That's not the first time that's been said, Ashley. I get comments like that on Instagram all the time...

 

Cufflinks - all sorts, really. But a lot from Coronation and Jubilee years

 

Well since I am new to the forum, I thought I would comment. I collect lots of different things, but besides fishing tackle (salt water stuff), I also collect lots of cigars. I have over 2,000. I have my favorites, and also many manufactures release limited editions. Like wine, with aging they usually get better. Unfortunately (or fortunately) most of my cigars will go up in smoke eventually, so they are not a good investment. I also like collecting whiskey and whisky. Another one that seams to disappear.

 

Nice PRS!

 

I have a very small collection of key date, uncirculated (MS = mint state), certified (PCGS & NGC) U.S. coins.

My neighbour is from Cuba, he keeps promising me one of his cigars but I am still waiting in hope.

 

They're about 3-4 inches high. I use my best guess to measure drinks.

 

Dysfunctional PW movements.

 

Stock 2002 Touring V8..... very low double digit numbers imported to US from my research, like under 20.

This one had 15K miles when I bought it in 2010. Had been looking for 6 years.

Summer car from the Hamptons. From the records, some years only 4-500 miles were put on the vehicle, but a oil change and filter performed each year.

I've forgotten how many scribbled notes I've found under the wipers from people wanting to buy it. 20-30 a year I guess. Only one I've seen in my travels around Texas and the SW, and the first one my dealer service manager had seen, also.

55K miles now. Weekend only and road trips.

 

Beautiful car.

 

Guns, Watches Wines Whiskeys Cars & Some More Here is one of my Mercedes... 280SEL W108 Original 48K Miles & a Les Baer Custom

 

Nice Baer! I used to have Grizzly 45 Win Mag, an animal, but very accurate.

 

Thanks, Grizzly 45 a beast

 

Vintage test equipment. Just love the look of the old switches and gauges

 

Very nice 108!

 

Even with English turned up to 86, I don't understand that thing. And I vaguely do remember tube testers in stores.

 

Music! And seem to pick up too many cameras... but then again I make music and films so that's hardly a surprise

 

Cultural Folk Art.................in the form of boots by both contemporary and vintage custom bootmakers.

These are contemporary and the bootmaker's (Pascal from Hollywood Riff Raff) pictures show them well.

Hand Tooled with "old school " spade shaped, snipped-toe sole. His 'omage to Clint Eastwood's movie, "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly", Tuco in particular.







Yes, I wear them

 

You mean this?

 

I have been AWOL busy with a project but now I am back! A treat to catch this interesting thread to see what other members collect other than watches. By nature a pack rat, I do have a small collection of drafting pencils because of my profession, well sort of. Another thing that I have multiples of are waxed jackets, I guess you can say that my love of patina on watches overflow onto clothing.


Here are some of the ones that I am using at the moment. Almost like lightsabers
