I had been looking at several... mainly Jaeger Lecoultre.
I love the Geophysic, Reverso and master hometime.

I'm currently being pulled towards an Omega Speedmaster Professional



An Omega Seamaster Professional 300M, white face with black rubber strap.



As I've just picked up 2 pieces in the last couple of weeks I don't expect to have any more incomings for a while. However, if I really need to scratch an itch a budget option could be a Hamilton Khaki Navy Scuba Auto.

For the longest time, it was this guy! I always had “another watch” (usually Rolex) that I’d loved and wanted, and I finally snapped this guy up in the classifieds here. LOVE IT!

I have those two, except my Seamaster is blue on bracelet. Wearing it now. It's a bit big and heavy and not particularly comfortable for me, but it's really pretty. I wish they still made it in 40mm. The Speedy, which is also 42mm, wears smaller.

However, my next purchase, on order, is a Ball GMT. They are actually making watches now in 40mm, and this one is a - sit down - a blue and black ceramic bezel GMT day date. And around $3200 MSRP, which means that I got it for a lot less. New. It's on pre-order, so hopefully in June. I've never had a Ball before, so we'll see how that goes.

I thought about buying another sub, but dang, they're just so darn expensive!

If I can afford more than Rolex, why exactly would I keep buying Rolex anyway?

Why does Bill Gates buy Porsche and not Bugatti/Koenigsegg/Pagani?

Personal taste. Not always what one can afford that dictates what one likes.

I think we all are. They are really giving the Swiss a run for their money.

Only 100 were made, so finding one would be nothing short of a miracle.

Favourite Non Rolex watch that you could afford.

I don’t think I’d be buying a watch with a seagull tourbillion movement.
