I'd get a BLRO and a gold sub of either WG or YG flavor. And then...I don't need a third watch. If there's any left over, I'll take the kids out for ice cream.

116719BLRO - $28k
Omega Speedmaster Moonwatch Dark Side Of The Moon - $8k
Breitling Navitimer Cosmonaute 18kt - $13k
$49k total

Actually, I probably wouldn't buy any of those watches. They're all on my "yeah, I'd like to have them" list, but $50k is a ton of cash to tie up in watches all at once. I know, I know, you're looking at my signature line and I've got some cash tied up in my watches as it is. But most of them were acquired over time (although, to be fair, I did go on a watch buying spree over the last 18 months of so). $50k is a lot for all at once. You know, assuming you're living regular life.

Now things would be different if cash wasn't a concern - my powerball wish list includes: 326138, 116618LB, 116719BLRO, plus all of the ones above. And a bunch of real estate.

2) 116618LB (21k-22k 2nd hand)
3) BLNR or 6 digit Explorer 2 OR an Omega PO

My friend I was last week in Madrid and I go to a retailer who are sell Patek Phillipe and price list are 22000€. They tell me Patek will rise the price this year with 20% so the watch will be 26500€.
Also if you look on Patek site it’s 21900 CHF.
Price is this but the wait is around 4-5 years.
