I have stopped collecting watches after 20 years in the hobby. These are the 3 I’m keeping: PRS516 on suede/deployant, Promaster JP1060 on Velcro, and Protrek on G-shock adapter/pass through.

Have to keep the PRS as it was a gift. And the Protrek triple sensor is so practical. If I had one Casio only, it would be a Protrek. As for the Promaster, I’m keeping it for the dive computer built in as well as the anadigi dial and big red hands.

Because I may start earning money again from innovating on tennis equipment, I feel like buying just one more watch. A luxury timepiece to finalize this craving. Maybe a GS antimagnetic.

What about you guys?

No, I’m unemployed. Did some freelance engineering work lately for NewSoda so should get paid something later. It’s a tennis racket innovation.

On one hand you say you’re done collecting, on the other you say you want to get one more?

I don’t subscribe to that school of thought, unless you’re nearing your end of days.

There’ll always be another milestone.

You’re right, I am slowly succumbing to a stroke I suffered in 2007. One of the reasons I don’t work anymore is my memory is fading. I really would like to own a luxury timepiece before I become a cabbage.

I was watching YouTube, “the mad watch collector”, where he says sometimes a watch is just incompatible with our lifestyle. I find I wear an analog G-shock most of the time, not an auto or a digital. And it cost just 400RM.
