Cogwatch's Top 10 (Plus a WHOLE BUNCH of others....Pic Heavy to say the least!!!!!!)

Recommended Posts

I am speechless...What an awesome collection and many of them made out of my own taste...But I am terrified to see where this addict can lead to...

 

Stupid question from a rookie: how long did it took to get all those beauties together ?

And even more nasty question: you are still married...? :gagged:

 

About 2.5 years to put it together (and still putting it together, one just came in today). And yep, still married. My wife likes really expensive purses. I get her one of those purses and I'm good to go on watches for quite a while :lol:

I am loving the shape of that Alpina. I see it's a quartz - is it a microstepper?

Great collection Cog. ....gives new inspiration. I've got work to do. I'm at about 100 so I'll be on a buying frenzy soon.

Actually, the Alpina is an automatic. Says so right on the dial :rofl:

I searched for Alpina Nightlife, not realising there were quartz and automatic versions ....

 

I win the n00b award today :D

That did make me laugh out loud :lol:

 

One thing about that Alpina is the Profsteve crystal really made a difference (by Profsteve crystal I mean I sent him the original Alpina crystal and he did the coating on that crystal in one of his coating batches). The cost was about $120 if I recall, and I can tell you that the difference it made on an already really nice watch and taking it to the next level was 1000% worth the money.

Rep or gen handbags? What does she like? Curious as my wife likes them but I haven't got her a rep. I hit the coach or Dooney and Bourke when the local outlet mall has sales. Typically save well over 50% off retail.

Oh, my wife is gen only I'm afraid. I've tried to steer her in the rep direction but zero progress. She's mid-high class Chinese and they are really into brand status symbols and the real thing is the only option. As far as what she likes, ouch is all I can say. Let's just say among LV, Prada, and Chanel, she also has 2 bags that the brand starts with an H and the bag starts with a B. But she's 18 years younger than me, hot, and a great wife, so I tend to give her what she wants :) And as I said, one bag for her, and I'm good to go on buying watches, especially reps, for quite a while :lol:

Cool. I'm not sure I would get her a rep, just curious. As bags go the ones I get her are inexpensive compared to what you're buying...

Made her to write to our sellers (or discover Chinese forums where they have cheaper same quality reps) and go to 200 pieces :D

Nice collection. I like that you have a balance of reps and gens. This is way too many watches though bro!

Thanks. Yeah, I'm about to thin it out a bit. Maybe get it down to about 100 :)

No so much a big clear out all at once. Probably just 1 or 2 at a time.......

I'm not that good in math, but 150-100 is not 1 or 2!

 

Come on! Give it a go. You can buy your wife a new bag then ;)

Haha. But really, it will be limited by my time to take some good pics and do a write up for each one. And time is something I don't have much of right now.

 

As far as a new bag for the wife. The money for the watches I haven't sold yet is already spent. His and hers gen watches for 10th Anniversary gifts to each other - some pretty nice ones. Pics of those coming soon :)

Do it just before CNY and you can become the de facto world dealer in reps.

Stunning collection mate! Any chance you post pics of another 2 boxes? I would really like to see what else do you have in collection (or better to say what you don't have :lol: ).
