    Should I sell off my suit and shoe collection to fund my watch obsession?

    The Mark XVIII? That’s a great looking watch, and was high up on my list before narrowing down to the two in the op... may still check that one out as I haven’t seen any of these in person yet.

    Should I sell off my suit and shoe collection to fund my watch obsession?

    Well the boots sold surprisingly fast, I might have underpriced them /sigh... Guess I will know if I see them on the Bay in a week or two. Now on to the hard part of selling the rest and saving up little by little!

    Should I sell off my suit and shoe collection to fund my watch obsession?

    Well you’re in luck because the boots are now up. As for hi-beat, I love them. But the frequency and cost of service is a deal breaker for me. The Spring Drive by definition has much less friction and should last considerably longer between services, despite Seiko recommendations...

    Should I sell off my suit and shoe collection to fund my watch obsession?

    True, but I rarely wear most of what I’m selling, so I see it as a means of accelerating my purchase to some degree. And some of what I’m selling just doesn’t fit well.

    Well I’ve decided to start selling!

    Should I sell off my suit and shoe collection to fund my watch obsession?

    I think more than a "few" hundred, unless the used shoe market is in even worse shape than I thought!

    Should I sell off my suit and shoe collection to fund my watch obsession?

    Thanks. The boots are 8D on the Grant last. I should have sized up to the 8.5 so they fit me a bit too snug for regular use and as such they are in mint condition! Which Grand Seiko models would you say are better? In terms of performance, aesthetic, resale value? If I went the Grand Seiko...

    Should I sell off my suit and shoe collection to fund my watch obsession?

    And I guess the nice thing about the watch is that if you are careful in your selections, you can recoup a lot of cost down the road should you choose to sell it. In the case of the above models I wouldn't be buying either at MSRP, but on the grey market, which takes a lot of the resale risk...

    Should I sell off my suit and shoe collection to fund my watch obsession?

    Its bite is strong, and seeps in ever so subtly! I think the shoes route is a good start, and yes I agree that having some other spare funds would be nice, but alas I guess I should be content to save?

    Should I sell off my suit and shoe collection to fund my watch obsession?

    Well "never" is pretty strong. I can't say for sure I will have zero need for a SC or a suit at any point in the near future. But... I could still hang on to a gray BB suit and a pair of AEs.

    Should I sell off my suit and shoe collection to fund my watch obsession?

    Serious question! I am set on eventually purchasing a sort of "one-watch"; an Omega Seamaster seen below, or a Grand Seiko Spring Drive Snowflake, below that: I have some fairly nice shoes and suits that I rarely wear because I don't work in an office-job. Those include (all in mint...

    Poor man's watch thread

    Here is another contender below, same movement ETA 2897, and still under $600... thoughts? I will put all 3 below: This VSA does not have a screw-down crown which kind of stinks (Mido watches have the screw-down crown)
