To be honest, if we really do a survey, not many WIS guys around. Maybe it is just happened what we are members of various watch forums, it seems that "there are many WIS guys" around. But that's actually ONLINE.
Here in this town where I live, I HAVE NOT COME across anyone (besides the watch stores owners) who is a WIS guys or interested in watches like us. Sad but it's reality.
However, that does not exstinguish my passion of watches!

sounds about average for non-watch laymen. you have to remember that we who carry the watch-bug are the exception not the norm. i know because lots of people who know me say i'm not normal.
i can't count the number of people who ask me why i wear such a big watch when i wear any panny or big pilot. while not a watch snob i do feel much more affable when i am around someone who appreciates the desire to have something somewhat unique and can converse in any way about the craftmanship or design characteristics on current pieces or vintage.
