I think as long as you will wear them and enjoy them then thats reason enough to buy a watch.
Lots of people ask me why I wear different watches when I own 3 Rolex. I tell them can you eat steak every single day for the rest of your life. I love my Rolex watches but I'll wear my other watches during working hours & my Rolex for after work & weekends. Once I retire next year my Rolex watches will see more wrist time.
