...but that’s as far as an ‘investment’ watches are for me. Every penny I’ve ever made on a watch has just gone back into other watches, and in some cases has enabled me to afford watches I couldn’t otherwise afford or be justified in spending. E.g I have a rose gold Lange because 10 years before I happened to buy a vintage 1675 GMT. If I was simply just spending income, I wouldn’t be able to buy a Lange.
I find the constant talk of ‘flipping’ all of these SS steel sports watches, and the number of people talking about ‘trading’ watches like stocks to be really tiresome.
That being said, I sometimes wish I could get in a time machine and head back to 2013 and tell myself not to sell my 6265 Big Red and FPJ CB, as I’d have a 5970 by now!
