As we approach the end of 2023, I'm forming my intentions for 2024.
I joined this forum 10 years ago, looking for some advice on buying a 'proper watch.' My first purchase was one of Eddie's finest, a Speedbird II. Over the past 10 years I have bought, tried and sold exactly 75 watches.
I currently have 11, with another on the way (purchased this year but it will arrive in 24) and two more up for sale.
I think I've ended up with some great watches that suit me and my lifestyle. To find your princess you have to kiss a few frogs. Some I have loved, lost and think about from time to time but I'm pretty happy with my current collection.
I'm still tempted to buy 'just one more watch' - maybe going full circle and getting something else from Timefactors, like a Smiths Military or a Speedbird III.
However my intention is not to buy anything in 2024. I have unsubscribed from all watch sales newsletters. I will try not to browse Sales Corner.
Is anyone else intending to join the abstinence club in 2024?
