Cubic Hare 494 Posted January 7, 2015 A couple not in the box and a PAM in transit... I'll trim down the collection soon... I promise...... (yes dear) Cheers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Left Coast Guy 24 Posted January 7, 2015 Haha, I doubt it....if you're anything like me, they'll just keep coming in. I'm up to two boxes by now....and not small boxes mind you. I feel like it will settle down and I'll grow out of it at some point, but its been a year, and still not happening. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cogwatch 1 Posted January 7, 2015 Looks good so far!! I didn't start trimming things down until I got to 100+. And even after starting to trim down and sticking with a one in one out strategy, it's so much faster and easier to buy than it is to sell that the ins seem to stay 5 or 6 ahead of the outs Good luck with your own trimming down attemp. But in the meantime, I'd buy a bigger box . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thenoon 0 Posted January 7, 2015 When I was starting I got up to about 25 reps then realised what I liked and trimmed it down over time to what I have now, so I now have about 7-8 reps and a few gens and I keep them all in a glass fronted solid oak display cabinet , most with their presentation boxes for show :-) Not a great pic but you get the idea...... Current collection is : Gen Oris TT Small Seconds Silver/Orange Gen Oris TT Small Seconds Blue Gen Oris TT Small Seconds Grey and Black Titanium Gen Hamilton Jazzmaster Seaview Gen Armani Rep Tag Aquaracer 500m Chrono Rep PAM 111 Rep Omega CRPO Pumpkin Rep Omega CRPO Black Rep Breitling SuperAvenger Blacksteel Rep Tag Aquaracer Ceramic Rep Omega PO Chrono Rep Rolex DSSD , Kenny modded Rep IWC BP Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

machiavegli 6 Posted January 7, 2015 Off to a good start! For a little variety you might want one with NO complications and a clean dial... Just the time. And if the IWC isn't on gen alligator, think about it, there's no comparison. @cogwach ... You're a maniac. Wow. -Mach Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

20Footer 0 Posted January 7, 2015 That is the most beautiful and at the same time scary thing i have seen. The beauty part is obvious. The scary is i thought i could control this watch "problem" i have. Now i see im doomed! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
porkman65 0 Posted January 7, 2015 Nice gens and great to display them!!At the moment I don't know how many watches I have, but probably around 150. 150! Can we see your box please? I think I have around 40 watches and was starting to think it was getting rather silly. Now that I can see I'm not the only nutcase I realise that it will be perfectly fine for me to continue building my collection as there are still so many watches that I NEED to own! Another watch box is on its way as we speak. Thank you for making me feel normal! Matt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
