    I'm going for a week and bringing 3.... two in a travel case one on the wrist. I'm also bringing a few extra straps. It's been very stressful deciding what to bring

    not nearly enough...
    you will need one vintage watch for breakfast, next for lunch, and then again another for dinner.
    depending on how late you are staying out, you should then change again for the night out. rinse and repeat.

    I think you just need a bigger case :)

    I often think of the innoscent onlooker's inner dialogue.

    "Am I losing my mind or was this mother::censored:: wearing three different watches today?
    I'm in the wrong business!"

    assuming you were staying at a hotel, where do you keep that so it is safe? hotel safe? seems inconvenient

    Hmmm....you are trying to add logic/sensible to this!

    Caught me! That's actually the big case and rarely gets out, it's the one that goes to the bank and stays behind for long trips. We have a couple smaller ones (one for watches, one for jewelry) that fit in the standard room safes, to take along when traveling "light", but for our favourite places, the management has gotten to know us, so happy to let the good stuff live "in the back".

    A back-up watch in case of failure, and redundancy for both the original watch and the back-up. Makes perfect sense to me. Are you an aerospace engineer?

    I might take two max. I hate leaving anything in the hotel room safes.

    Heading off for a week later this month. Will have a TinTin on my wrist, and a Sinn UX in my carry-on. The TinTin will be the regularly-worn watch, and the Sinn will be for playing out in the snow with my 4-year-old. The Sinn also serves as a great 'bubble watch' for the nights I have bath duty -- it always gets cups of water poured overtop, and an occasional shampoo or soap slathering.

    Might as well be. Mirrors one of my team's own mottos which speaks to reliability and resilience through diversity and redundancy.
