A portmanteau word combining "connoisseur" (which means someone who is an expert judge in a particular matter) and "Tyrannosaurus Rex" (dinosaur species whose name means "tyrant lizard king" and is known as the angry, carnivorous jerk among dinosaurs that no other dinosaurs liked).
"Connoisseurus Rex", therefore, represents someone who takes connoisseurship to the next level by being a condescending, and at times hostile, douche. Connoisseurus Rexes are typically considered too annoying for actual friendship.

Get the Condom Connoisseur mug.A person with little experience, background or training who suddenly starts to enjoy high-brow, high-margin items of questionable quality. Includes people who buy artwork on cruise ships, $10,000 home theatre systems and Hummers. They also drink wines costing $50+ per bottle without ever drinking the $10+ ones and buy athletic gear engineered for professional athletes for a half-mile stroll. While they profess their love of the "finer things in life," a merchant laughs all the way to the bank.

2) He uses as a Facebook profile picture a $200k watch only he and 5 other "horology connoisseurs" know or care about. Other pictures in his gallery might consist of scenery from that time he went to Switzerland.
3) His friends consist of other "Horology connoisseurs" ( and only Horology connoisseurs) you might know of ( and hate seeing everywhere)
4) He mostly comments on posts that contain watches or brands he likes to bash on.
