I just added to the collection today, so I thought I would take a group shot.

Nicely done, Dan. Huge congrats on the Speedmaster.
Any chance of a wrist shot? What's your thoughts on it against the Daytona? There are still 3 empty slots - what are you going to do about it |

There is definitely a difference. Sits lower but the dial is bigger. Haven't worn the Speedy long enough to say much more yet, but I do like it and I think it looks gorgeous or I wouldn't have gotten it in the first place. Still Luv the Daytona though. I had many more empty slots not long before this. Its a work in progress, but I am making progress. As always I do have some ideas. There is so little time, but so many real nice watches.

Thanks Mike, I'm new at this but I am trying. I just get the ones I like.
Thanks, I have a few single boxes,but to be honest I kind of enjoy getting them out every once and awhile and winding them.

Thank you.
Thanks John. Anythings possible, but I would probably get a Patek first. Thanks Thomas

Great collection Dan! The Speedmaster is a fantastic addition....congratulations. Whilst they have the same complication I think the Daytona and Speedmaster are miles apart. I actually find that my Speedy has tended to compete more with my SS subs than Daytona in the rotation....The Daytona (especially now I have the black dial also) is a very different mood watch for me... because of the finish on the watch it wears more classy than the sub/speedy. Will be interesting to see how you feel.
