10 Types Of Watch Snobs: Luxury Elitists, Quartz Haters, Affordable Only Collectors & More

Today I'm joined by engineer turned watch entrepreneur Marc Frankel of Long Island Watch for an essential #WatchTalk episode all about watch snobs. In this month's watch chat we break down the 10 (and a half) types of watch snobs, and try to understand what it is that causes them to turn their noses up at particular watches or brands. From affordable Casio and Swatch watches to luxury pieces from Rolex, Patek Philippe, and Audemars Piguet, and the popular Apple smart watch, there's a watch snob out there at every level of watch collecting. Join us for another fun and laidback watch talk all about watch enthusiasts, purists, elitists, brand loyalists, armchair watchmakers, investment collectors, and many more. Are you guilty of being any of these watch snob types? Please share in the comments!
