I am at 6. Being a smartass

·

That cycle back to Seiko seems real 😂 I’d broaden that out to an acknowledgment and appreciation of the value of more affordable watches and micros as well even after having experienced watches at far higher price points.

·

I’m in the denial phase…not listed. Gone off script 😁😉

·

At four now and forever

·

I'm too old and think it's pretty accurate itself to argue against

·

I skipped 2-7 and went straight to 8. Hopefully 11 is a long time away.

·

You always come full circle before the end, enter Seiko!

·

I'm at phase 7!

·

Some of us have never stopped buying Seiko…gulp

·

Pretty accurate chart. Love it! 😂

Agreed! With NH movements!

Seen it before, still hilarious! 😂

Currently at 8

Man this is only the 8th time seeing this since January on WC alone, and the 1000th time ever!

Good one. There’s also a U shaped one for Rolex. The novice starts off wanting Rolex, then they become more educated and Rolex go down in their estimation. At the bottom of the U they think only the uneducated like Rolex. As their journey goes on they start to appreciate Rolex again as they now understand they make damn good watches. Up they go on that U bend graph 😁

*of course some people might keep going down and hate them more and more 😫

I skipped straight to number 8 and then bought a load of homages and some microbrands 😜

Cars. Watches. Same thing.

Tell me about it, I got one of these in the last month - could cripple me but you never know if you never go

10. Hope 11 is far far far away. 😂

Lol, I am squarely & unapologetically at stage 2 currently. Modelling my whole personality after a cheesy Ryan Gosling TAG advertisement is my life now, send help

Between 3-4, but still without a Seiko! 😅

However I would like to get a baby Alpinist and a King Seiko…sooner or later 🧐

King Seiko is a Japan-only line no?

You are either a revolutionary who's ahead of the curb or a case of arrested development according to this

I think 1-8-9-10 is healthy.

·

Man, I feel like I'm between 8 - 9. Not willing to play the games for the pieces I want and feel like I've seen most things that excite me. Wondering how close I am to the much talked about 'exit'?!?!

If you haven't tried king Seiko you haven't even lived life itself

·

According to this, I'm not a collector.

Frickin hilarious brilliant

·

Ha ha brilliant 👍

Started with Seiko, ended with Grand Seiko... some where between 8-10 :)
