My watch collecting philosophy

[@dasc0yne]

"Just be patient." That sounds great until the latest Kurono Tokyo run drops at 6am.

What’s so special about their watches ??

[@LuckyLuchReyes]

I feel this, a lot of great points throughout the vid! Especially about patience & pressure. I try not to repeat styles or brands in my collection so I'm able to have multiple watches and variety @ the same time. I think it's completely fair to have boundaries and limits while simultaneously having fun and expressing yourself (while not breaking the bank). Happy Collecting :)!!!

thank you!

Love your GS also known as a G-Shock, Seiko dress... oh that's GS too... ok, and surprisingly San Martin. The rest don't speak to me at all. Really enjoyed this long speak vid. I'm a three watch guy... digital, quartz and auto. Done.

Very good advice and so realistically..Thank you

This is philosophical.

I just texted my friend that I love watches

Great video, great collection. Where did you get the strap on your sbgx061?

[@blakslee720]

@@_guillermo I think it's a shell cordovan from Holben

So the San Martin is not considered a diver? Because it sure does look like one, but I also understand if the homage brand doesn't give the same confidence in specs as something like a Seiko.

[@blakslee720]

@@tomasrobertson2548 I have no clue what the specs are, but you’re right, I suppose it is. Diver is just not the mindset in which I bought the watch and not what I gravitate towards when I’m spending a day on the water

SM bezel is not a timing bezel, it’s a 24 hour bezel for the GMT function, so a GMT watch.

Hey buddy so have you tried flipping watches ? since you’ve been doing this for long time I’m sure you have a good idea when you see a good deal on something

[@blakslee720]

@@dartagnan1954 I've never sought something out or bought something with the intention of flipping it. If I get a good deal, it's usually for a reason that would limit any profit on the back end, ESPECIALLY factoring in eBay/chrono24's cut of the sale. And that's not really where my interest lies. Were I to make money in the watch industry, I'd much rather work at Wempe, WOS or Teddy's store, somewhere with a lot of brands and I could guide/talk to people and match them up with the right piece.
