I mostly agree with you, but I think the only secret here is obsession: if as a collector or a dealer you want to shop for "good" watches, you have to put in the hours (watching ebay, trawling auctions, whatever your channels are). There are no shortcuts, so I don't feel very threatened when I share something, perhaps wrongly. If somebody wants to be as good (as bad?) as me, he will have to spend countless hours in the workshop dismantling and repairing, and in front of a PC in the evening, on Sundays, etc.
