A daily and occasional 2 watch collection- what’s your choice?
Hi all,
I am fortunate enough to have a large varied collection of great timepieces but I could be happy with just these 2. They are from fantastic manufacturers, in house movements, rare in the wild and are sublime. A 38.5mm rose gold Lange 1 moon phase and 41mm titanium Zenith Defy Classic. Which 2 could work for you?

Love that Zenith! I’m thinking of getting one with the bracelet. Such an underrated piece. Cheers!

It is superb! I have the blue rubber strap for it as well and may also add the titanium bracelet. The dial really pops and is a very underrated timepiece which is so comfortable on the wrist - a perfect daily wear.

Those look great!
I'm pretty new into collecting watches but I am fortunate enough to currently own a couple of "common" pieces that I enjoy. I'm very happy with my Datejust (126200) and my Omega Seamaster 300m (latest model on rubber). |

Wow, beautiful duo ! You definitely have it covered.
For me, I have the same watch, just different dial colors for now. Breitling Superoceans. I will be adding something different hopefully by the end of this summer. |

IWC Mark XV on bracelet for daily and Patek 3998P (or, less likely, 5711 blue) for special.

This year, I set a goal to downsize my collection, currently at 15 pieces. I am not making any progress but discovered I can get very creative making internal justifications that prevent downsizing activity.
Much respect for those that can narrow the field to two watches, even if only in theory. I hope to one day arrive at the same spot

Beautiful duo!
I'd probably go with an Explorer II for daily and a JLC Master of some sort for work/dress occasions. I currently do not own either of those but I pine... |

I completely understand- also have a similar sis collection and it is so difficult to sell but easy to buy. Some really get very little wrist time but they all tell a story and I must have some emotional connection with them even though they are just watches! Or maybe I am very greedy!

For daily wear, a Submariner Date. For occasional wear, a Laurent Ferrier Galet Micro-Rotor.
