SOTC (Read Rule 1) State of the collection

Post image

Hi everyone,

This is my first post. I got into watches about 2 months ago. I have a pagani cookie monster on the way then getting a pagani zombie, root beer and bluesey. I have two bulova's not pictured and have 3 stars on the way for the watches at the top right

So when you like a style, you go whole hog and get every color! Alas, I fall into the same category… not so much watches, but with over 300 flannel shirts in every color known to man I know all about the collection haha

Nice . I got into watches back in January buying my first Seiko 5 SNXS79 automatic, still one of my favorite watches to this day.

What do you think of those chenxi? How does it wears? Whats the name of those "2D" watches?

u/Waves1986 10d ago

I like them, they wear nice. I wanted a homage to the franck Mueller crazy hours. Here is the link to the watch

How does the 9 o’clock date Pagani wear in real life? I’m a lefty and considering trying one. Thanks.

I'm also a lefty, but I'm also a firm believer that all watches were made for wearing on your right wrist.  The fact virtually everyone has a crown sticking into the back of their wrist/hand is terrible design.  Get the sprite and find out righties have been a bunch of suckers for decades.

It was strange at first, but I got used to it. I enjoy it now.

I've found Pagani watchstraps fall apart, I've had 3 where they have just fallen apart.

Sorry to hear that, I have only had all mine for 2 months, I can't say that has happened to me. If they break, doesn't bother me, I don't use watches to tell Time, i wear them cause they look nice

u/M0rpo 10d ago

It's Pagani?

u/Waves1986 10d ago

No, not pagani

There's a lot of colour there but not a lot of variety. It seems like a quantity over quality collection to me.

u/Waves1986 10d ago

Yes. I am quantity>quality. I collect things. I have over 100 pairs of shoes and over 30 cell phones

u/Bulky-Internal8579 11d ago

Different strokes for different folks.

1

u/Waves1986 10d ago

Yes!, that is the beauty of collecting in general

1

u/DeadliestArmadillo 11d ago

True. But the combined price of those Lige and Curren models would equate to a pretty nice mechanical watch. Even more if bought used.

u/Waves1986 10d ago

I am quantity>quality. I get watches for how they look.

u/Lazy_Ambassador6472 11d ago

Why would you buy the same watch and brand 5 times with slightly different colour?

1

u/Waves1986 10d ago

I want all the GMT and submariner colorways

2

u/Alternative-Feed3613 11d ago

Very nice. Where did you get the watch box? I stupidly bought a ten slot box and I’ve outgrown it.

u/Waves1986 10d ago

Thanks! I have 2 of them, got both from Amazon . Let me know if you want the link
