The essence of our hobby,the true spirit of it.
Never believe any watch fan telling you that its over,or that after that watch the collection will be complete or done.A watch collection is always in a slow movement.
As a relative newbie in the game,I tend to be over enthusiastic about almost anything (within criteria of course)new that comes out.The danger of a sensless accumulation is always present,the anxiety to have more and to add one more is constantly there.
At first you are influenced by others,opinions,general consensus etc,you cant have the serene tranquility that comes with time,knowledge and wisdom.
There is no way that you are going to take your time,you need to learn on your skin(wallet)before settling and developing your own taste.
Taste ,either you have it or not,but it developes with knowledge and it changes constantly,but at slower pace with time.
The desire to upgrade is a constant drive for me,unfortunately anyone make regretteble choices,but all in all I am fairly happy with my selection so far.One criteria I adopted at the very beginning was to never sell any watch just because they meant little achivements to me;well I must say that that criteria has failed,long way from being a flipper but I understand the necessity of letting something go,maybe regretfully,to make space for a bigger brother....
Anyway,a slow moving collection will make a great one one day,brick by brick,thats how anything solid should be built.
Great post.
