Love the cushion case
3670A. (16 pieces)
5950A. (10 pieces several dials and metal combos. )
5940G (A favorite in my collection, unlike the above, commonly available at a discount)

3940 saatchi had my eye on this one for a while, would love to have one come into reach.

Greatest steel sports watch.
5711

Most wonderful dial, the Mona Lisa
3417 Amagnetic.

The perpetual calendar chrono’s are nice but I cannot resolve the practicality of a perpetual calendar with a manual wind movement. contrarily I find a manual wind movement with a chrono is perfection.

These are my favorites, nothing crazy, but the daily wearers I think are terrific:

5127 Calatrava (screw down crown)
5227 Calatrava (dress watch so big it can go casual, with a hunters back)
5712 Nautilus (power indicator and off-kilter dial)
5167A Aquanaut (beautifully finished watch I can swim in)
5970 Perpetual Chronograph (gotta go with one big one)

Because all of us who replied aren’t obsessed with the 5711 and hence we are all wrong and he’s right!

My dream top 5 at the moment.
( from the last 5 years)

- 5968G-10
- 5711/110P
- 5131/1P
- 5170P-001
- 5204R-011

and with top 6
5935A

All have something special and would fit together and have a variety
complications, stones, rare handcrafted, steel, rose gold, platinum, white gold
and all are nearly not easy to get or are discontinued.

This would be my dream collection, but first I have to play in the lottery
Or second idea: someone wants me as a son ? —> Christmas is coming soon
