Collection Pic

You can no longer ask what new watch will I get to fill the last space. Last space is filled.

By the way it's the oldest one in the group.

Thank you. Rolex is my favorite brand, but I guess that is pretty obvious.

Thanks Thomas, and I would like another vintage, an AP and a Patek, and a..........................

So many nice nice watches, but so little time.

Thanks Cru. I no longer worry too much about it to be honest. Every once in awhile I end up going back and taking a different watch. One way or another I end up being fortunate enough to wear a really great watch.

Veerrryyy nice Dan

I think everyone would just love to be faced with that conundrum every morning..... but if you're like me, it just adds too many minutes to the getting ready process. So now I decide at night and wake up each morning with a different looking wrist

So what's your favourite for an evening out? and for a day at the office?

Thank you.

My daily usually end up being one of these:
GMTCII, Sub LV, Speed Master, or Pam000

I then have those which I normally rotate among for Saturday:
DJII, SS Daytona

Then on Sunday:
JLC MC Geographic, JLC MC Calendar, or IWC

Now I have another which will be used somewhere in rotation.
Red Sub

Nights out, depend on what I am wearing, and what is happening.

Sounds a nice rotation

Mine also now includes a recent red sub acquisition (full package open 6's).

My week is usually GMTIIC G/S, 63 Explorer 5500, 69 Speedy, Breitling G/S Nav and Cartier G/S Santos.

Weekend goes more vintage so 70 Red sub, 67 black face Seamaster, 64 Spaceview, 58 omega small seconds, Smiths military plus a few Seiko beaters if anything like gardening or working on the old TR6 is required !
