Icon10 Ocd ?

Who else here finds themselves switching or changing out their Rolex at some point during the day? I start the day off with my SD or Milgauss but after work it usually is the GMT II C or the YM. Anyone else do this or just me OCD??????

Only you Rich.

Kidding aside, I do it sometimes, just for the sake of changing to a different model when we go out for dinner.

I change watches through the day all the time, but lately it's always been ExpyII during the day, and something else in the evening, not necessarily Rolex.

Went to my factory this morning (Alpha). Changed to LV late morning and wore SD shopping in the afternoon.

OCD - yes I think so.

So....are your watches on winders or do you set the time and date every time you strap one on? I suppose from a practical standpoint wearig each watch on some sort of rotation would at least keep them all wound up.

By the way...I'm no phsycologist but I don't think the "problem" you have could be classified as OCD. I you had you'd be strapping on the *exact* same watch at *exactly* the same time every day and you'd be doing realy freaking out if things didn't go to plan.
