When I bought my GMT IIc at the beginning of the year, I thought it was the "ONE". Then I bought 3 more between then and now. Definitely not a 1 watch person! Reading this forum doesn't help me much either.

I had four and then sold them all to purchase one full gold model. My other watches were nice but never captured my imagination and inspired me the way my yg GMT does..

I know the feeling man!

Too many cool watches out there. Now I'm finding it hard to stick to one brand, let alone one watch.

I'm trying to boil it down to a collection of 3-5 watches. Don't think I'll ever have just 1.

At the moment I only have 1 watch: a Rolex Sub C! I love it and at the moment, I can't think of any other watch that would be better (for me). It's also perfect for my work: it looks like a simple SS watch for many people.



However, in a few years time, I would love to buy this watch: a A. Lange & Söhne Saxonia:


In my eyes, I would than have a perfect combination!

No, I will need at least 4 in my rotation. Dive, GMT, Chronograph and a vintage.

Well thats the plan but I can see it being more.

I'd like to get your first four from the shoulder. I'm only 2 away. At that I'd be good. Looks good though.
