·First thought: I had "one watch" for something like the first forty-five years of my life.
Second thought: just think of the time spent over the last twenty-three years fiddling about with multiple watches, buying, selling, researching, forum activity: all time that I'll never get back.
Third thought: If I sell everything in a controlled and planned manner I should get most of my money back whereas if I die with my boots on and it falls to my heirs to dispose of all these watches there's no telling how much they'll get back.
Fourth thought: If I go slowly gaga I should plan on having one watch, a watch that'll take care of itself, no require winding, not require the date to be flipped over when there aren't 31 days in the month. On the other hand would I even know or care at that point?
Conclusion: it's all about now and I'm not going to put myself through the angst of choosing one watch to rule them all. Unless it's my Seamaster Regatta Chrono.
