Horofatigue

 
 By: Cozmopak : May 23rd, 2023-22:51
I've been experiencing a fair amount of horofatigue as of late. I'm not alone, as several of my watch collecting friends whom I keep in touch with are endorsing similar lackadaisical sentiments toward horology. Perhaps it's the constant deluge of new rele...  

It hit me hard!

Interestingly, I share your sentiments precisely…

I don’t know why, since nothing specific happened, although your considerations make a lot of sense. I’ve also seen similar past posts where it seems to be a phase. At this point, i’m more content to live vicariously through you all, but without pining af... 

Yes I agree!

The platinum version dial is too monotone for me personally

I wish it had a black dial + Pt case combo ... a la Dato ...

But on the bright side, WG keeps the price down! 😄

Haha!

Probably right

Oh yeah, ZEIT is just so freakin' cool ... what imagination, what conception, what execution!

Obviously, it has won many, many awards since its release, which shows that many people, including the experts who handle watches regularly, feel the same way. Also, an entire 1.5 hours episode of HSNY talk was dedicated to just this one model ... there i...  

Love this!

Not only is this Lange making me feel better but recently I have been hit as well with horofatigue!

Thought I don't yet have the same remedy you do, I hope it will pass soon! Cheers!

You might need to speak to Horogasm

Always good to have other hobbies/interests to maintain a healthy balance.

But I've come to accept that watches are in my blood and I'm incurable.🤒 Nice Zeitwerk, by the way!

Thank you!!

 
 By: Cozmopak : May 24th, 2023-03:57

The Zeitwerk is the perfect cure for watch ennui....

.... I find the Lange 1 and Datograph similarly therapeutic.

Agree!

For me it's less about boredom. It has more to do with having satisfied my desires.

I think the stage of life one is in has something to do with it.

Great shots!

I share your feelings and thoughts. And its interesting to see that others do so too. The reasons may of course vary on individual basis, but I do think that what you have stated about the industry and market have a significant influence.

Agree with you on a lot of counts …

Currently overthinking my collection and looking at which direction i will continue . The current market and application situation isn’t how i like it or how we now it a few years ago . Hope it will change for the good in the near future or if it will sta...
