I think value is subjective to the enjoyment you get out of wearing a particular watch.
I enjoy wearing a £100 g shock just as much as a £150k watch, it all depends on what I’m doing that day and what watch is appropriate for the occasion.
I personally believe there is too much emphasis on the point of a watch’s value and not the enjoyment a watch brings
We all base our collections on what is available to us from a financial point of view and a ability to aquire perspective. There is plenty of watches I have tried to aquire over the years that have not been able to afford but also that I have not been supplied by the AD.
There’s a point that if some of these watches did make it into my collection, then they would be ‘babied’ and kept in the safe.
The poll was for everyone, just for a bit of fun.
The value of a collection or the desire to build a collection from one of the holy trinity or best marketed watch manufactures isn’t about being in the top 1%, 2%,10% or even 50%. It was about picking one that you enjoy the models, complications, and history of the brands from the list.
And for what its worth, I also work very hard myself too! The lucky charms alias is just a nod to watches being lucky charms/trinkets kind of like the toys you used to get in the cereal boxes :)
Absolutely not. A £10 watch can be a prized possession just as much as a watch with a higher MSRP.
The value doesn’t make a watch more or less special to somebody that has it in their collection.
