2.A person who opens the back of a new Patek on the first day of acquisition and hand winds the rotor to tighten up the main spring to save wear on using the winding crown.

3. A person who takes his 2000 meter water proof Rolex SD off from the wrist. And puts it into the deepest pocket, and nine plastic bags before walking into a rain storm without any rain gear on.

4.A person who waits every 5 minute in front of his radio controlled clock in order to adjust all his/her 14 mechanical watches to the accuracy within -2/+2 seconds per 24 hours.


5. A person who can memorises all serial numbers of the Rolex watches made in the past 60 years but keeps forgetting the wife's wedding anniversary.

6. A person who washes his/her watch in luxury shampoo,polishes with specially bought cloth,then rests it on another specially bought cloth just encase they scratch the stainless steel.

7. A person who buys loupes and microscopes to look for the miniscule differences on dials, and look for cats whisker size so called alignment point differences.



20 years from now, there’ll be comprehensive data on 14060 dial variations, just like what’s been done with the 5513.
