How have you been "Savvi" w/your collection or in this hobby??

Wanting to hear your creative ideas, along with your experiences as a watch enthusiast!

I've been a watch enthusiast since 1990 and am lucky enough to have obtained a luxury piece or 2 along the way. Am not flush with money so my fine watch collection will never go beyond 1-3 pieces. However, I still want to "play the game" as I acquire/rotate and trade. I typically hold on to a piece anywhere from 5-10 yrs. but have now (I think/hope) found 1 keeper among my current 2.

* I think Savvi Formal wear is on to something...they know prom/weddings are special occasions but many don't hold onto that tux. Rental car Co's./Car manufacturers same thing...have used them for necessity or Saturday play time. I've borrowed/loaned watches to/from a relative for us to have a new/fun experience. Also, have had my AD take pics of dream watches on my wrist. I'd be thrilled to rent a Rolex... seriously...just kidding.

** Please share ways you have kept your WIS passion going, along with any "what if...or coulda, woulda, shoulda stories".

It appears the luxury watch rental is a real thing. One company targets my Facebook feed and I see their advertisements daily. It actually seems quite expensive. I’d rather just purchase them the old fashioned way. Especially since they essentially don’t lose value. I get the concept and it’s probably a fun thing to do.

So...that question starting the thread flopped like a pancake! Lol
How about..."I'm a watch geek but bank acct. isn't loaded. Have any advice or examples of things you've done to prolong interest in this hobby"?
