One Rolex since 1985, but several other watches that I enjoy,including B&M, Omega, Tag Heuer, Seiko, Casio, Swiss Army.

I would like an Explorer 1016 however but I doubt it is in the near future.

JJ, thats a nice toss. I got bored of getting other watches and still primarily wearing the same watch and selling the newest watch after boredom set in.

I only have one, the 14060. The one that gets the most wrist time right now is my Breitling Chrono Avenger. The sub only gets worn on parties as it looks dressy.

Now with the Omega bond about to be born on 25th of Dec, it will be competing fiercely for wrist time as well.

My advice would be to keep the two you would then have. Not because I think they are the greatest or any of that utter BS, just because once you start switching around, it is impossible to stop.

Just curious JJ.
If you like the Plat/SS Yacht, why didn't you get one instead of the TT one you just sold???

Becuase at the time I was enamoured by the YG bezel of the TT YM...but now I'm really happy with the TT Blue Sub!!

That SS/Pt. YM is more or less a dream....but who knows?

I have only one Rolex that I usually wear daily. A Tissot that I wear if I know I'll be in a situation where the watch can get scratched. And a Fossil that I've had for years which is limping along.
