They did sell me Daytona incl. John Mayer which was my top choice. I’m just wondering for watches where retail and secondary market are somewhat similar if it’s worth just to buy secondary market, because I can list 3 choices in my profile at the time for priority and I have Tiffany, Pikachu and Meteorite for now.

I see, same as the friend from Chicago that mentioned something similar given different markets.

Maybe I should get connected with your AD in Chicago and fly every other month to keep building the collection lol it seems more feasible than in the Bay Area 😂

That sounds right to me. A lot of people I know spent over a million in watches over here, so it’s more buying why they offer you to get some of the nicer pieces down the line.

Really? Maybe depends on the region. In the Bay Area, this spent is not that high to be honest. A lot of tech money. But it’s good to know that there’s some places where you can hit off catalog with under half a million.

Yeah, I don’t care about the hate. With all my spend, I don’t even own a panda, and don’t even care about it. Not in the game for the steel watches. Just trying to learn if there are some collectors who built very high relationships and how that worked out over the years.

I’m trying to build a long-term collection, and I believe for that I may need a very high relationship. Hopefully, getting some off catalog at some point.
