White gold gmt, sub and DJ 41

christopheran · 24 April 2018, 09:57 PM

My collection is the following:
116710BLNR - My GMT
116500 white - My chronograph
126600 (I’m still on the hunt for this one.) - My diver

The boss thinks more than 3 at a time is excessive.

OmegaJJH · 24 April 2018, 10:01 PM

36mm YG DD
SS Daytona
SS Sub

Think that would cover all the bases.

jrs146 · 24 April 2018, 10:03 PM

116500 white dial, 16610LV, 16710 Pepsi/Coke (2 inserts but one watch). Well under 50k but I could easily stop there for the sake of this question.

Lange 1 WG ~20k

Rolex 16710 ~10k

JayB · 24 April 2018, 10:38 PM

Watch 1

White gold Day-Date 40 with Dark Rhodium Stripe Motif dial

Watch 2 and 3

Who cares, with the DD40 I don't need any other watches

Nycturbovr6 · 24 April 2018, 11:03 PM

DD40 25k
Ss Daytona 15k
Hulk 10k

Raku · 24 April 2018, 11:10 PM

Lange 1 (as dress watch)
Daytona and BLNR (as sport watches)

dmash · 24 April 2018, 11:10 PM

I find it quite odd how many people put Lange in this thread, which means they’re obviously big fans of their designs, yet it seems nobody actually owns one. Weird...

dannyp · 24 April 2018, 11:21 PM

At market prices:

Aquanaut
Calatrava
Exp. I or DJ 36

Or

Aquanaut
Royal Oak 37mm (not blue)
Exp. I

At MSRP:

Aquanaut
Nautilus
OP 36

bellesdad0417 · 24 April 2018, 11:35 PM

I think mine would be

1: WG 116719 BLRO
2: 126600 SD43
3: 214270 MK II

I already have both 2 and 3

jay_kay · 24 April 2018, 11:40 PM

$50,000 USD with current exchange rate is £35,800 GBP.

I believe I'd just about get a 116520, 16610LV,126600 and a 16710.

This would make so much sense for me.

I'm 32. Very relaxed (jeans and polo shirt) work environment.

Wools · 25 April 2018, 12:16 AM

Sorry RW, but I'll break the rules a bit here as you made no mention of GS.

Rolex Submariner Date - £6k
Grand Seiko Snowflake - £6K
Patek Philippe Annual Calendar (White Gold) - £35K

That would be my 3 choices for £55K!

WEST HAM ROLEX · 25 April 2018, 12:23 AM

Daytona C - black face

Daytona C - white face

SD43

Ungucpho · 25 April 2018, 12:29 AM

I probably would come up with the same 3

This except I'd go ice/plat Daytona!

dafuture · 25 April 2018, 12:34 AM

Patek Philippe Aquanaut 5167 - $25k
Rolex Daytona 116500LN (White) - $18.5K
Rolex Milgauss Z-Blue 116400GV - $6.5k

Three of my favorites.

codecow · 25 April 2018, 12:35 AM

Lange 1815 chronograph, used ~$38k
Rolex 16710 Pepsi, used ~$9k
Omega Speedmaster "Man on the Moon", used ~$3k

I am one of the people who did this. It's because they offer good value for money in decoration in particular in the manual chronographs.

If you don't care about money suddenly like you don't have an arbitrary $50k limit, then the design comes more into play (for me).

What would you do?

Easy:
1. Rose Gold Daytona with oysterflex ($23k pre owned)
2. AP 15400 blue dial ($17,800 new)
3. Hulk ($9-10K)

Alternatively:
1. SS Daytona C $12,400 sans mark up
2. AP 15202 blue dial $22,700 sans mark up
3. Hulk
- with approx. $5k to spare or to use towards 1 and 2 (assuming you pay a bit of a premium)

_speedmaster_ · 25 April 2018, 01:06 AM

This is actually harder than I would've thought. Especially since I'm not a giant Patek, AP, Lange or Breguet fan. But, here goes:

116610LV = ~$9k
JLC Tribute to Deep Sea Alarm = ~$10k
Lange 1 Blue face (38.5mm) = ~$30k (after a modest discount)

ericsku87 · 25 April 2018, 01:10 AM

Rolex Sub ND, AP RO 15400, JLC Reverso (whichever variant makes up for the balance)

Bt122 · 25 April 2018, 01:19 AM

Secondary prices, I’d buy AP 15400. Daytona c white. Try to squeeze in a sub or a DJ

Where on earth can you get a 5711 for $24K? I'm assuming that's a used white dial?

spndx · 25 April 2018, 03:24 AM

Patek Phillipe 5711

but see the thread title is '$50k for a 3 watch collection', not '$50k to add to your own collection'. That's the reason I find it quite odd, if your collection already exceeds $50k, and the Lange was part of your '3 watch collection' suggestion......why haven't you moved other pieces to add the Lange then?

Not picking an argument, just genuinely curious!
