Watches: Time’s Up – When Watch Collectors Decide To Sell Their Treasured Timepieces

Here’s a rhetorical question. A man spends a substantial portion of his adult life building his dream watch collection. One day, he comes to the realisation that he has to sell the lot. Why? The answer’s obvious.

And a lot of that preconception comes from the values that are associated with watches these days.”
