As a big fan of watches and owner of 31 models, yep you could say I'm an addict..I know many people always ask my why on earth do I need so many watches ?
Well, I suppose its just like anything, some people like music and have a huge cd collection but they can't listen to all those tunes at once can they, depending on their mood they will listen to whatever takes their fancy...the same can be said about watches.
I can wear an Adidas watch or Casio watch if I am out running or playing sports or something like that, I can wear a Timex or Rotary for dressing up, especially my Rotary Gold watch, which compliments my suit nicely, so its good for business meetings or going out to functions like weddings or to the races etc.
Then I can wear a fashionable Micheal Kors or Mark Ecko watch if I am in the mood for being a bit flash,,,so theres the answer,....
I money was no object then I would probably buy at least one watch from each brand of watches available...I've got my eye on Black Dice watches recently,, and Obaku watches really catch my eye with their very slender designs,,, they are both next on the list when I next buy watches...its just a question of finding the best place to buy them.

Watch Forums
There are many forums around the net where you can talk about watches, although most of them are mainly forums that are run by watch sellers and don't really allow links to the competition, which goes against the grain of the internet really.
One forum I am a member of is PMWF which stands for poor mans watch forum.
Although they do sell watches they are quite open and relaxed on the forum, you can talk about watches and also buy and sell watches in their forums. Other forums are quite tough about linking to other watch sellers or affiliate links etc,,bit stuffy if you ask me.. so I am not going to link to them !
On PMWF you can look through peoples ads for buying and selling watches which are mostly secondhand watches.
The only problem I have with PMWF is that initially then were set up to cater for cheap watches hense the name...but alas....they slowly succumbed to the lure of big advertising revenue and ended up taking on expensive brands like Panerai, Omega and Rolex...so whats the point ?
The point is they they have abandoned their original principles...I don't think its about cheap watches anymore,, I am a poor man....I want to find a cheapish watch...say for about 30-100 quid max...I don't think a watch over 50 quid should be considered a poor mans watches, not in the day and age of cheap quartz watches.
