Congrats on your new DJ41! The white dial looks great and a nice choice when you aren't wearing the Sub.

Great exercise. Congratulations!!!

I did a similar thing in November. It took a load off my shoulders and left me with watches I wanted. I'd much rather "want what I have" as opposed to always "having what I want." I'm happy with my small collection and have no desire to enhance it.

I started the watch game late 2014, since then I’ve had almost everything from DJ to SkyD to Daytona C. Lately I am convince that all we ever need is 2-3 watches max and I am in the process of thinning down the herd and picking the best 2-3 combo but I don’t know where to start.

Follow your gut. Once I factored out “hot piece, resale value” and stuck with what moved me most I ended up with the SubC and DJ41. Trust your instincts.

You know we have a disease as long as we hang out on TRF. It will never be enough on here.

Love the idea.

I went from 8 to 3 and am thinking about going down to 2.

Dress and everything else.
