Icon10 Old skool meets new skool

I found this pic on another forum and it looks like this guy has the same taste as me. Makes me sort of want his exact watches to go with mine.




Compare them to my Professionals

Roger,

If you can swing vintage versions of your newer models, I highly recommend it. I have two vintage Subs to go with my two modern Subs, a vintage GMT and a new GMT-II, a vintage Explorer and a new Ex II, and vintage Speedys to go with my modern Speedy. Unfortunately, vintage Daytonas and Sea-Dwellers are selling for more than new models, so I may have to settle for more new models when I have the extra $$$.
