Great looking watch! Congrats on the milestone

Great combo. Which hobby came first, watch collecting or knife collecting?

commented on Is the emotional connection to watches real? ·

You’re not wrong, however, not being wrong doesn’t mean you’re right.

I have emotional attachments to some objects (some of them watches) but not all objects (or watches) if that makes sense.

As a parallel, consider happiness and sadness. They are not binary. Not being happy does not make one sad. Similarly, not being sad does not make one happy.

There is freedom and flexibility to enjoy on your level at your pace if you embrace the inbetween.

Thanks!

It would be great to see this chart by volume in unit vs CHF.

E.g., if Rolex did 30.3% of 26,700,000,000 CHF sales with 1,240,000 units at an average mrsp of 6,524 CHF ($7,195 USD), what share of new wrists did a Rolex occupy in 2023?

Either way, sounds like they’re moving a lot of OPs and 36mm Datejusts
