It all started off being Rational.. then get hooked up to watches and became emotional.. After buying some pieces I told myself I've got to pull the handbrake.. and it all became rational to me again..

I guess we all have to go thru these phases especially for those shallow pockets like me !  :Laughing_on_floor:

Firstly, I would buy the watch that most of people prefer (Rolex Sports model). This will be collection watch.
Then the rest will follow with watches for short term, trade, second collection or etc.

Some how or other, I always end up going towards diver watches even though I do no dive, nor go swimming.

I bought watch rationally before and I regret it. I also bought watches emotionally but never regret it. Of course I do not go out of my capability of owning the watch.

Does this happen to any of you before?

i think everyone here are emotional buyers  :Cheers:

Buying watches which are several thousand to 20-30K and upwards can't be rational..... :HammerHead:

It's all relative depending on an individual's passion & perspective.

For me, I would not bat an eyelid buying a vintage at a price higher than a new reference. To many, that's irrational.

Imagine the person who paid $17 mil for Paul Newman's "Paul Newman" ...  ;)

I buy watches that reflect my personality and things I do. I'm a tool watch kinda guy and my current lineups are Tudors only with a BB41 for dressier occasions.
