I recently got really into watches.

While I'm into it as well, but how do you define it as a hobby? Some people tinker with watches, building or fixing them, but does owning a few watches and discussing them online count as a hobby?

I always thought if you actually wore more than one watch regularly that was getting there more so than just about anybody.

Formulated by default decades before any idea people would be carrying timekeeping cellphones everywhere at all times.

Now if you simply wear one watch once in a while that's way greater interest than most people have any more.

Most people I know have apple watches so researching mechanic movements and models is enough for hobby status to me. Like any other 'collecting' hobby.

But yes I've taken a few apart to try to fix and service them, even if it's only with my $20 amazon repair tool set.
