Collection expanded during lockdown

Last year I consolidated my collection by selling off close to 10 stainless steel pieces to add several PM pieces. I wanted to keep the number to 5-6. But that was changed during the recent lockdown as I added some more pieces both SS and PM. Out of plan but perhaps same as many people who are also buying during this time.

These include the new purchases. A few PM pieces are not here though.

Big fan of the milgaus then? i have just bought the air king a couple of days ago, its got the same case iit wears nice.

I have been thinking about doing this recently with my collection have a similar amount of steel watches as you described. Curious to know how you went about doing this, did you trade them/sell them etc etc?

Is it just angles or is the Milgauss that much bigger than the Daytona?

Great lineup!! Love love the 3 Milgauss models. I’d probably have added the GV personally instead of the Non GV black dial but great collection all the same.

Both are 40mm but I think the Milgauss could appear a little bigger than the Daytona due to its smooth bezel. It's also a bit thicker, but very comfortable.

Thank you I actually had the GV black dial earlier but sold it. It is also beautiful.

Thank you. I sold my sub, GMTs... but keep the Milgauss. Great reference.
