I was going to agree with this, but then remembered, I've got the next stage of addiction to 'serial flipper' which is 'serial buyer who can't face parting with any of them'. So it can't be that much of an anticlimax, can it?
Of course, like all addicts at this stage, I'm always considering chopping in the lot for that 'special one' or 'grail' or whatever other fantasy of owning only one watch is currently. But it never happens or will ever happen. It's like the Great Rationalisation of knowing that we can always get most of our money back by reselling the collection we can't really bear the idea of losing even one from……..
Far and away the worst part of the obsession is getting the idea of the next desirable beast and starting the research when suddenly, as if by magic, something really lovely and usually beautifully photographed and completely different from the desirable beast turns up on SC. Which adds another hole to the pocket and watch to the collection without diminishing the desire for the one being researched.
GRRRR!
Ps: Anyone got a half decent display box for sale?? My latest one's nearly full.
