I do not have alot of money and am a student so i can only afford a couple of casios. I own a mtp v006d analogue watch, a f91w and an a168. So am i still a watch collector? I know its a silly question but it came to my mind so i asked it. Thanks!

Collecting is more about mindset and intent than anything else. My wife has multiple watches, but it’s not a collection because she doesn’t intend it to be a collection. I have a bunch of suits to wear for work, but I don’t consider it a collection. The three-watch collection is a recognized trope, and the one-brand variant is a much-discussed variation. If that’s what you consider yourself to have, then you’re a collector.
