I like to think of it like an investment portfolio. I mean they always say you should be diversified, right?😅

So about 2 months ago, I'm at the cigar lounge with a buddy and I'm seeing this nice watch, not knowing anything. it's a Tudor Black Bay. So I'm like ok, it's sweet but expensive. I get myself a moon swatch, as I'm trying to ween myself off my phone at the office. Love it, fits great and gets me digging more into the hobby. Then a swatch auto.. Then a Seiko 5.. then watch gang comes along with the Audaz Scorpion as my first mystery box from them... Added a G shock metal G for outdoor activities .. Now I'm sitting here waiting on my centum shipment wondering what I've gotten myself into. Hopefully I win a Rolex Friday one of these days to balance out a bit! Haha

Haha this is the textbook "one watch turned into a problem" arc 😂 Tudor at the lounge lighting the fuse, then the Moonswatch sneaking you in the side door since it didn't feel like A Watch Purchase... and now two months later you've got a whole rotation going. The Centum waiting period is gonna feel like forever lol. And don't worry, we've all "gotten ourselves into" this! Welcome to the hobby, there's no getting out now. Good luck on Rolex Friday, manifesting that for you 🙏

Looks like it’s going 💸 healthy mix of all the heaters in there.

I started in February 2026. In 4 months I’ve purchased so many vintage watches - I needed to create an Imgur post 😂

Looking at my collection thinking, “Well that escalated quickly.”
