greg_r 84 Posted March 28, 2010 Now i need to buy a bloody decent camera to take pictures this watch thing is gonna get expensive me thinks Trust me, it could be worse. Two years ago I joined a forum because I'd been out of rep collecting for a few years and wanted to see what the current situation was. So now not only am I broke from buying watches, but I have no time to do anything else because I ended up as the admin of the board I joined...

Luthier 1 Posted March 28, 2010 It also has some positive sides. You start to collect watches, then you buy better camera to shoot better pictures, then you buy an Armani suit, to compliment the watches, and that will lead you to buy a new Mercedes or BMW, because a man with Vacheron on the wrist wouldn't drive Civic, and then you'll look on your missuse more critical, maybe it also should be replaces with young and fashionable asian chick, etc, etc, etc... So, at the end your life is improved, and your status changed to VIP, and you'll live with no regrets. But enough about me, everyone started it from cheap Rolex DD from Canal Street or Bangkok Sukhumvit or Guangzhou watch store... Besides... you'll get tons of great friends from around the World, called "RWG freaks". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
