Is it just me or??

Do you wear several watches through out the day?? Often times I find myself changing 3 times. So far today it’s only been two times …

I can't say it's just you - only that it's not me! I'm a strictly one watch a day man. Not for any particular reason, I just put a watch on in the morning and that's it until I get ready for bed.

Whatever I put on stays on for 1-5 days usually at this point.

Sometimes I will wear the same watch for several weeks, hell I wore the same watch for nearly 10 years until it went in for service and added 7 more to my collection

With working from how these days, it has never been easier. I catch myself doing it constantly, and I judge myself for it. But who cares? Or better yet, who knows that I'm doing it but myself? :(

Obviously depends on what I have going on that day. Working from home all day, yeah it’s very likely I switch watches at least once lol.

I wear mine one day at a time unless traveling with a particular watch. Same principle as you though.

Yeah I’d don’t do this. I have a few in rotation but to be honest all sit in the safety deposit box except the one that’s being worn. My time is limited so I usually wear one for a month or two at a time instead of going to the bank to switch out watches.

Depends on the day. Could go a week never taking it off... or a few hours.

I do that occasionally when I get home. No real reason other than it’s just fun. For instance, I wore my explorer today on a leather strap. Went into my room and saw my 116508 on the stand and couldn’t resist switching them out.

In answer to your question...is it just me, I'd definitely have to say yes. Changing your watch 3x a day or even twice a day is not common at all.

Honestly it depends on what I’m doing. Last weekend I went to my dads house and had my BLNR on. But then I had to all of the sudden go into downtown LA. I’m sure most of you know about all of those robberies going on right now. Stopped by my place and slapped on the speedy. Ended up grabbing drinks with my buddies that night. Threw on the sub when I was getting changed.

TLDR: yes I do switch it up throughout the day

I do the same - working from home has done that to me.
Before - 1 watch a day, now - the world is my Oyster :-)

I may change within a day, but most typically, I wear one watch for a week or so, then switch.

I never did before, but this WFH situation has made me a serial switcher. I’ll switch three times a day sometimes.
