I have been up to as many as 14 and scaled back to 4 and have been in the 6-9 range for awhile. I currently have 5 Rolexes-YG and WG Sky-Dweller, Hulk, Polar Explorer II and a Date Just. I have 5 Tudors-Heritage Chrono Blue, BB Black, BB Bronze, Pelagos Blue and LHD. I also have a Tag Monza LE and a Seiko Turtle. I will buy the Tag Autavia on the rice bracelet and have a close look at the SD43 and the new Tudor Chrono. No plan now to thin out the collection but can always be tempted with a new release. I have stopped thinking about the number of watches and buy what I like and where them when I want.

Currently 3, all Rolex

Adding one more Rolex, and perhaps a Panerai or IWC

I am almost a one-watch guy.

I have a Tudor Submariner as my main wearer. I have an El-Cheapo stainless steel dress watch on a leather strap for Church (or suits). I have Casio Illuminator for exercise or yard work.

Over the years have owned 3 other Rolex models one at a time as the main wearer. I will probably hang on to the Tudor for a long time.

Pretty much uncountable. I collect and rarely sell my own watches and then I also run a company that manufactures and sells watches / watch parts / accessories / tools and I build custom-made dive watches... so there's watches just everywhere, all the time.

Too many... sometimes I toy with the idea of consolidating , then I wear one that I thought I'd consider selling/flipping, and remember why I liked it in the first place (when I bought it), and can't seem to part with it

I think the sweet spot is between 3-5 luxury timepieces. I currently have two automatics (Rolex 16200 and 116610) and a few beater/sentimental quartz.
