Woah... Never seen anything like that!
If there is a collective noun for watches, when they reach your number, it should be a 'proliferation'. No...'murmuration' is better, a better visual image, me thinks. It doesn't look like you do anything approaching small(ish); and heaven's forbid, dress. In the other brands, the Elliot Brown Canford is clearly a design language that speaks to you. I would imagine that date changes and clocks going forwards/back precipitates a day off work.
Enjoy them all...in the very best of health.
Small? Got a C65 Sandhurst last November. That's small enough I think.
Dress? Nothing specifically dress, although I tend to use my Visitor Duneshore occasionally.
Date changes? On an 'as required' basis.

Simplest way for me to explain myself, Stephen, is to invite you to read my first SOTC from December 2014, posted having been a forum member for a little over two years and 3,000 posts.
I feel the forum has a lot to answer for thereafter.
Aha, Im now up to speed and thoroughly enjoyed the 3000 post SOTC thread, interesting read and pics. Great watch journey and some very nice pieces along the way.
The Kemmner was interesting to me as I stumbled on an interesting watch (Kemmner) couple of years ago and was close to buying when Roland retired and shut up shop. Anyway I sort of moved on but still like some of his pieces.

How you manage all those Guy is way beyond me! Awesome.
Simple really. I have a number of watch boxes. Take a watch out, wear it, put it back. Simples. (sorry, being flippant).
In reality; with difficulty.
I have a fabled Excel Spreadsheet, on which I record each watch and details of the purchase and sale.
If I were to bring it up to date, which i really ought to, it would probably extend beyond 200 entries.

I also have a spreadsheet (a little sad possibly) and need to create some sort of dashboard to only consider watches I still have while still keeping records of all the watches I've ever bought and sold...!!!!
