    bro, to upsize or downsize depends on how deep is your pocket lol. but of cause. If u ask me, today. if i got the extra money. i would want to invest in a property Watches of cause! too much is never enough. but investing in a property would give u passive income and also capital appreciation. Invest first, spend later!

      I've completely downsized , evaulating which direction to head next. Think I have cleared out like 10 pcs in the past yr? Not much of a property guy, more into gold though.

            Yeah. I've got hit by the G-Shock bug before but somehow the 'wavy' design of the rubber strap didn't sit well on my wrist and it hurt after awhile so I released the ones I had.

              to me, no point keeping so many. so many watch, but human only can wear on 1 wrist

              i intending to keep maybe 3 or 4. the rest invest in audio or cars or photography.

              if really too much money, i will still pour all into property, or plan for early retirement

                          properties are deem to be appreciating asset.

                          watches are not deem to be appreciating assets.

                          i would rather buy gold than buy watch should i have spare cash to 'throw'

                            Moi ish looking to downsize. Decided that having cash on hand ish better than having watch on hand . Esp when I have plans to further my studies.

                            Now I am left with 1 G-Shock and my GMTIIc which I am also comtemplating to sell and get a cheaper beater
                            I dont need another watch, I dont need another watch, I dont need another watch, I dont need another watch.........

                              Me, downsizing my collection but still buying - getting rid of some and buying some (in a more controlled manner). Sometimes the return of selling few watches not enough to buy an expensive watch I like.

                              Recently sent a few of my/wife's watches for servicing and felt the pinch
                              Watches are like potato chips - You never stop at one

                              Never political, seldom diplomatic, always honest
