too often.
I started thinking, I do this a lot. Anyone else or am I an odd duck? |

I switch occasionally. I usually have only two pieces out of the security box at the bank at once, so it isn't too often that I switch in a single day.

Yes, especially if I go downtown or walk the dog, or whatever.

Often I change watches if I am going out with clients in the evening. It gives me a reason to wear one of my "special occasion" watches.

Mostly every day. Rolex for work, then various others for play time, yard work, swimming, etc. Not that the Rolex can't take it, but just for variety.
When I travel I take 2 or 3 watches for a 3 day business trip. |

I change mine all the time, I don't want any of them feeling neglected. :) And I'm anal about my watches being more than a couple of seconds off of standard time so it gives me a chance to "fine tune" them every so often.

I'm in the minority here. Not usually.
But I totally get the rationale for doing so... |

Every time I switch watches, I take off the one I'm wearing and put in the safe deposit box and take one out to wear.
I do this about every two weeks or so. I've been known to wear two at a time, but that's for another thread.

Very often and I find it's fun and refreshing. Believe it or not I get bored with the same watch even for just one day. The wife thinks I'm nuts too.

Two or three a day.
Tend to use the Sub as my fall-back day to day watch, but, for example, then wearing it out to dinner in the evening would feel like not changing my shirt!
