In that case maybe I am not a collector…?

Bob, I like your approach – all watches should be used and hopefully never leave your watch box.

I have the same mindset, all my watches I use and I never get a watch in purpose of speculation.

Of course, some gets more wrist time then others…

But!

I have been letting go of a few.

One out of love for a friend, I had two of a discontinued watch and he really wanted that model (Master Reveil).

Very recently I had to give up couple out of necessity to be able to go for a Grail…

Very bitter, but also very sweet when the Grail arrived!

So, my question – am I a collector?

And if I am not – what am I?

Because when people see my watch box the normal reaction is: you are a collector.

Maybe this becomes to philosophic topic, but I think it’s very interesting to hear other “watch nuts” how they define themselves to others.

Personally I use to say I am a crazy watch enthusiast!

That’s for sharing your thoughts!

Best
