POLL: How many watches are currently in your collection?

Trying to gauge the number of watches that everyone has as part of their collection TODAY.

To be fair - let's look at 'luxury' watches only, so anything valued at $1K new and above...(so no apple iwatches, gshocks, michael kors and the like)...

I'll start - I currently have 1 Rolex, 2 Panerai and 1 Baume & Mercier

Let's see how nutty some of you get with this!

Well, if you consider Rolex and Tudor "luxury" watches, then I have seven, but I voted before reading the OP and counted all 25+ watches.

Four Rolex and three Tudor.

I have a Frederique Constant, so if that counts as "luxury," then I have eight.

That's all the watches I have that cost more than $1000.

I personally don't like the term "luxury" when applied to watches and just like to call them expensive.

I love all my watches equally.

Indeed. If there is anything you want in particular let me know I can put you in contact with someone if you can't find it at the ad.

2 Rolex
1 Tudor
1 Raymond Weil Parsifal (from way back when)

Would love to add more, but I feel I get a lot of value from what I currently have.
