Hi guys, the question is simple, I am trying to learn from your mistakes because I don't have money to make my own.
And I thought we could share some stories too.

I was just typing the exact same thing before I saw your comment.

For a while I kept buying micro brands. There is nothing inherently wrong with them, but I bought a lot that I just don't wear I was just swept up in the hype. It is a very real truth that buying a bunch of $300-500 watches ends up being a bit of a waste if they're not things you'll wear all the time. With the amount of micros I have sitting in a drawer I could have bought a nice Omega or one of those cool Glassbox Carreras instead. I'll never get anything for them even close to what I spent so it's probably not even worth the hassle of trying to sell.

Oh well, live and learn I guess.
