I would keep the AP, Reverso, Speedy and Nomos - the rest I would get rid of.

Yes. I would probably try to keep a white face watch since you have several though.

I sure would!! that Daytona is amazing and a go everywhere do everything watch

if you had that and could keep you collection, you would never wear anything but the Daytona anyway

and when you where wearing something else you would be asking yourself why am I not wearing my Daytona!

I would sell off everything you don't wear (or that wasn't given to you as a gift). Get rid of the sunk costs and move on to something you'll love.

I totally agree.

I'm with Rookie on this one. I'm not a daytona fan, but the WG/blue dial combo is just stellar!

Also, the older I get, trying to be a one (up to 3...) watch guy. Still trying...

keeping 2 watches synchronized is a lot less time consuming than synchronizing 12

I would in a second. Perhaps I'd keep the Speedy or Tudor for an everyday "beater" when I didn't want the AP or 116509 or in a scenario where I would overly worry about scratches.

I'd probably keep the AP, sell everything else off, and then use the money for something like a vacation.

Seems like there's a high potential for regret. I've never flipped more than 2 at once. But if you can't get the Daytona out of your head and the watches aren't being worn regularly...it's the right move.
