Could make a perfect 2 watch collection if you ask me...

Simple and complicated. Two watches is all one may need. What say you?

Have a good week!

Absolutely my friend.

I believe that (as an enthusiast) we all at some point tend to start gravitating towards that thought process!

Especially when those two particular references are on the table!

If it’s just two for sure that is a quite an unbeatable pair. However personally I would like a rose or yellow gold case with a brown strap to match with the bespoken brown shoes and belts as well as for those occasions where humility and understated is outweighed by elegance and celebration? Perhaps a 39mm dufourograph? :)

We all know things come best in 3s

Both of those watches are ridiculous.

Yes!!! A super two watch collection.

And really, do you need any more than that? Do any of us? I continue to think that less is more these days. Maybe a third as a true “beater” for the occasion where you want to have no concerns at all about potentially damaging your watch.

After all, we can only wear one at a time.

If I were just going to ever have 2, I would probably have a PP PCC and a SS Rolex as well.

Two beauties for sure.

I think I’d need a rotating bezel on one of my two though

Yes. That could be a perfect two watch collection...
But ...

We agree those are two magnificent specimens from two iconic brands and arguable could stand toe to toe with any of their perceived competition... as a similarly afflicted friend, when you wake up tomorrow will it still make sense?


Great duo Thomas!

Totally! This duo represents, in a way, the pinnacle of horology!

If one wanted a two watch collection, those two are difficult to argue with.
