I just caught myself seriously contemplating buying a 80k watch not long after having bought my last piece. I don't see the end of this tunnel. We should form a support group for those who are suffering from this condition. The bug is no joke.

The best that can be done is to keep all of us with the bug quarantined to this site to live out our days the best we can.

Its scary i know. I just bought my DD 118238 like 3 weeks ago. Now i'm already looking at getting an AP within the next 2 months. Seriously, i feel the excitement of me looking for a watch to buy is great than actually having the watch in hand.

I gave into the addiction long ago. Beyond denial at this point.

As soon as the safe is full I start selling. It is a good discipline!

You know it's bad when your spouse tells you to "get off of the damn Rolex forum because it is costing us too much money!" Ha. Get off of TRF, must be the egg nog.

I am clean for 6 months and proud...... But I know it won't last. I have finished this year neutral having bought two and sold two. All be it the new ones were more expensive than what left.

In the past several years I've considered myself "cured" as long as don't mortgage the house.

It is not limited to watches and also all other gadgets, such as camera, hi-if, cars, bags...etc. Personally I feel that I am more enjoying the buying process than owning the products.

Stay away from TRF and the other forums. Stop browsing at watch related sites and the classifieds.
Otherwise, we look forward to your next incoming. ![]() |
