Depends on my working schedule. If I’m working early mornings it’s a Breitling which is tough as nails and shows it. Afternoon starts, BLNR on Everest and my wrist awareness hat is on. Lol

I've got a 3 watch rotation. I typically wear each for a week and then change.

No set schedule, although I just realized that I should probably have some schedule for washing all of them. With only one or two, it was no big deal to wash. Now, as the number has grown, I think I've gotten lazier about washing them all. I didn't realize how dirty my BLNR has gotten until I took a side pic today.

I've been going back and forth between my SubC and my Seiko Monster. Sometimes I'll throw in a green Alpinist when I have something green on. :D

Actually yes, I do. My 16610, and whatever other watch is my recent acquisition. Right now it's an Omega AT. I've been flipping that second watch probably an average of every 6 months, so I'm really looking for a keeper so I can go to a true 2watch rotation, which is all I want.

Anyone else have a strict two-watch rotation?

Rotation of my two for this lefty! LVc on my Lt. since it can take the beating & crown feels better against wrist; DJ on Rt. to match w/varied rings & gentler arm mvmt’s. Worn separately...of course :)

I have a couple of older Omega Seamasters that are no longer in rotation. These days I alternate between two watches. Usually I alternate days but sometimes I swap back and forth during the day.

For the most part, yes. Usually Daytona (RG/Strap) and a Sub (SS) However if I want to buy something new, something old must go.

Not really a 2 watch rotation but I wear my Sub most of the week and either the GMT or DJ once in a while when the mood strikes. Seems to work for me so far.

Right now rotating between an airking and a B.B. blue. Adding a ss GMT this fall and can’t wait. Don’t know how I’ll work out that rotation

Consolidated down to 36mm DJ blue dial roman for office and SubC ND for other casual wear, very similar to OP. Also have a wildcard GShock and an Apple Watch for exercise.

This was the two watch rotation awhile ago (both sadly were sold off to fund another purchase). I would wear one months at a time. I didn't like swapping back and forth repeatedly- couldn't bond with either watch. What ended up happening was I preferred the bluesy and really only wore the Explorer I out of guilt for just gathering dust in the safe.

Learned my lesson- I need color in a watch for me to enjoy it.

Yes, currently got the Seamaster GMT and Speedy in a two watch rotation. In a couple of months will switch to the Sub and the Oris regulator.

I wear 2 - 3 different watches each day. Purely enjoyment.

Anyone else have a similarly strict rotation?

Hard to argue with that combo.

I'm actually planning on doing exactly this. I sold off and consolidated my collection for one DD and have tried the one-watch thing for a bit, but have decided I would like some variation after all, and that switching between two would allow me to keep both running alongside each other, just as you do. And after being exclusively rolex for more than 15 years I've decided it's time to broaden my horizons... I've pretty much decided what I'm going for and hope to get my hands on it in the next week so I can start the rotation.

I rotate between 3 currently. A 16710 Pepsi and a 16610lv for Rolex and a speedy 60th LE. The Kermit is struggling for wrist time as I love the other 2. The speedy can be dressed up on nice straps, so is as dressy as I need currently.

No real science behind it. Gmt gets most time and the other 2 depends on what I fancy that morning.
