All of the above. I acquire, get tired with it, and go on to the next. Only a few have been with me for decades and ain't ever going anywhere.

If you are a buyer and a seller doesn't that make you a flipper by default? ^_^

I'm looking to buy this year, one for myself and one for the wife.

Something sporty for me and a TT 179173 DJ with diamonds on a jubilee bracelet for her.

I already have two on my radar for 2012...
I hope that's it but I doubt it.
Guess that makes me a buyer.

Sounds like you've just got another new one, or should I say another old one?

Come on give, what is it Ken?

Edit: Never mind I just saw it in todays WRUW.

Very nice Ken, Congrats.

Unless they come out with the Pepsi Gmt C, I'll stick with what I've got.

I strictly wear.....a 1 watch guy....I buy....I wear until it breaks.....and then buy again......I have owned three watches in my life...and I am in my late 40's. I wore my last watch, an Omega SeaMaster for 18 years and it just went into retirement......now, I own a DEEPSEA....my one and only watch for the next 20-30 years.

Probably a bit of both, though I guess that it may be a bit lopsided on the buy side with a PAM 372 expected to come in at some point...
