The "I'm depressed" may be a joke, but if not, just know that you are amazing! I hope you get better

You’d better marry Connie! Finding someone who listens and supports your hobbies, or in this situation jobs, is an amazing thing to have! Great video as always Jory!!! Let us know when the wedding is!

My old man picked up a jazz master open heart on a trip to Switzerland. Has grey and steel on the brown ostrich. He adores it. Super pretty piece.

I have reached the point that when I buy a watch I give a watch away, usually to either my son, or father. They're really happy with the way things have been turning out.. 😄 I've more recently started buying fewer watches, but more straps, and bracelets.

Those aren't just tips to follow on your collection, it's public service! There's nothing worst than regret selling a watch, and those can save you from that! Thanks again Jory!

The helicopter was from my buds at MCAS Miramar! They were keeping an eye on you Nephew!

Cool process, makes a lot of sense.
I would love to see more of the 1 watch 1 week videos.

This is well thought out wisdom and never heard anyone do a similar one.

Completely true about the strap, first “big” watch purchase for me was a Richard Legrand Oceanfairer Mk III (per Timeteller review), after awhile the bracelets sharp edges near the end links burned me out on it... put on a thick leather rally strap and holy crap is that watch beautiful now.

This topic has been on my mind for a month and I may try a few of the steps.

[ivaylommm]

Ha, I got the same thoughts and doings on the matter as well ! Makes me proud of myself a little bit for figuring it out.

The blue speedy triple-date 3523.80 was on my list for the longest time since I saw it on forum about two years back, got it through a trade a bit over a year ago and always loved it. Recently the collection has shifted quite a bit and a speedy pro has joined, and I just don't feel the same way about the triple-date anymore. Sure, it was one of my nicest watchers at the time and my dad told me never to sell it, but time has changed, my collection evolved, and at the end of the day I'm the one wearing the watches, not anyone else. Just finally made up my mind and sold it yesterday, hoping that it's found a new home

I have the 42mm Jazzmaster Openheart in steel with the blue dial. It's great. Get it with the bracelet though, the bracelet that goes with it is actually really nice and you can always put it on leather after you get it.

[gamesetmatt]

I like the "what would you replace it with" question, but I always ask myself this:
If I made a mistake/changed my mind and wanted to buy the same watch again...
1. Would I be able to?
2. Where could I buy it from?
3. Could I get it brand new?
4. Could I get it at a reasonable price?
If I'm not happy with those answers, then I would consider not selling. I think those are some good questions to ask as well.

love your Bolder watch with the orange strap .

[chrisg-ggiu]

Great subject and advice! I also had a Jazzmaster OpenHeart, but blue. It was the second Hamilton watch I owned, but after I bought a Hamilton Spirit of Liberty blue auto, I didn’t wear it and I just didn’t like it as much any more. I eventually sold it and haven’t had a single regret doing so.

[fergthest]

Great guide - I would also ask myself how difficult or expensive it would be to buy it again if I changed my mind.

I have champagne khaki king.
I wore it on the bracelet since I bought it since I hated the leather strap that it came with.
Few months back I treated myself to Marathon GSAR and stopped wearing Hamilton.

I started watching House MD series and noticed that House is wearing Khaki King in the original leather strap. Figured I give it a go. I worked that strap for 2 days in my hands to soften the leather since it is thick and extremely stiff.
Now I can't stop wearing it again!

Switching straps does the trick for sure!

Step 4 is the most important one for me. Watches are instruments in the first place, after that things of beauty. Because of that I need specific watches for certain areas. I'm going to swim today? I pick up my SKX009J1. Or to the gym? It's the GWM 5610-1ER with the Black Bull Bar. A wedding or classy appointment coming up ? Putting on the Junghans Max Bill or I buy a nice Orient Bambino that perfectly fits my suit. And if I like a watch outside my possesion better than my current one in the same category, I simply swap them. For that reason I always have a certain amount of watches, some I wear more often than others, but I never own too many.

There's some good advice here for collectors of all kinds, be it guns, motorcycles, audio electronics, etc.
