No pushback....but you bring up an interesting point. I think there is a difference in how many of us collect watches. Some collect vintage models but never actually wear them. I even met a collector one time who did not even wear a watch. He collected all kinds of watches but never wore any of them.
MF has an unbelievable PW collection but I seriously doubt he has any of them in his jacket pockets.
On the other hand I only collect watches I intend to wear. If I find myself not wearing a watch I will sell it. And so that is the rub for me on the the smaller watches. I like a big watch anyway, and always have. So, no matter how much I appreciate the history of the pieces I know I won't wear them and therefore I won't collect them. This is not meant to denigrate anyone's choices.
For example, I think that Tony's quest to acquire all of the Mark 11 watches issued to the RAF,BOAC etc is really cool. I understand his compassion for these pieces even though I would not be able to wear such small watches.
Anyway, I think Mark's point was that after wearing a relatively large watch for a week it is difficult to wear the smaller watches.
I think we can all appreciate the other Forum members collections even if we would not actually wear the watches collected.
