My senpai 先輩 has 2 of that.

Royal Oak Jumbo 15202. But for me, mere mortal unobtainable at MSRP.

Overseas . . . and will wait years for 5711 at MSRP.


(But perhaps, 5711 at MSRP will never happen. )

If we are talking popular/sport/modern models...

Patek 5712 blue
AP ROC Panda 26331 (because I have one so I am 1/3 of the way there...! :))
VC dual time 7900v white

If I was to start from scratch and money no object, different story... There would have to be some real hair horology in there. Need more time to think that through...

5711/1R - Date only
326938 - Dual timezone + month + date
26331BA - Chrono

Think those would be the ones to own if I was to own anything from AP, PP, Rolex. Already own 2, so 1 more to go which I have an eye for.

As much as I love the 15202- it’s a PIta to wind and to me having both 15202 and 5711 is abit duplicative. I recently got into more offshores to mix things up..

These 3.

(I would love a blue 5711, but zero interest in paying market price for one)

Grand complications

That’s what makes these particular watch makers special - to me.

My holy trinity would look different.

Patek, Lange, FPJ at the moment.
