I am a watch geek WHO is partial to vintage watches ... I also run into others who rattle off their collection ROLEX, JLC, OMEGA, etc etc etc ... ALL MODERN pieces ... and several comments like this from several ppl ...  

Laugh it off ...

Don't worry what others think; we can't easily discern humor delivered via the web, and if it's not meant to be funny, then who cares. Cheers, Cazalea ...

. . . but not here; civility is a given. 😌

Not in this forum. We are all here to share, learn and enjoy.

You don’t collect for someone else, do you.

“Do You”, as some colloquially say. That is a lovely Seamaster. What is the case made of? It looks Copper in the photo. Is it Bronze? Gold?

Hater’s gonna hate. Collect what you love and ignore those that criticize.

Shake it off and remember, classics get respect for the ages, fads don't!

I actually fine vintage pieces to be both more exclusive, while also being more approachable

Think about it... how many examples of that particular Seamaster are there in the world in that condition? Not many... you have a gem +++

You are among friends who enjoy all aspects of horology Keep posting

A watch of class and individualism. Not sure it can reflect better than that

I would be very happy to stick to this version. ;)

Don’t look to others for validation

or let others invalidate what pleases you. 😇

Surprising that such stupid comments affect you. I don't bother at all about the comments I get on my collection. My tastes are very particular, and I have watches with an horological interest

e.g. micro-rotor movement, bumper movement, etc. for which the watches are sometimes not as nice as one would expect, but the pleasure they provide is very personal and selfish ! ;-)

I like it is the best & only way to go :)

Be it vintage, neo vintage or brand new. Take the road less travelled & enjoy the journey, if people enjoy it great - if not it's no skin off your nose. Cheers JML Ps cool Omega
