I got tired of setting watches in my collection since I rarely wear the same watch two days in a row. If someone asks for time I look at my phone anyway. So I treat my vintage watches as bracelets. If someone points to the watch showing the wrong time ( which has never happened) I’ll say it’s set to a different time zone. Am I the only one who does this? I also want to protect the skin on my fingers, some watches require force to wind them daily.

    I have many manual wind watches and I rotate between them quite often. I do agree having to wind them everyday can be a bit tiring.

    You can try winding them a few times to last the 10 to 12 hours I’ll have them on any given day. Rather then winding them to the full power reserve every time.

    I like watches, not bracelets. If I have to wind and set a watch, it’s a pleasure.

    Attention all the losers who downvoted my original post ( yet here you are commenting on it ) and all the losers who will downvote this one: everything you like, and everything you do, I liked and did 5 years ago. Clowns.
