panermaniac Posted February 9, 2012 Report Share Posted February 9, 2012 WOW! what an incredible collection. But why would someone have so many unused watches? Or is that normal for some collectors? I find it sad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbetts1790 Posted February 9, 2012 Report Share Posted February 9, 2012 yeah i saw that too, thats a ridiculous collection! they must be in need of some serious cash to sell all those... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paneraiguy Posted February 9, 2012 Report Share Posted February 9, 2012 Not sure why people always nearly assume that when people sell collections they need the money? There are some big collectors out there and this person may wish to use the funds to buy other things maybe get into another brand. These types of people with these big collections are normally the type that also collect things like $200 000 bottles of spirits, and I've seen Chinese guys flick over $ 200 000 in cash for 1 bottle of spirits then head over to watches and hand over $400 000 in cash for those. And where you may ask, try DFS Galleria in Hong Kong Sent from SUNRAY MINOR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chefcook Posted February 9, 2012 Report Share Posted February 9, 2012 Paneraiguy is completely right. A lot of collectors get bored one day and then finally decide to sell all the stuff to start over again with something different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watchmeister Posted February 9, 2012 Report Share Posted February 9, 2012 I think it is another guy freaking out over the fact that Panerai is now the "it" watch for the twenty something twits. In the last couple of months I have met up with a couple of "legendary" Risti's who were reducing their collection to a couple out of disgust for various reasons.
