I’ve loved watches since I was little and always bought various digital watches as a kid and later quartz mechanical ones.
I joined TRF nearly 7 years ago with a couple of vintage pieces and tt Submariner and what changes there’s been; both in the market place and my feelings towards watches I own.
Firstly I’m glad about all the watches I’ve owned and sold and have no regrets. The most underwhelming piece was a 16610 and if I could have one of them back it would be a 1665 (which got too valuable to wear comfortably).
Just prior to the first lockdown, my last Rolex went to fund a late tritium Speedmaster and during those lockdowns, I really started to look at my small collection. Out went a Panerai 233 to fund a watch I lusted after in the 90s; a Franck Muller Master Calendar, and then a Seamaster 300 for an early Panerai Base as I missed having a Panerai, but not the complications. The Speedmaster is staying!
So, here, finally I feel I’ve got it covered (for now); Dress, Vintage, Daily. There’s also a couple of G-Shocks for gardening/car washing.
