Maybe If I Keep My Collection Within The Capacity Of My New Display Box?

Ok so I have this watch problem thing...I'm thinking that maybe I can control my watch "habit" if I just commit to holding the line at the 15 watch capacity of my nice new Volta display box. Right now I'm pretty satisfied with my combination of (mostly) vintage and new and have convinced myself I have no need to continue trolling for my next acquisition on the For Sale section of the Forum and the web sites of the many "trusted sellers". So here is my go forward strategy...if I buy a new piece I have to sell one off to make room. Theoretically this will result in a steady upgrade in the overall quality of my collection. I've tried everything else...maybe this will work

Easier to just buy another box and keep filling

Collection is looking good!

Thanks...I saw recently where you have a similar "problem" with an overflowing watch storage / display box...don't you hate when that happens...

When you come upon your next find it will just be a case of thinking outside of the box.

Very nice collection and display case. I have been using the one out one in rule for the last year or so and it is working nicely.

Outstanding collection. Hard to stick to a one-in-one-out policy when you've got the bug that bad!
