It's that time of year again for my annual State of the Collection (SOTC) video! In this watch collection update for 2023, I share my current collection, most worn watch of 2023, favorite watches, why I love them, which pieces have stayed, watches that have left, those on the chopping block, grail goals for 2024, and thoughts on how my perceptions and wearing habits have changed over the course of this year. Following my aim to halve my 2022 collection by the end of the year, and a subsequent massive purge, this year's SOTC is my smallest yet! And although the number of watches I've had the honor and pleasure of co-designing has resulted in a watch collection of its own, this year's SOTC does not include those pieces, which I've covered in previous videos. Join me for one of my favorite videos of the year, and please share your current SOTC in the comments below!
