For the last year or so, I have worn ole trusty. A Hamilton khaki scuba. It happens to be equipped with the Nivichron hair spring and is by far the most accurate mechanical watch I own. It didn't cost much and I don't care if it gets banged around at work. I wear it day in and day out and surprisingly it held up very well.

the rest are just standing by to be worn..... Sad I know.

SD43 gets the most wrist time.

I wear my SD4K (116600) by far the most often. Also have a 216570 Polar and a 114060. Just love the weight and classic proportions of the Sea-Dweller along with date and glidelock. Perfection!

Shhhhh! Don’t say that too loud.

Others who haven’t worn/tried on SD4K seem to think it’s disagreeable.

Me:
16710 as work watch, then 116600, finally Speedmaster.
Love Sub-date but the SD supplanted it.

For me, it’san issue as have too many watches.

I have to say that my vintage Cartier Panthere and Santos followed by any of my DD’s

So that’s my 5 watches that are worn the most, due to a very busy schedule, and fact that they are in my safe and requires time to go through rotation.

I’m beginning to think of downsizing collection but it’s hard as one gets attached to models /.collection and it’s different hard to do!

Anyway at this moment its Cartier vintage and then any DD,

Most days I wear my Apple Ultra 2 until I’ve hit 10,000 steps, then it comes off and the Sub Date goes on.

I'm attempting yet again to get down to 4 luxury timepieces with the understanding that 2 will be worn 80% of the time. The other 2 will be for dressy occasions and travel only.

Bu in reality I could do just fine with 2 only. I just know that will never happen.

...I should have specified that my SD43 and white Moonwatch are the ones that grab the vast majority of wrist time.

I currently have 12 watches in rotation and it depends on what I am wearing or what I am doing. When I coach baseball, it's either one of my two subs or my Seamaster. Wearing blue? My bluesy or my 50th anniversary Snoopy. Wearing green, my Breitling Navatimer with the mint green dial. And then there are ones that I can wear with anything like my RG Daytona on OF.

These two have dominated my wrist recently, but typically I do a good job of switching it up across the collection.

My Panerai currently. Love the quick strap change system (right now, its on the blue oem rubber strap). I haven't worn by sub in over a month now. The gmt also comes in handy.

I just returned from Vegas and visited a lot of ADs and boutiques and realized there are SOOO much better and nicer looking watches out there than Rolex.

Omega boutique had 2 new white dial speedys in stock. It's super nice and it looks BETTER than daytona. The new aqua terra line is also really neat and Omega colored dials > Rolex. I handled the new mint green DJ at Rolex Ad and didnt like the dial...in real life, the green is really muted and online pictures (even from folks) are edited and enhanced. The white/black dials are the best since both are lacquered unlike the "sunray" dials.

Also visited a IWC AD and love their dress line. Panerai also has some cool looking models.

I'm on the waitlist for white dial DJ on jubliee or polar Exp2 but this would be my last rolex. After this, I'm switching to other brands. That white speedy is hot on my wishlist right now.

PS: The new Tag Aquaracer line is so fantastic and gives Omega a run too...new movements are cosc certified and they look even better in person with the new 42mm cases.

Each gets a day's wear and then put back in the sock draw. Having said that the Black Bay 58 has just had two weeks continual wear in Florida

Lately it's been a VC Overseas Chrono, but it always seems to revert to a Sub.

Last 12 months: BLNR 60%, BP FF Act 1, 30%, AP RO 15500 7%, BP fifty fathoms trilogy 3%, Rolex Sub date 0% (sold because of that), omega aqua terra 0% (too personal for me to sell).

All pretty equal wrist time, but it has become increasingly difficult to put the Tudors down.....

Usually my 126234 Datejust, 3861 Moonwatch, and 126713 TT GMT, in no particular order of priority but mostly depending on mood and clothes. However, my wife offered my a little gem for my birthday lately, and i absolutely adore wearing it.
