    I'm spitballing cutting the number of watches in my box. Still have 12 and tbh, it's too many for me. I've been contemplating selling a few and rolling them into something top tier, build a 3 or 4 watch rotation around my Omega & Blancpain or just going all in on Sinn and adding a damaszener to the 4 I currently have.

    The real problem is, that although 1 half of my brain is in the "sell" camp, the other half can't let anything go🤷‍♂️

    Seven Sinns, do it.

    I’m not far off Seven Samurai myself.

    Recently had a declutter myself and strongly recommend it.Im wearing watches now that I enjoy as opposed to wearing a watch just because I haven’t worn it in a while.I still have too many but am down to about 10 keepers that I know I want plus a few more I’m waiting to move on .Previously I was up to over 40.

    New rule for me is two watches max per brand .Did the 5 or 6 pieces with Tudor and probably 20ish with Seikos and any more than 3 of the same brand and there’s too many similarities.Plenty of watches out there to try instead of locking funds up in similar pieces or rarely worn watches

    The green Monro is gone, the Tudor is currently with one of my brothers and tbh, is likely sold at this point. I'm not counting the watch at bottom left as it's a self built one 😉

    The Citizen and the Sinn U2-SDR are probably definitely keepers, I have a spare bezel for that and a few strap combos that make it a versatile piece. That said, the U2-W is 069 of 150 and child that I am, I giggle every time. The red Monro is 1 of only 3 and I'd probably keep it on that basis.

    The Accutron, well if I could find someone with a nice Omega Piepan willing to swap? That'd be the young lads 21st bday watch sorted.

    Honestly, the temptation is strong 😁

    That's what I think I'm approaching now. Too many to really enjoy, as much time spent wondering what to wear, as spent just enjoying the watch on your wrist.
