路17 for me, about 2/3 at the watch doc at the mo, but I could live with just owning half a dozen I reckon.

路Anyone remember this post from Kohei over on Timezone a few years back? This remains my favorite post ever, on any watch forum. The number of watches is staggering, and there's a lot of humor and tragedy in his commentary. And all that is even less than 1000 watches...

I just read that from start to finish and it blew my mind. I started to feel bad having only bought 4 watches this year, if I ever feel bad again I will read this post and will instantly feel better!

I remember seeing that thread when first posted and the first thing I did was show my wife...proof that I did not have "too many watches" already as she was claiming! No it didn't work...馃檨

路Around 20 at the moment, can't believe I have that many at the moment, knowing I started just recently.

And I thought I had an illness. Compared to this fellow, I'm in perfect mental health.

Yes. Luckily we can surround ourselves with like minded healthy people.

路My aim is to own ten watches, so far I have 5 and to be honest I am not sure how often 10 watches will get decent amount of wrist time, I suppose it will work out over the years, but what is the point of having a 1000 watches or even 100 watches sitting in boxes, unlike some things that people collect like stamps I think watches need to be worn so having too many is a bit of a waist.
I think ten would be my own max. I'm at 8 not including my G-Shock, and it's quite frankly a challenge to give each of them decent wrist time. I'm much more of a user than collector, so if I don't wear a watch it gets sold off. Luckily my wife helps make sure none gets neglected for too long, so I could probably push it to 10 quite happily.
