Jeebus it’s only February and I’ve already bought 4 watches

Here I was thinking oh 2024 would be the year I’m gonna settle down on watch buying. Well that hasn’t happened yet. It’s only February 22nd 2024 and I’ve already bought 4 watches. I have two incoming nothing too crazy or expensive just watches I liked and the prices were good. I’ll do a group photo with all four once the other two arrive. How many watches have you bought so far in 2024.

Shockingly, only one so far. I'm still on the fence about the #zelos Eagle 2. I'm saving up to get some expensive pieces, though, so it's not necessarily a bad thing.

I already shot my 3 for the year! 2025 will not get here soon enough lmao!

I hear yea hang in there

·

So… I counted I am at 6 but also traded out 5 watches. Can we just count it as 1? 😅😆

·

One so far.

2nd target acquired.

Just being patient (for once).

·

I've bought 4 so far this year, but... they were all in the plan to buy and I also let go of 5 so far this year. So I feel like that should count as a -1! 😂

That said, a totally unplanned Baby G is calling my name. Not sure how much longer I can resist... Send help. 😏

·

None so far.. been tempted a few times... Not too much regret.

·

Man, I can’t wait to see what you got. I have bought 3, I sold 12 though, so with the proceeds from the 12 I bought 2, and 1 from out of pocket (so to speak)

I posted two so far, the other two I bought with the previous two aren’t all that expensive. Probably around $250 total? But it’s not the cost that matters it’s the fact I like them.

·

Zero watches in the past 13 months. I'm saving up for something bigger than anything in my current collection.

·

I’ve gotten two… only planning for MAYBE one more. Famous last words

·

I've bought 4, but sent 1 back. I'm waiting for number 4 right now. Says it should be here by the 29th

Can’t wait to see what you got.

2 … for now 😅

·

By the 6th week of this year I had bought 5 watches already. To be fair, I sold 7 watches in that time. My other desires right now are more than I can spend so they are put on hold for now.

·

Zero! Zero last year too!

·

Zero, kind of! 4 is fine and fun. don’t feel bad, u maybe still spent way less than many of us junkies

I’ve 2 arriving from last year.:

this crazy happy fellow arrived 2 weeks ago

Image

And something else nutty coming in March!

Also … browsing a lot lately and that’s always dangerous 😂

Oooo that Sinn and the Baltic don’t count! 🤩

·

I bought 1 a week for January. Then I took a breathe sold most of my 15 collection. And now all i good in the world 😂

·

Bought 2, sold 2, bought another 2 and it's just February, sometimes it's concerning 🥴

·

One so far, I’ve got a jet star coming in the mail in the next week or so

That is an unreal piece, you will be mesmerized by the second hand

·

Two so far, but temptation is always 'round the corner.

·

I managed to accidentally buy 5. It kind of freaked me out and I hope I can be a bit less impulsive. Though 3 of them I had been thinking about for a while. The other 2 were vintage watches I ran across on eBay and the prices were so good I couldn’t say no. Anyway, no more for a while.

·

One arrived in pieces between Christmas and now. It was more of an experiment and cost me just over $100.

That’s the hope, I’ve never even owned a 4hz watch so this should look really nice.

·

None and planning on staying that way 😎

Oh that Sinn…..

Thanks!

Sinn-ful isn't it 😉

I'm also going to order a bracelet for it when it comes in...the green and black straps are great, but the option to have it on a bracelet is a must.
