I find it stressful to leave the other one un attended - gotta keep it locked up!

3-5 I’m a bit nuts. I like to dive - Black Sub. I like to have a sub w color in the warmer weather - Sub LV. I love my Daytona’s. Plus I pay for insurance so if they are stolen I’m covered.

For the first time while travelling I took two watches with me last week. My Octo Finissimo Automatic for evening and my SD43 for day. It was nice to be able to change while away.

Always go away with just one, but sometimes come back with more, especially if visiting Japan.

Usually I travel with just my SD4K because it is so damn robust and a GPS receiver for running. But this current trip is over 3 months and I felt like wearing my EXPII freccione from time to time.

Depend on how long and where to go. If one week and at the beach then my Sub. If in the cities then could be my Daytona. Don’t want any hassle of extra care for bringing more than 1 watch.

Seems like some of you have good insurances, should get that for peace of mind.

Usually bring 1-2 depending on where I'm going and how long. Explorer II is usually a given no matter if it's Zanzibar or Sicily.

If I'm staying in hotels, one and it doesn't leave my wrist unless I'm in the hotel room.

Usually it all depends on how long the vacation would take, if I would spend about a week or two weeks I would take at least 3 dials with me.
