Anyone else impatient with the watch collecting? - It's taking over all my time!!!!

Well unlike a lot of people on here, I have only just caught the bug around 6 months ago.
I now read watches all day long!! History, movements, different references, watch videos, etc.
It's ALL I do. And I am being very impatient with wanting to have a small collection to start with.

Granted that I am only 25, have zero commitments, and make a good amount of money, also have saved up a good amount as I have had zero expensive hobbies in the past, I find myself going way too quickly!!

I bought an Omega speed master which I love dearly as my first watch.
I recently added a Rolex BLNR a few months ago and love that just as much.
I am now very seriously considering a Patek 5711.
I keep telling myself I will slow down after the next. I couldn't have imagined buying a watch as expensive as the 5711, and probably would have thought it was absolutely bizarre; but finding myself easily justifying it now and telling myself it will be the last for a full year.

I know collecting has to be slow, and should be enjoyed; However I just don't have the patience.

I can't be the only one..
