Really thats a more interesting topic. What are your favorite brands you dont own?

ALS
GS
RM
VC
FPJ

Ill probably finally get a GS at some point. The rest are probably more abstract wants

I Agree. We nearly have the same wants, on your list, delete GS and insert Patek and there is my list. I do know you own a fabulous Patek.

SoTaxLaw · 8 August 2019, 02:25 AM

Sorry Rolex is second to Patek

For me Journe and VC are m fav brands I don’t own and have never owned.

I once had a Lange. They are amazing as well but I missed the warmth of Patek.

Omega for me! I've always loved their watches and this will very likely be my next piece.

My #2 or #3 Brand might just be Rolex.

These get an awful amount of wrist time.

I would agree.
I do have an affinity for Nomos and Stowa too.

Yoda_Eating_Pizza · 8 August 2019, 06:28 PM

Omega.

Also quite fond of Casio. I know there isn't a lot of love for that here, but I wear my watches to make myself happy, not anybody else.

Old Expat Beast · 8 August 2019, 06:34 PM

1. Grand Seiko / Seiko
2. Rolex / Tudor

Catatafish · 8 August 2019, 10:27 PM

Mine is theoretical since I don't have a Rolex yet but I'd have to say Omega then Seiko. Omega for the technology and Seiko for the outright value.

I find this so surprising since you have a large, diverse and valuable collection. Like a car guy with a Ferrari, a 911 and a '67 Mustang whose favorite car is an Audi R8. Not that the ALS/Audi isn't as nice and great as the stuff you own, just that you could easily own one if you wanted to.

part of me doesnt want it. if thats the pinnacle to me then achieving it is going to be anticlimactic.

sometimes its better to admire from afar.

What a nice way to look at things. I agree, completing a wish list, takes away "the wish."

Yes, so do I.

cruise_bone · 9 August 2019, 12:33 AM

I am basing this solely on the brands which I own: Rolex, Breitling, IWC, Omega, Ball.

Based on the above I have to say that my Omega is more in a battle with Rolex for the Top spot and the other three are fighting for third place.

I have an Omega SeaMaster Planet Ocean Good Planet GMT that is every bit as good as my Rolex Explorer II, with the bonus of a ceramic bezel. It is an exceptional watch IMHO and really opened my eyes to Omega.

I do wear the Rolex a little more frequently.

elfutboler · 9 August 2019, 12:49 AM

My personal inclinations:

1- ALS (1815 Calendar incoming next month!)
2- AP
3- Rolex

Burlington · 9 August 2019, 07:34 AM

If I add a second it would be Rolex and a third would be PP.

mattladd@ymail.com · 9 August 2019, 07:41 AM

Breitling/Tag.

Omega

Grand Seiko would be 3rd. Fascinated by the Spring Drive for some reason.

Patek

East Bay Rider · 9 August 2019, 11:35 AM

Omega or IWC are my desired number 2 choice.
At this time my actual ownership number 2 and 3 are Seiko and Citizen.

superstarmar · 11 August 2019, 11:40 AM

Don’t have a #2 yet . No other watch has done it for me
Like a Rolex.

Probably Tudor , Breitling or dare I say Omega.

Laszlo · 11 August 2019, 12:53 PM

Panerai
Seiko

bestwatch101 · 11 August 2019, 08:59 PM

Please you all I need an advise on which Rolex to get

996marty · 11 August 2019, 09:42 PM

Based on my own watches #1 has to be my Rolex gmt and #2 is my old Tudor sub but I have to say I love them more for different reasons.

AK797 · 11 August 2019, 09:44 PM

By money spent, PP then Rolex.

Etschell · 11 August 2019, 09:52 PM

Patek.
