Description: <p>Purged a handful of watches to piece together these watches. Moved watches from Ball, Longines, Frederique Constant, Alpina, Seikos and more. Finally feel like it’s all squared away…<br/><br/>Want to add another tag and possibly sell/trade the rootbeer.</p><p> </p><p>https://www.reddit.com/r/PrideAndPinion/comments/16c5h0c/collection_update/?utm_source=share&amp;utm_medium=mweb3x&amp;utm_name=mweb3xcss&amp;utm_term=1&amp;utm_content=share_button</p><p> </p>

Description: <p class="font_8">8 years, 8ish watches. I'm at a point in the hobby where I feel like I've rounded out my collection and I find myself wanting to cull a few pieces.</p>
<p class="font_8">My SBGA415 gets less and less wear lately even though I'm still attached to it. I pretty much only wear my Nomos when traveling but even then I prefer my G-Shock.</p>
<p class="font_8">Not pictured are a rhodium gray OP 39 and a Ming 37.07 that I've already decided to part ways with.</p>
<p class="font_8">Two pieces on my short list are the De Rijke Miffy Moonphase and maybe the new FOIS. I would ditch my numbered edition if I were to get that. I'm still on the fence about the fauxtina and the stepped dial after seeing it in person.</p>
<p class="font_8">For the more experienced collectors out there, how do you decide when it's time to move on from a piece?</p>

Description: <p>Turning 30, Reflecting on my Watch Journey</p><p> </p><p>I recently ran across watch Reddit past few months and love hearing others&#x27; insights, seeing others&#x27; collections, and learning more about timepieces. As I’m about to hit 30 in a few months, I wanted to share my SOTC especially since I&#x27;ve only been seriously into watches for the past 2-3 years. It all started as a casual interest when my parents gifted me a watch and it quickly turned into a full-blown passion (or obsession, depending on who you ask).</p><p>Looking at what I&#x27;ve gathered so far, I’m starting to realize that my most recent purchase, an A. Lange, might be a sign that it&#x27;s time to slow down and enjoy what I’ve got before making another big leap (psychologically – I feel a bit of guilt for purchasing such an expensive piece; even though it&#x27;s a comfortable purchase objectively).</p><p>Here’s a quick tour of what’s in the box:</p><p>Breitling Premier B01 &quot;Panda&quot;: My first luxury watch purchase 2 years ago. My father had a Navitimer and few others so I naturally first went towards Breitling. I wore the Panda a lot the first year, but its write time has decreased as my taste has evolved and as I&#x27;ve gotten more pieces. I love that it’s sporty and versatile. Actually looking to move this piece - you can find it here.<br/><br/>Omega Speedmaster Professional Moonwatch: No collection feels complete without a Speedy, right? My cousin had recently gotten a Moonswatch and I first learned about Speedy&#x27;s 2 years ago. The minute I learned about the history, I was hooked. Bought it during a layover internationally. This is a favorite and a regular on my wrist every week.</p><ol><li><span style="font-weight:bold">A. Lange &amp; Söhne 1815 Up/Down</span>: My most recent and significant addition. I fell in love with the craftsmanship and elegance of Lange. I dove deep into learning about their movemens, finishing, etc. So much to the point that I ordered a Loupe and can&#x27;t wait to look more closely at the movement in a couple days. This piece is nothing short of stunning. It’s made me realize I might need to pace myself—both in terms of finances and in appreciating the watches I already have!</li><li><span style="font-weight:bold">Cartier Santos Dumont</span>: I had been eying a Tank for a while before I was in Monaco for vacation. I then walked into a showroom and fell in love with the Dumont. This duo-tone Santos Dumont is on a dark-blue leather band by Cartier. Out of all of my watches, this piece gets the most compliments interestingly enough. I also love dressing this up and dressing it down. Another regular!</li></ol><p>Raymond Weil: The watch that started it all! My parents gifted this when I came out of college. Simple and still elegant. Reminder of where I began – both in my watch journey, but also in the start of my entrepreneurship journey.<br/><br/>Casio F-91W: The ultimate beater. I picked this up for nostalgia&#x27;s sake, and it’s fun to throw on and I actually love the aesthetic of it. I used to rock an Apple Watch a ton, but made the switch to Whoop to accomodate more interesting watches. I wear this at the gym a ton to time sets and also for casual everyday wear if I know I&#x27;ll be out and about.</p><p>Moonswatch &quot;White Side of the Moon&quot;: This one’s probably the most polarizing in the collection. It’s bold, it’s bright, and a bit much for me in hindsight. I mainly got this because of the Snoopy in it. Want to get a true Omega Snoopy Speedy, but seems impossible to get unless on the grey market. I&#x27;d love suggestions on straps for this because otherwise, it is a bit too chunky with the Nato velcro strap.<br/><br/>Looking back, it&#x27;s been a crazy journey. If you told me that I&#x27;d spend as much $$$ as I have had on watches, I&#x27;d tell you I was crazy. That being said, I couldn’t be happier with how my collection has shaped up. I&#x27;d love to hear suggestions on what you think I could add to my collection in future years. Currently on a waitlist with my AD for a Pepsi GMT. Besides that, I think the next couple of years might be about slowing down, wearing what I have, and really appreciating each piece. Also taking a break financially to positively adjust my watch collection as a smaller and smaller % of my networth lol. Maybe even passing on a few to make room for something new down the line.<br/><br/>Thanks for letting me share, and I’d love to hear your thoughts or any advice as I approach this next decade of life—and watch collecting!</p><p> </p><p>https://www.reddit.com/r/Watches/s/xjB68l4j5B</p>
