This piece captures, for me, the essence of my love/hate relationship with watches. Wonderful writing - you hit all the critical elements of an emotionally charged hobby. And let’s not get into the buying and selling, dealers, and sellers who have little watch knowledge and, even with images, fail to describe condition, age, history, etc. And yet I persist blowing up all the stoic philosophy I’m trying to practice. And so much for Zen. I know desire is the root of evil - so I must be a junkie. Thanks for sharing with such candor and honesty Michael.
