    I’m likely in the minority but I only ever travel with one watch, on the wrist. Just less opportunity to lose something.

    X3. I traveled 3-4 months of the year for work, my parents traveled more than I did for their work. The most valuable lesson I learned from them was ONLY take with you what is on your body when you leave the house.
    One watch.
    That said, wrapped in a sock inside a pair of shoes. If you have to leave that in your hotel room- that’s where you want them.

    I take a main watch and a Timex for expendable wear. I once traveled to the UK with a full watch roll for a Time For A Pint episode ( and business of course) . For over two weeks, I was never comfortable. I only want to manage what is on my wrist.

    Your like me, travel light for safety and lower the worry levels. The only downside is missing the other watches, but they are safe at home.

    My Oris '65 bought in '19 for my last 6 month trip will come with me again next time on a trip overseas. When travelling-driving within Australia an Omega or Rolex will join the Oris. Not to keen on taking more then that.

    To be fair, the dog thing is the wife's problem, not mine....
    Oh, hold on....
    (As I drive to another $$$$ vet appointment with her words from when it arrived, "Honestly you won't know she's here, you won't have to do anything," ringing in my head, mocking me)
