Some of you might have more then 3-5 watches. How do you take turn using those watches?

I myself have about 5 good watches, a few below rm1000 watches found it hard to change and using thise watches especially automatic watches.

type of strap and budget in mind?
*
leather or carbon looks.

budget is fine whatever price. if RM500 and worth it would not be an issue. but if RM100 has similar quality with those higher price, i would rather buy RM100. dont mind the brand as my priority will be confort and looks good on my eye.

Omega is pulling back all their ADs to focus on boutiques, you might not get those discounts much longer. Boutiques probably offer you 8%.

really? that's good news for current owners then.

Actually both are good brand, I will say go for the watch you you like instead of  the brand.

Guys,

I have a question about how to maintain an automatic watch.

I read some articles stating that keep the watches running will harm its movement while some other said leave automatic watches (not moving) in long time will be bad for the watches.

So, I am in dilemma. Should I get a watch winder to store my watches? Or should I just keep my watches in safebox for 1-2 months without using? Which is the best?

Seems like not using will have problem while over use will also causes problem.

Please share how to rotate your watches, etc.

No, unless you have a perpetual calendar or a moonphase, it's pretty much pointless to have a winder.

It takes no more than a couple of minutes to set the time.

i mean, if i leave my wathces unused for 2-3 months, it will not cause any problem?

Ok. Thanks guys. So We can conclude that leaving watches for a few months will not cause any issue.

Thank u very much for recommendation. All look good.
If say I extend budget to 1k , can I get a better one? I forget to include one thing is that he likes mechanical watch. Mechanical watch is more pricey?
