Every watch has to have a role to play within the collection.

That role can be completely and utterly contrived, but a role they must play nonetheless.

24. One for every hour of the day.

But really, 24. I tell myself it’s only 13 because the cheapest 12 together cost the same as the average price of the most expensive 12.

I am only very mildly uncomfortable with this quantity.

Ya got some definite bangers in there, but I am deeply disturbed by the redundancy on display here.

Unless one was given to you by your grandpa, and the other was given to you by your Other grandpa, there’s simply no excuse to have both of those nearly-identical seiko divers.

Then those two nearly-identical dress seikos are themselves redundant with the GS (and JLC).

But maybe that’s just my 'tism acting up again 🤷‍♂️
