Peace of mind. ;)
I could actually stay with three watches (these two plus Lange) and finally have peace of mind.

Peace of mind and contentment seem to be notions unknown to watch collecting.

Nothing wrong with those three.
I’d like to get to “piece of mind” one day

Two great pieces!

I wish I had the will power to get down to 3-5 watches. I'm at 7 right now and have a couple watches I would still like to add

I have 5 premium watches left, but I still have 4 more on order.

That's the perfect duo, although I think you need a quad setup by adding the Lange and a Submariner! Then you're set!

Yeah if you are truly bitten by the bug the feeling of contentment is fleeting, unfortunate but true...

Any one of the 5 pieces you've shown could be a one watch collection. Congrats and enjoy

Adding your 116610LV makes a perfect foursome.

I wrote about three in the introduction. I showed 4 in the photos. The fifth is Sky-Dweller. However, I want to get down to 3 pieces and forget about all this chasing after more bunnies. Rest, rest and once again rest from this passion that has many signs of mental illness. I would like to wake up in the morning, not start the day with forum messages, think about watches, I would like to have a "free" and open mind...

You have such a great collection, I would keep all 5 of them.

We have similar collection, I have all 4 of your Rolexes but my ALS is Lange 1 Time Zone.

Time Zone needs a really solid wrist.

For watch people to get true piece of mind, it ain't the watches that is the underlying problem - it's sosial media and forums.

Log off IG, forums, et al - and keep the watches. I'll promise you that already after one week you'll be much happier with yourself and your watches.

However, logging off SoMe is probably more difficult than stop drinking. Try logging off all SoMe-platforms for 30 day. Take it as a challenge.
