I own too many watches. Most of them are quartz based [among of them a Seiko "Final Fantasy"], but also some analog ones, like the Porsche Design Titanium from the early '80s. Nowadays I don't care for them anymore. For about 15 years, my EDW is an Audemars-Piguet Royal Oak Offshore Chronograph Titanium. Don't want to trade it in for any other.
