Early on in this hobby, I read a post by an experienced watch collector that was something to the effect of
"A collection without curation is just an accumulation."
Curation is the process of choosing what (or more importantly, what not) to collect; it's the "underlying logic" of your collection. I find it more fun - more challenging, perhaps - to learn about and hunt for watches that fit within boundaries loosely set by that underlying logic. It also helps keep the spend in check.
Of course, sooner or later, you'll just end up like this anyway
