To answer the question, I’d own a DIFFERENT version of ones that
I own or have owned. The different version would be

1. 124270
2. 126710 BLRO
3. 126610

Spoonage · 14 November 2023, 02:00 AM

Hmmm. If I can't have the same watches I currently own, and could only use the proceeds from the watches I sold... I would have to go:

Vintage BLRO to replace BLNR
Fifty Fathoms to replace 114060
Calatrava with the remaining proceeds

Ichiran · 14 November 2023, 02:20 AM

Very easy. Rexhep Rexhepi Chronomètre Contemporain II, Roger Smith Series 5 and Simon Brette Chronomètre Artisans.

Nothing with a 32xx movement

Joking aside,

115609 steel panda dial.
116600 ceramic SD4k
16710 with 3286

JJGreen · 14 November 2023, 03:03 AM

Oh man....but I like (some of) my watches now.

Daytona 116500 white dial...really all you need, but I would wear it in the pool, vacation, and a ton elsewhere too.

Patek 5800...the comfortable every day watch

Movado M95 maybe...sort of dressy, but I would also wear it often

RAS888 · 16 November 2023, 08:59 PM

Wishlist:
1. Playtona
2. RG green dial President 41mm
3. RG meteorite dial Daytona on oysterflex

Driver8 · 16 November 2023, 09:15 PM

I'd go for -

116600 (SD4K) - I had a chance to buy one at RRP from an AD but felt it was "too small" at the time.

116619LB (WG blue dial Sub) - This is my all time favourite PM piece that I also regret never buying at RRP when I had a chance.

214270 (39mm Explorer) - Best ever iteration of the Exp I IMO, and another I missed at RRP - I told my AD I wanted one about a week before it was discontinued - that I still intend to pick up.

I stretched the rules a bit. I don’t consider a solid gold Submariner to be the same watch as a stainless steel one.

Selling my collection wouldn't buy these three watches, but I'll answer your question by listing the three-watch collection I would like to have (and none of which I currently do have):

36mm Explorer (not TT)
Vacheron Overseas Dual Time (black dial)
Lange 1 Moonphase Platinum

Bmats · 18 November 2023, 12:33 AM

Patek 5726/1a
LV sub (but I’d keep my BLRO instead if I could)
Vacheron moonphase retrograde in WG

Been there done that, IMO:

Never out of style, always relevant.
