With a long -lasting Thursday vintage column, the brand has been changed, so it will be a criminal to keep the watch of the watch collection in 2024 carefully. There are some highlights. My obsession with the vintage galler chronograph continues (there is still room for impulse purchase). I invested more in research, lost my motivation to share in social media, and had a hard time selling.
I didn’t remember whether I bought a modern watch last year, so I had to check the record this morning. Well, I was surprised to know that not only did not buy a modern watch in 2024 but not all in 2023! Since purchasing the last modern watch in December 2022, modern watch fasting has been 785 days today. By the way, can you guess what was it?
Limited edition of Fratello x ORIS DIVERS 65
About two weeks ago, one of my friends collecting my beloved watches asked a collector of other friends in the group closed by me and other colleagues that I got the most watches last year. I did it. I was reluctant to answer. To be honest, I wanted to be a vintage clock, but it wasn’t. During the business day, I was wearing a vintage watch. I rotated a lot of them a week, so I didn’t wear one of the watches I wore on the weekend. When I woke up on Saturday, my wrist was often the same.
The most wrist time in 2024
There is no doubt that I was wearing 65 flatello x oris divers more than any other watch. The reason is simple. I spent most weekends to rebuild the weekend country house. Therefore, if it was unavoidable, a durable weapon that would not worry about sinking on concrete was needed. As mentioned above, I showed this watch without mercy. Our house is near the forest and no streetlights. The evening and night are very dark. I have never used LUMED DIAL as often as last year. The readability of the dial at midnight is invincible. I just checked it and still had some pieces. In other words, you can still get 65 modern oris divers without a small split in your hands.
My most rotated clock
When I was not sinking in concrete, sand, or clay, I was sporting the vintage galette collection. I can’t get a galette chronograph. I love all of them. I really like them, so choosing a galette watch in the morning takes more time than deciding what my daughter wears. If you have a 5 -year -old girl, you can see what I mean! But if I had to name my favorite, they would be a multi -clon 12 small, “Snow White”, and a multi -cron calendar. What kind of watch did you wear last year? Please share with us in comments.
My watch collection strategy from 2024
In 2020, I added more than 120 clocks to the collection. Since then, the number has shrunk every year, and only 25 watches have been purchased in 2024. What’s even more interesting is that only the four clocks did not have the Gallal name. I have already introduced a very small number of offers to you. DULUX CURVIMETER represents what I like about vintage watches and those that keep digging at night. An unusual complication and creative or strange use that proves that a watch becomes a unicorn and does not need to spend tens of thousands of people. I want to add some more in 2025.
Breitling sales
I’m happy to say that I didn’t invest more money on the watch I bought last year. Last year, I decided to integrate my collection and fulfill my promise. How did you approach? Everything started with a friend asking if I could imagine one of my favorite Breitling watches. i couldn’t. But then I noticed that I couldn’t get them all, can I do it? So, I focused on gallal watches, so I realized that I wasn’t wearing my own breitling piece. And once, once you let go, it’s easy. In total, last year, six Brightling watches left me. I hunted them for years, but I’m not sad. All of them were replaced with a galette chronograph, which I rotated with a smile on my face.
Shipping a watch is a job in itself
Watches are not easy
Yes, one note about sales: Not easy. I’m already tired of this idea when imagining all the work I need to upload a watch to every market. For the same problem, I haven’t tried the auction site yet. I found it easier to provide some watches to the dealers I know. It costs a certain amount of money, but it is much more convenient. Anyway, most watches went to a collector of the fellow who asked randomly by Instagram or email. And they often asked about other watches.
Letting on Instagram
Speaking of social media, you must admit that there was not much noise in the last 12 months. You can count my post on your left finger. Then I took a break and noticed that it was not so much. What I needed was more information about Galette. I don’t want to put some unknown books and catalogs to collect more knowledge. Some investments were rewarded, and other investments did not do so.
IMPULSE BUYS
Five years ago, I made many voluntary purchases, but have tightened it in recent years. My Solix Regulator was the only wilder that I went to last year. Not buying a clock on a whim is suitable for focusing, but it closes the door to encounter something unexpected.
I will end this remorse regarding the decision of the clock collection in 2024 with a very promising memo: I’m happy to say that I can still shoot in the dark. At the end of last year, I checked one of the auction sites that I hadn’t visited for months. There was nothing other than a lot of garbage. I didn’t see a promising clock, but I continued to scroll down. I have been doing it for a long time until I found an inseparable HEUER skipper Ref from all the 20 euros. 7764. There was an original box on the original bracelet. stay tuned! If you find a lack of bezel, share it with you.
