Bc1221 Posted August 8, 2014 Report Share Posted August 8, 2014 (edited) Hahaha. I know exactly what you mean. 3 months ago, I had 3 watches. Bought a 4th one and decided to get a nice 12 slot case. Now I feel like I have to fill it. I'm up to 9 watches now having sold 2 recently. I've been addicted to drugs before and this is a harder addiction! Lol I somehow justify buying a $300 rep bc well... It's a lot cheaper than the $10k gen. For some reason this means I should keep buying them. I won't buy another case. I won't buy another case. Nice collection you have there though. THIS is a bug... Holy crap!! I didn't even know thy made cases that big Edited August 8, 2014 by Bc1221 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
droptopman Posted August 9, 2014 Report Share Posted August 9, 2014 Like we are saying it an affliction. Same here had a 4 watch winder when I joined the forum, bought an 8 then had to fill it. Then both full so sold a few and gave my buddy the 4 winder. Now I have a deal with myself to only have 8 at a time. So when one is coming one goes on the sales board. Problem is sometimes they need work I can't do and that means sending them out. Then a empty slot is hard to look at so....think I have gone through 20+ pieces in six months. Tomorrow my GMT Franken will arrive and fill the last slot but my TC is out for repairs so something is going up for sale:) and I started sourcing parts for a 1016 build today and another DJ with Matt. Man I need HELP! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyjynx Posted August 9, 2014 Report Share Posted August 9, 2014 I'd like to tell you it gets better, but that will be what critics call "the full Pinocchio" "Such a lovely place....

GenTLe Posted August 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2014 Well, looks like a common bug so My receipt to move further is to try making from just a collecting hobby to something deeper like working on them (i.e. doing my watch service etc). Just hoping not to kill too many of them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice collection you have there though. Holy crap!! I didn't even know thy made cases that big I bought this beautiful case at Acetimer, that is just 5 minutes drive from my house. Really beautiful rosewood case, big enough slots, and well made for $110. www.acetimer.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
droptopman Posted August 10, 2014 Report Share Posted August 10, 2014 My 8 watch winder came from ace timer as well through eBay. Good winder for the money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luthier Posted August 10, 2014 Report Share Posted August 10, 2014 That's my next buy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GenTLe Posted August 10, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2014 Actually... Not sure I'll ever get a winder... Leaving the watches on it consume them a bit for nothing... At most I can take a single one, to use as a charger when I choose the watch I'll wear the day after... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luthier Posted August 12, 2014 Report Share Posted August 12, 2014 8 watches winder is A MUST to have, imagine - every day new watch, and no worries about setting date/time on each... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyjynx Posted August 13, 2014 Report Share Posted August 13, 2014 That's if you have only 8 watches. Looking at your impressive collection, Luthier, there's no way you can cycle your watches through an 8 watch winder and still have all of them keep correct time and date.

scissorkix Posted August 15, 2014 Report Share Posted August 15, 2014 I understand this obsession whole heartedly.
