    Very minimalistic. Although I think two is a couple, three is a collection!

    As @tyrantlizardrex says, once you own three of something you're a collector -- whether you like it or not. ;)

    Three can be just a trio, not necessarily a collection :p

    I tried the moon watch but it felt too big for my small wrist wrist plus like the idea of it being automatic

    I admire you if you can really stick with two. I thought the same thing. That three would be enough. Well that was quickly proven wrong. Enjoy your watches.

    I applaud your restraint. But think about all the frustration you are missing out on by not trying to acquire more timepieces!!!!!!

    I've been doing that for the last 40 years and had so many watches I've lost count it must be 100+ if not more but now finally settled on the two best watches ever IMO

    Nobody likes a quitter.[emoji4]

    How does that Eagles song go? You can quit, but you can never leave....

    You'll be back, oh yes....you'll be back.
