Since Prezzie clarified that the poll covers all watches you own, I went with 25+. I've got 10 good mechanical ones and a whole bunch of quartz Casios, Seikos, and a few others.

I have 6 good ones plus some Gshocks.

Also... while reading this thread I just noticed that somebody is using one of my photographs as an avatar. What happened to asking for permission first? I'm a nice guy, but the right thing to do is ask. You know who you are, and you know I'm right.

Rado Diastar was my first watch that my sister gave it to me as a present when I graduated Engineering school. I still wear it sometime with a very good memory.

I have too many watches, may be because I just buy only, no sell or trade.

About 20, but I have a lot of vintage Seikos that skew the numbers. Do they count?
