I thought this board is for the "discriminating" watch collector. The reason why I'm going into watch collecting is not to collect common names you can buy at the local Sam's or Costcos but from unique, uncommon destinations like Marc's IW or Berg's Orsa. I've been wearing Seikos (one at a time, not a collection) for the longest time and never really realized the wider array of choices out there until recently. In short, I can't see myself buying an Invicta just because it's cheap. And I can't see myself buying a Rolex because it's expensive. In fact, I can't see myself buying another Seiko (unless of course it's the 600M Marinemaster). All are widely available. It's all about being proud of wearing your watch, no matter what the price -- a watch that reflects who you are as an individual -- and that to me is wearing a UNIQUE watch. People see you wear a Seiko, Invicta, and Rolex and they make a judgement about you. From now on, I'll keep them guessing!
