It’s your watch, what matters is you like and enjoy it. Wear it in good health.

commented on State of the watches collection ·

Very nice collection! I reduced my collection from 20 to 15, and am looking to sell another 2 more; 10-12 is a good number to aim for. :)

commented on The road ahead ·

I was on the same path, but I have taken a conscious effort take stock of my collection and control how I approach new purchases. I tell myself now that I should only buy one new watch every 18 months and all my purchases should be cash only, no credit cards allowed. I find myself taking more enjoyment from what I have and have a clearer idea of what I really like and curb my impulses.

commented on Should I? ·

I would wait. Borrowing from “future you” is a likely path to regret. When “present you” can afford the watch (assuming you still like it then), that little bit more discount won’t matter.

commented on Do people that cant get a Rolex REALLY migrate to other brands? ·

I started my watch collecting journey wanting a Rolex (Air King drew my fancy), and due to the snobbery of ADs, I bought a Cartier Santos instead. Glad things turned out the way they did.

commented on Tudor Ranger Purchase Strategy ·

Outside of Rolex and Patek, I think it’s always cheaper to buy from grey market.

commented on Waiting Game ·

I had the opportunity to buy an Explorer, I went for the Ranger instead.
