Treat that as a useful lesson on how paltry the prize is when winning that pursuit.

“You’ll never actually own a Rolex/Patek Philippe, you’ll merely look at an exhibition only model in the display case.”

Can't see any attractivity in the Nomos collection and don't get why they enjoy so much appreciation.

I think I've tried to ask you this before, but what do you actually like/wear?

This thread is full of posts of mine where you can see what I like. If you want to see what I wear, you can check the other horological thread.

@Ebitdaddy is that your Daniel Roth for sale on WUS? You are the patron saint of koppers.

I tried looking in this thread, but at least the first dozen or so were mostly you crapping on other watches (a lot of it deserving). Thanks for pointing me to the other thread though. Did a bit of glancing through and mostly saw you post pics of vintage adjacent releases or reissues that you thought were interesting and your Tudor day-date. You also posted a bit of an oddball Sinn that you have in this thread. From this thread, I can see that you also like some more classical time-only watches.

Couldn't ascertain what else you might have, but that helps me have a better understanding. Though I am a bit surprised that with some of the Junghans pieces you've posted liking that you find Nomos to be completely lacking in attraction.

Haha...the ol' take-an-already-drastically-overpriced-watch-and-double-the-price trick. Nice!

How about wearing it with a two piece matching tracksuit while shopping at Costco?

It's not New Jersey and I'm not 300 lbs, but a man can dream...

Man these Japanese sellers drive me nuts. Contacted them off c24, and they offer the exact same pricing. Makes no sense since there's no fee for them if they take my wire directly off c24. Sometimes they can be good, but it seriously feels like I have to email 6 or 7 dealers to find one that isn't a moron lol
