Bike Mike Posted December 19, 2009 Report Share Posted December 19, 2009 If you have to ask if you should be slowing down, you obviously are not going fast enough! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toadtorrent Posted December 19, 2009 Report Share Posted December 19, 2009 You only need to slow down enough to have time to take pics and post your opinions about the pieces you get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxman Posted December 19, 2009 Report Share Posted December 19, 2009 Sounds to me like your having a good time with this hobby. Dosen't get much better that that, you could also send me a few of your reps, might make you feel better Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gimme a good 1:1 Fiddy or a CG instead I just noticed from your profile you live in Singapore. Pity. If you lived in US then you could just rationalize spending money on 'replica' and not 'food' as good social conscience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samurai Posted December 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2009 The wife is quite supportive of the hobby. Her rationale is that she'd rather have me spend fun money on reps rather than in some girlie bars for some real fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But after almost 5 yrs of being in the game...is this a normal behaviour? Should I be slowing down n take it easy? As you included that, I think you'll be safe from the Mrs As for slowing down/speeding up... I'd say it depends entirely on your collecting strategy. Do you like to rotate through several watches daily, maybe just rotate them for particular wardrobes/occasions, with a particular favorite getting primary wrist time? If you fall into the latter category, then 'bulk buying' is a bit redundant, but it's all down to your own tastes and what makes you happy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteM Posted December 19, 2009 Report Share Posted December 19, 2009 Its posts like these that pr**k my conscience luckily I have enough watches to time it hopefully that time will get shorter!!! And I have to say how grateful I am that I love PAMs because my other half cannot tell the difference between any of them, she still thinks I only have one with loads of straps!
