 Through a mechanical watch I can see the real world of a watch. It is incredible how those tiny pieces of metal can work together and provide us with time. I appreciate your comments!

well, if we're sharing humble opinions I think  Status collectors aren't really watch collctors they're status collectors.  However I think watch collectors do collect watches of status(all of them?)  I break collectors down into 2 groups myself. Those appreciate asthetics and those who appreciate the micromechanics.  naturally they cross over and I'm sure many appreciate both.  I appreciate a good looking well designed watch but if it's quartz it holds no intrest for me.  I do however encourage those that do collect quartz to continue hoping they'll grow into mechanical watches.

 

of course this is all humble opinions:D
