Too Many Chronographs

I was looking through my Flickr albums, and I came to a conclusion that I might have too many chronographs.

And I'm looking to add a couple more! The madness....

Very nice collection. Servicing all those watches must be a real pain for one's wallet.

Is this your current collection or your journey with flipping some of them?

This is part of my collection. I consider myself a hoarder, so no flipping for me.

+1

That is why I keep the number of pieces in a collection to a minimum.

Nice! I don't think there's such a thing as having too many Chronograph's. I'm obsessed with them now too.

I don't think a person can have too many chronographs.

They're extremely useful in a lot of settings.

The only other watch styles you would need would be a dress watch and a diver (maybe), and a GMT.

For many of us mechanical chronographs can push the limits of our budgets, but barring that problem, go for it.

Diverse chrono collection you have there. I'd recommend adding a Zenith El Primero.
