Definitely not. Your hobby is the collection of parts, and your pleasure is to contemplate its potential to become beatiful watches. If you execute that potential, your entire collection loses its value. And you will have to stock up again. A watch is not built because you have the pieces for it, it is built because you desire a certain watch. Building only because you have the pieces does not make sense.

I know, I built a few once, gave away a couple of watches, used a lot of parts and accessories, but I seem to have more now than I had before.....what's going on?

The void is calling, man.
It's the collector in you
Honestly, I would not worry.
It is so much fun to hunt down parts and then just possess them.
