Icon12 Completing my trio - can you guess?

Hi All,

Many of us have enjoyed Jorge's journey from many watches to 3. I have had a similar journey, owning 20+ different pieces in the last few years and of late worked to create a collection of 3 that would allow me to just enjoy and appreciate without seeking...

2 down, 1 to go:

1. Patek 5712/1a
2. FPJ Bleu
3. Collecting today.....!

Any guesses before i post pics of all 3?

Warm regards, and thanks to all for sharing and Jorge - dedicated to you!
GeeAy.

Thanks GeeAy, I guess is amazing that you are all the way in South Africa and you know about my WIS road to 3 watches and you are now dedicating the post to me, I feel flattered, Thanks I just hope it works for you as well
Funny thing that I had in my stable the first two watches you listed at some point.

Now my guess for a 3rd watch would be a Sub


Note: I think I know why you posted here

Sorry Ian, posted in PP as I guess I feel most at home there! Most of my last purchases have been PP as well, and my #1 still is. I've been moved to general thread now :(
Will post #3 by tomorrow.

Of course they did, I think your post was fine there. Who cares, I'll wait patiently for the final choice

Assumed the PP connection is the 5712 and was perfectly fine where you started. Look forward to the final one!

No idea what it could be... an AP jumbo? A JLC reverso?

Really curious to know though!

AP15202 (well done Tom!)

So that's my Blue Trio, lets see if the passion and appreciations remains.

And yes Jorge, even here in Africa, your journey is shared.

Warm regards to all.

Awesome GeeAy, for getting "The Genta choice" !!
You needed a Sporty choice to balance the FP Journe ! Because the Nautilus is an elegant sporty but not as sporty as the Royal Oak.
Well thought ! Good choice
Congrats from Ohio to South Africa. !! (Even though, I am originally from Guatemala Lol)

Kudos !!
