·I realized that, after sending off my most recent sale, my Omega collection now stands at one watch.

That top row was recently filled with Omegas. If I separate out the financial reasons for this shift, the very slim remaining explanation would be something like: I spent several weeks away from home with just one Chronostop Seamaster, the biggest, chunkiest watch I’ve ever owned, came back and managed (thanks to @Scarecrow Boat) to obtain a bracelet for the Seamaster 145.016-68 chronograph in the top left corner and found myself wearing these big tool watches much more than the 1960s166.010s and earlier designs that used to be my sweet spot.
I am still a big fan of the watches I no longer have, especially the 166.010 family, which I’m sure I’ll one day have to own again, but looking at the state of the collection now, I seem to have settled on mostly black-dialed tool watches as my style. Is your collection right now an accurate picture of your taste in watches? How much turnover are you seeing?
