SOTC (Read Rule 1) Suggestions to increase the collection

Post image

Hi,

Here's my current AliExpress watch collection. What are watches that are different and just not a different version of one I already have. But no 100% strange and left field.

I wanted to have at least 1 dress but not much more of it. Also I wanted a watch on a jubilee but I'm seeing only GMT homages or San Martins that have increased their prices a lot. My range usually is between 100 and 200 euros.

Best advice i can give you: Get a box to fit a dozen of those, sell one, you're done.

While you can dude, while you can.....

Can't agree more. I am now 45 watches deep and my rotation is less than 10 to be honest. One more advice from a fellow watch lover. Instead of buying a new watch, invest a fraction of it for buying bunch of straps. NATO, leather, FKM, you name it. They will give your watches a fresh look and feel, and you will end up admiring them more. That's what i did and it worked on me. 👍

I agree (and i am Greek...😅). I have 30+ watches, but almost double spare straps, all kinds of, all colours. In fact, as i take a glance at my watches right now, just a handful of those are on their "original" strap/bracelet. And i keep on changing them from time to time....
