Some say that…
Some say that a hobby is something you do for fun without any goal of making a profit…
Some say you may be able to make some profit on your hobby.

I agree with all your statement so far.
The only thing is that I think of myself as a hobby collector..!

In that case maybe I am not a collector…?
Bob, I like your approach – all watches should be used and hopefully never leave your watch box. I have the same mindset, all my watches I use and I never get a watch in purpose of speculation. Of course, some gets more wrist time then others… But! I have...
a new possible Term
@bomman I'v read your lines carefully and I think there is a possible answer to your philosophic question: it is a hobby !! because there is a set of fulfilled criteria: it is time consuming searching www, chatting with friends reading mags and articles s...

Congrats on this new catch! What lead you to choose this one rather than a Master Geo, or another watch of the same complication? Best, Nicolas.
wasn't that easy
Hi Nicolas, first of all, for me it represent a perfect compromise between a dress and sportive watch. There had been Dewitt la double fuseau, Corum Admirals Cup GMT, Vacheron Overseas GMT, Glashütte Original Sport Evolution GMT and despite i own already ...
