Danielsyoga's original post tackles a perennial debate within the luxury watch community: what truly defines a 'real' collector? By challenging the notion that ownership of specific Rolex sports models or Patek Philippe timepieces is the sole arbiter of horological passion, danielsyoga invites readers to consider a broader, more inclusive perspective on watch enthusiasm. This discussion highlights the evolving landscape of watch collecting, where genuine interest often transcends brand prestige and market trends.



a rant , NOT AT YOU!!!!!!!!!!
on a certain utube channel, it was agreed by a certain elite
that”you, us , whoever , ARE not real unless one  owns  a SPORTS ROLEX, OPs dont count 
so to me , all the front line workers battling THE Pandemic, nurses, doctors , patients, people without jobs,
students , actors theatre , arts , librarians , IT people, journalists      are bums because they dont own Patek or Rolex ?
some dont even collect watches or care to 
.................

any way of handling theses ELITE these people  ????

As for the original post, it’s a circus and there are a lot of clowns around. That’s just watch collecting and (yes this is a subset of it) the look at me posturing that some times comes with it.
