Post subject: | How sick are you?! |
I recently compiled a list of all the past 'decent' watches that I've owned, and the amount is quite shocking. Without going into cost, it is plain to see that I have a bit of a sickness for watch collecting, and most of them hardly got any wear. The following is the list of previous watches up 'til now, and you can see the pattern: Chronographs and more chronographs! ![]() Would be interested to see other collectors habits and patterns! *OMEGA Speedmaster MoonWatch SpeedMaster Solar Impulse *BREITLING Navitimer Fighter black Navitimer A23322 black Navitimer 50th Anniv. silver Navitimer 50th Anniv.

Yes, you are sick and so am I and so are most of us in this and other forums. There is no cure, only temporary relief - another watch. |

I've flipped a fair old few over the years myself. I'll need to sit down and think of the list, but I reckon it's got to be in the 30's. |

Holy cow. The more time I spend here the more convinced I become that I must be the poor guy in the group (and I live a comfortable life). Man that's a lot of watches. |
