Finally got a mechanical Flieger B, been looking out for the Laco version but settled on this one from Ali Express at fifty odd notes, arrived much earlier than their 6th December estimate.

Roy, I read this thread with amazement with respects to how many watches you own/get through! If you don't mind me asking how big is your collection or is it a rolling band wagon of what takes your fancy?
Think the current collection is around the 200 mark? Quick audit of last three months shows I’ve sold 20 watches and purchased 7 so numbers are intentionally reducing (but the next three months could be the reverse of that depending on what catches my eye!). Many of them are low value (around the £40 - £50 mark) but I do have a dozen or so more esoteric pieces.Quote:

Most 'normal' people have just one watch. In my case it is a 50 year old Rolex.
But collectors are a different species: you can only drive one car at a time, so why have several? But car collectors do. The same is for watch collectors.
Also I shouldn't be too hard on collectors - if you saw the amount of audio gear I have, you would wonder why.
It's the same with collecting records... You can only play one at a time :lol:
I could - in fact I could play four at a time. Would be a bit of a cacophony though.Quote:
