Is there such a thing as a watch that ends this madness?

Is Mrs @Mad Dog just putting thumb prints on all your watches

I like her.......

I do self ban WRUW for weeks at a time to save funds 🤦

Funny I have found my end of line diver and I was a diver watch guy way before vintage watches. Had so many for the last 20 years and the 1000m Certina DS-3 reissue is it. How it wears on the wrist more than anything

^^^He's lying! He just found 3 watches this morning he's gonna try to buy!

Face it gang we are a support group and hopefully it's more socially acceptable than many of the other vices that exist (it is certainly not cheaper): "My name is paedipod and I am a watchaholic......I have not bought a watch for 90 days (if you don't count trades and the one I bought for my wife)"


It may have been a wise squirrel, pre-meltdown, explained it as being like wine. There are good wines, great wines and always crap to drink. There is a market and the hunt is part of the excitement and once a specific bottle is acquired there is the choice of what to do....drink it or hoard it, or sell it onwards. There are price points and depending upon the day you might be happy with a $10 bottle, a $40 bottle or a $100 bottle. Beyond that the fineries of finishing, in-house manufacture etc. really come in to play as well as a sophistication of palate that many of us lack but aspire to. So, if you are a $40 bottle person, do you settle back happily with all the good ones in this range and drink them, or do you sell everything for that "grail" and put it in the safe/cellar never to see the light of day except for "pictures or it didn't happen".

Translating a little so there are not too many WTF posts: Kind of like @watchknut said above.....happy with the best of what I appreciate ($40 bottle = 5513), maybe not ready for the $500 bottle=DRSD.

Have a thoughtful weekend....I will be at work.

I am not lying! Those statements I made were alternative facts.

I first thought she was going for your gun. 😲
