I’m a one watch guy when I travel.

I just don’t feel comfortable leaving them behind at a hotel.

One. Bring more than that and there is a real risk the others not on your wrist get gone.

I love the speedy, but fear it may not hold up well should my vacation involve water. Do you wear your in the water and if so, how has it held up?

The last thing on my mind on holiday would be what watches take or to wear.

I never wear any of my watches in water, just not something I do for 'just incase' reasons lol.

Depends on where I am going and what I will be doing when I get there. We own a place at the coast and sometimes I take them all when we are in our own space. Other times usually a nice SS watch and a PM with a couple of Seiko's or Casio's thrown in for fun.

depends on where i’m going, what i plan to be doing, and whether or not i want to even think about extra watches back at the hotel or airbnb.

for instance, i spent six weeks in hawaii this spring. i took the batman, the daytona, my Linde Werdelin dive watch, and my g-shock.

when i was in scotland last fall, i just took my batman.

if it’s a snowboarding trip i take my explorer.

etc.

YMMV

I bring one 90% of the time. The other 10% of the time it depends on the vacation.

1-3 depending on where I’m going.
I find it a great part of the holiday to decide which watches to wear.

I took one on my recent vacation and not really sure I would take several. Depends on where I'm staying and what I'm doing while away.
