I have been collecting for about 7 years on and off. In order to be able to afford some nice pieces I began buying and selling watches and using the $ from the hobby to put into building my collection.

I also learned watchmaking to I could buy watches that are of value but may be broken and or just need a service. It allows for a higher profit margin to put back in to my watches and also I love the feeling of brining back to life an otherwise dead watch.

So here is what I have. It’s lovely but not hype. It’s vintage or vintage inspired and it’s that styling in which I love.

Great! I am a Tissot fan also. And I have the same Explorer model, which I would never part with.
