Lesson : Building Your Collector Identity
Every collector has a beginning. Maybe it was your first Rolex Datejust, maybe it was an Omega Speedmaster that pulled you into the history, maybe it was a Tudor that gave you a taste of what collecting could be.
In Lesson 1, I shared my favorite 5 pieces and what they taught me, not just about watches, but about buying, selling, and holding value in the long run.
Here’s why this matters: Collectors who treat watches as more than shiny objects learn faster, lose less money, and gain more confidence. The “story” of your collection is also the story of your decision-making. When you write it down and share it, you start to see your own patterns — the good ones and the mistakes.
Your assignment:
- Post your Top 3 watches you’ve owned (or want to own).
- Tell us what each one taught you about buying, trading, collecting, or yourself.
- Share the “lesson” behind the watch, not just the model.
Why? Because this community isn’t built on hype. It’s built on education and sharpening each other.
When you share your story, you not only learn about your own edge, you give the rest of us a chance to learn from you.
Drop your Top 3 below. Let’s see what your collection says about you.
