Oh dear, is this the beginning of the end? Is this that moment that time flies…away. Has the time come for me to abandon this unholy hobby? No, it’s not the point at which I give up on my watch journey and put all my watches on eBay for \u00a31 each, although I’m sure you wish it was. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

It all started when I did the state of the collection videos on youtube. They’ve been viewed a few dozen times which is lovely, but what isn’t lovely is the fact that it brought forth a serious realisation…51 watches might be too many. And I also though that quantity was more important than quality – how things change. How wise I now am. I know, it took long enough. Now if they were assets, all worth tens of thousands of Great British Pounds, and appreciating, then maybe it wouldn’t be too many. But as it stood, I realised I had watches that I would likely never wear again – and that didn’t sit right. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
