jeffw69 0 Posted March 24, 2013 Out of curiosity Jeff, how many reps. do you think you purchased before deciding enough is enough? Well, I never went through that phase of buying cheapies like Silix specials or even any of the $100 21J versions. I worked through a couple of versions of the AP Diver, now happy with my V3. I went through a DSSD phase, bought a few versions, had one from Sead relumed and waterproofed by Achris, ultimately buying the Gen. My PAM phase luckily was restricted to submersible types, but I did venture into a 127, 111, and a boutique edition. I think I have 8 PAMs right now. Then there are AP ROOs, which I have 4 and will be 5 with the 57th St edition. Those are pricey to begin with, thn ll the custom hornbacks, it adds up. I probably have around 40 right now, including 4 gens. I have given away 6, only sold 4 and broke 1 (JLC diver). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
conx 0 Posted March 24, 2013 NEWSLASH: There isn't a crackdown in China, they are all going into liquidation now that Jeff, their main revenue stream, is done buying reps. Don't blame the Government or the rights holders, blame Jeff ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
slaughterer 0 Posted March 24, 2013 Looking through his collection notes, I am at about the same level as jeffw s mania (only no DSSD, and I am luming and assembling DIY homage 3646s at my home watch shop). When you get this far, I find it easy to accept you might give it all up: what else is left? Maybe it is time to hit the gym, drink some wine, buy some hi-end audio, re-design the house, spend some time with the kids, write a novel, go to California, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hmmm, drink wine----check. Hi-endAudio---check Just remodeled basement ino a home theater---check Time with the kids----they are now teenagers and don't want to spend time with Dad. Write a novel----a possibility. Go to California-----another possibility, I have to see when Luthier is available. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
