Very good and very TRUE. I wish I would have purchased one or two great watches instead of buying all those that I have since sold. But then again I learned alot about watches thru them.

I think that exceptional value for #19 can be all about personal preference (how individual justify it). After all we buy for ourself, not for others hand6.gif. My two cents. happy1.gif

SO VERY TRUE!!

This has to be the most amazing collection of home truths when it comes to collecting watches! I agree with EVERY ONE of them!

Clearly only someone with significant experience in collecting watches with passion could have thought those through!

Well Done! Thumbsup3.gif

Very Well Written!!
