CaptainFantastic 510 Posted September 7 I started at this hobby in about 2010 with the hopes of getting a decent Breitling rep. I did, and then another, then I found this place, the after years of posting, trading, lurking, posting some more and lurking some more, I’m up at about 77 pieces. There’s a bunch that should leave, but what’s the fun in that? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I dont like having more than 3 reps at a time. It's also easier to get over rep watches as opposed to gen ones. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I pointed out that I don't go to bars. I don't smoke, very rarely drink, don't hang out with friends constantly, don't do drugs, and only have a few hobbies. I build model kits, I collect watches, diecast race cars and Transformers. She hasn't bugged me about it since. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mjh2k4 0 Posted September 15 I started out getting reps for my gens. Now it’s gone the other way and I’m getting about 2-3 reps a month. I’m finding the various factories, movements, etc to be actually more interesting than the gen marketplace! I live in the UK and I can’t say I’ve ever had anyone eye me up to take a watch, but I am not in a big city or anything! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
