Watch collection, vintage and modern.

Hello guys,
Hope you all are having a great 2020! I wanted to share my current collection. I will be adding only one watch in 2020 (hopefully) so if you guys could add only one watch, what would that watch be given what I already have? Your budget is 15k thanks guys!

Nice collection! How about a 6 digit Rolex for something different?

With a 15k budget I'd either go 1680 Sub Date, 16800 matte Sub Date, 16760 GMT II or bump up a little bit more for a 116520 Daytona, black or white dial.

Well done so far!

I think I’d try to find a Calatrava in that price range.

116520 would be a good pickup

What a great collection. I would add a VC Overseas, pre-owned if need be.

16234 and 16570 are wonderful, as are 16710 and 5513.


I'd buy 116600. The last Sea Dweller with the original design and ceramic bezel.

I'd be adding a trinity brand, there's good deals to be had right now on those too! Awesome collection nonetheless!

obviously at retail it's a no brainer, but a daytona would be a nice way to add a little variety.

Nice collection. My vote would be a Day Date with a president bracelet. Mixes up what you currently have slightly. Obviously $15k won’t but a brand new one but a 5 digit should fit in around there.

Good advise, I looked at some day dates with the bracelet but it wasn’t my style, decided to just get a 1803 head only. I found the Buckley dial, at first I wasn’t sure but man I love that watch!

Thanks! I like some on leather, specially the ones that are gold or have a gold bezel.

Nice collection. I'd go with a Daytona or a green sub to add some color.

Nice collection. A LVc or SS SkyDweller in Blue. Of course, the stars would have to align to acquire a SkyDweller at MSRP.

A SkyDweller would be amazing! None of my watches came from AD’s so I guess that would be very unlikely, unless I sold one of my Rolexes which I am not planning on doing. I have been looking at some holy trinity watches and found some within my budget.

This is a nice collection, you have got a nice taste and yes! Daytona will add a bit of variety to your impressive collection.
