Well, new collectors always think they know exactly what they like in the beginning. Then you read more, see more, learn more etc. It's a natural (and fun !) process. I can assure you this will happen to you too. It is exactly what is cool about this crazy hobby.

You do not have to be a serious client to visit their boutiques, and you will be treated better there walking in off the street, than you would at a Rolex dealer....Try it sometime.
