Is it possible to stop collecting?
I'm not sure. Thinned a few out a month or two ago when I needed the funds for other things. Had planned on a hiatus from buying for a while until I'd fixed up a couple of project watches I've had sat about for a while. However before I know if am back browsing ebay and classifieds on this and other watch site

I know exactly what you mean. Still gotta get round to adjusting circa 50+ watches after the clocks went back on Sunday. Might be easier to just buy some more ha ha

Only two in the post for me (and a couple that I may buy off a mate ...) Collecting G-Shocks is a lot cheaper and easier than my other main hobby, collecting military vehicles and tractors.
G-Shocks take up far less space, deteriorate a lot slower, don't require fuel to be played with - though I am looking at a bulk buy discount for CR-2016 batteries - but are well supported with a load of forums and information on the net, are readily available, have a loyal following, require a certain amount of satisfying maintenance and have some fascinating quirks and features amongst the vast spectrum of models and styles.
So why not collect G-Shocks? Many compare favourably to the price of a night out at a restaurant, pub or cinema or the price of a football ticket and provide lasting pleasure.
Go for it!

Good stuff, look forward to seeing what you have. Have a gloss GLX on the way along with various bits which should see at least one old watch back in action
Nicely summed up. Guess they are quite easy and relatively cheap to collect. I also collect other things (is it a make thing, suppose so) which although not as large as military vehicles are both more time and space intensive. As such find the watches and Casios almost light relief sometimes.
