A Discussion around the common things that we dislike about our watches after owning them. Disappointment in this hobby has got to be one of the harshest things to deal with, especially if the watch is one you've aspired to own for months, maybe even years. To later realise that you paid too much for it or that it just doesn't wear correctly (along with many other issues) all the while you've spent so much time justifying to yourself that these issues won't affect how you enjoy the watch.
