Other than watches, what else do you collect?
Other than watches, what else do you collect?

How would you rate your passion of collecting watches on a scale of 10 vs other things that you collect?

- Bourbon (but thinking of selling a bunch off, I won't ever drink it all and it's become a grind
due to it's current popularity.)
- Guns
- Cars

I collect, venue specific, limited edition screen print concert posters from all the Dave Matthews and and Pearl Jam concerts i have been to. Im up to about 50 at the moment.

I rate my passion for watch collecting much higher though. The screen prints, i started more than 15 years ago, but i figure once i started i might as well have a full set. Its more of a habit now more than anything as its not like I'm going to put them all up in the house or anything.

My most recent:

Same here. I enjoy travel (and food), but I don't have a lot of stuff besides necessities like clothing and shoes
