I have been diagnosed with a very rare form of "watch nut-ism". Are any other members ...
suffering from the same condition? How does one overcome this condition?
my wife thinks i am incurable!
how many watches can one person need!
how much time can you spend looking at "watches" on the computer
get a hobby- or rather another hobby
Any of this sound familiar

You can't fight it. It's impossible
Many times I go on the hunt for a new watch before the one I JUST bought arrives. I've even thought about getting professional help, but I can't lie down long enough to finish a session. Must get on that PC to hunt for another. "Time's a wasting . . ." LOL
I've had the same disease for over 30 years now and
sometimes I think it's under control and then.... it just sucks you back in. It seems the only treatment is to buy something, then the symptoms seem to stop screaming for a while.
Mine is one not just regarding watches.... I've been everywhere, motorcycles, motorcycle jackets, guns, cameras, golf clubs (especially putters!), paintings, neckties, shoes,......it never ends.
I look back at the time and effort devoted to this and think I must be somewhere beyond crazy, foolish, ridiculous,..... but damn, it's been fun!! What a way to go!

My doctor just informed me this condition is contagious ...
Sorry if I infected anyone.
I just bought an AP RO and i'm already thinking about the next watch.
It just does'nt stop, the calatrava 5127 is not going out of my mind.
it's the patek syndrome...
i have the patek syndrome. it's the only disease i don't want to be cured of.
I feel
NORMAL after reading this post! Thanks guys! but yes the countless hours looking at the screen, then the purchase
. My wife is used to the routine by now..."isnt that the watch youve been looking at online for the last two weeks, when did you get it?!
The itch reaches astronomical levels sometimes, deals, swaps, share selling, petrodollar burrrning.....all to scratch that itch But looking back funnily enough...some watches were more fulfilling than others....namely new model rolex and patek purchased very early after release.....very special feeling that makes the hysteria worth it
