I'm curious if any of my counterpart Collective members have experienced wanting to like and own a "coveted" or esteemed brand but never warming up to it.
I have tried on more Cartier than I can recall and even gifted my daughter one (she is pleased). Try as I might, I realize they are not for me. Any Santos, Ballon Bleu, Pasha, Roadster... damn. Historic brand, stellar engineering, craftsmanship, classic designs, handsome, two-tone, rectangular, vintage looks ... doesn't matter. I know Fed worked for them and has great things to say and I suspect many enjoy their Cartier pieces.
Just for kicks, has anyone experienced similar "Meh, me no like," feelings about a premium brand? I suspect the Crown engenders similar feelings too, although that I kinda get with the hype, "scarcity," AD games, etc.
