    Ordinarily I’d agree, it’s only down to the fact that I’ve had that W10 through thick and thin; I love the CWC W10s though so I bought one that wouldn’t make me cry and make snot bubbles if I lost it.

    Indeed, that's basically what I meant.

    I'm almost at my final three, after many years of springing all over the place. On a clear out currently to fund the last of the three (which I could just buy immediately, but I like to keep watch funds as separate from real life as I can).

    1. Evening, casual, business and dress. IWC XVI on a perforated leather with deployant.



    2. Pretty much all day until I get home. Damasko DC66 with the red bezel dot, on the rock hard bracelet.



    3. Swimming, cycling, holidays, beach... Sinn UX on the bracelet. Chronomaster has one in stock at the moment, a 2023 tegimented. I'm hoping it's still available when I've cleared out everything else.



    Everything I need and want. I have an extraordinary amount of straps in my watch drawers so I can chop and change as required.

    Wish me luck!

    Nice trio by the way, a few rungs up the ladder from mine to say the least.

    Thanks matey. I've had many lower rungs than this, and even now I consider to have three watches over £1,000 an obscene extravagance.

    I like all of your trio. Clarity is my chief requirement in any watch, and those three are very clean on the eye. Lovely.

    It's all relative. I'm firmly in the low hundreds range now (except for the Alpinist which was still three figures). I could afford higher but I find the cost or higher value of the watch doesn't add any more pleasure.

    I know what you mean. Despite none of mine being anything like the most expensive I've ever owned, they all satisfy my criteria.
