Ep. 26 A New Collectors Journey
Many of us are seasoned watch collectors that have become jaded from negative comment sections or looking at watches one way for too long. That is why we thought having a talk with someone who is somewhat newer to the hobby would help us all gain some perspective.We came across Flavia because she was a listener who mentioned us in a post who had a great article in her Substack about how an early purple Swatch worn to a law internship interview shaped the way she viewed watches.In the past two years she has gone from buying a neo vintage Tag Heuer Formula 1 to having a spreadsheet to help track all the watches that have come in and out of her collection in between visiting Watches and Wonders.Take a listen to her journey, it just might help you rediscover some of your passion.
