Lovely collection, very classy watches.
That Ming is stunning, thanks for posting
Lovely collection, beauty and the beast.
LOL, my take on the lockdown must be opposite to yours, as it swayed towards a one-handed MeisterSinger at one point.
You've got a very specific theme to your liked watches. Quite up the dressy end, which isn't a complaint, just an observation of difference.
I prefer simplicity, all them are definitely better with all the additional minute details - take the Ming, as I have that incoming later this year. All those additional markers are faaaar too fussy and would ruin the watch....
I've tried owning watches without minute markers and they drive me up the wall - instead of sensibly thinking, oh it's going on for twenty to, I start trying to work out the exact time. Which takes forever.
I agree that I've ruined that Ming particularly, but that last Stiletto Eco Drive is already fussy with the dial texture, a few little dabs of paint wouldn't hurt. (Nor make it any thicker....)
Dabbing a forefinger onto my phones screen 48 times....I feel uncomfortable co-opting the name of someone's mental illness for the degree of accuracy one prefers when looking at the time, but no, I don't need a second hand for satiating my curiosity. (I do like watching them shimmy around the dial, but that's something else.)
I once had a two hander and I would love to have another one, but, as you can see above, an awful lot of designers presume that if you can live without a second hand, you can live without minute markers.
Der Amf - I think this watch is what you need...
That VC is very pretty. An exercise in exclusion. Nothing unnecessary on the dial.
Silver dials can be hit or miss, sometime white is also a bit too white. I prefer off-white dials (which the VC also nails perfectly) personally. Maybe a reason why my collection only has one off-white/white dial watch.

What would your prescription be here - one of my favourite watches - where the existing track is partitioned every 15s?
(The minute hand is long enough, and sharp enough, to make this scale very readable.)
