If you had to guess...

...how many watches do you see yourself buying this year?

I have 2 on the way and I see 2 more.................I think.

0.......have too many other priorities than to be buying watches this year, engagement ring for the girlfriend, saving money so we can get a place together, and hopefully a nice vacation as well. Watches just will not fit into the budget at all this year, and if I did purchase one, it would probably be at the very, very end of the year....well, unless I hit the lotto...

LMAO!

1 or 2

This:



and perhaps a Stowa Airman

Mark, that Tudor is beautiful. Wouldnt mind seeing some real world pics of it , when you do pick it up....Great looking watch.

Going to say somewhere between 4, and 8 ! ..All depends on whether
the watches are of the more affordable variety, or I try to go a little
more mid-range for the first time in the coming year ! ..Still that
number could possibly change in either direction to be honest Alan !

Hmmm...probably 4-6 depending on budget (yes I have one). Already at 2 (1 here and waiting for the release of another). Honestly 2010 was such a banner year with a higher bar for me - only high-end stuff remains. So, the number can't be too high for me. Will be interesting to review this thread next year.

I'm going to try and limit myself to 2. I want to reacquire a Sinn U1 (or maybe a UX). Not sure what else. Maybe an Omega SMP.

I am VERY happy with my current collection. Something is going to really have to WOW me to get me to buy this year...

i would say between 10-15,depending on how many i sell.lol

Just about gone through all the ones I wanted to try and most of the ones I want are out of my price range so I am gong to say 4 to 6 but I dont think it will be that many unless some new models come to market.
Never say never however.

I'm gonna do more selling this year then buyn' If all work according to my WIS plan
w/ the sales I want a Sinn U1 & this is the year I WILL OWN A PANERAI, if ALL goes as planned.
So my final answer is who the F***K knows

3........But what a threee they will be.......Quality over Qty,,,,,

You slant is toward quality...

I bought two last year and I'm going to try to stick to that . Unless I have a big sell off..

I am still selling, and buying! I hope no more than 10 new ones, although I have already jumped at something......

Probably just one.....I've never owned a Carrera and if TAG ever gets off their butts and exports the 1887 chrono to the US, I'll take a good, hard look.

It may depend on how many I sell. Trying to upgrade the whole collection but there are some that either wont sell, or not worth the hassle of selling.

I may have an unexpected "inheritance" coming my way though.

I don't plan on buying any.
I'm thinking of selling two or three.

Realistically? I'd say 15-25, keeping in mind I sometimes buy to flip. I've got a 1970-ish Hamilton chronograph on eBay now that's at almost triple my cost, with two more days to go.
