What would be your perfect 3 watches collection?

1. The day watch: the watch that suits your occupation.

2. Dress-down timepiece: worn everywhere from the beach to the ski slopes or for pottering around in the garden.

3. The dress watch : A watch geared for special occasions and big nights out.

Or if you think a collection should have more than three, comment please!

Welcome to the forums!

Day watch: Rolex 36mm Explorer I
Dress-down: Patek Philippe Nautilus 5726a (on a strap)
Dress watch: Patek Philippe Calatrava 5116R or 5119J, need to see them in real life to see the difference between the white enamel dial and the white lacquer dial.

But I quite honestly really need more than 3 watches

Royalex · 6 October 2013, 08:39 PM

Day watch datejust ii
Dress down. Pam 0
Dress watch any gold Rolex watch

bonbonson · 6 October 2013, 08:42 PM

Super two watch collection.

WhatTheDeuce · 6 October 2013, 08:48 PM

Three should be enough, but it isn't.

benlee · 6 October 2013, 09:03 PM

From my current collection

1) Day Watch : Rolex DJ2

2) Dress Down Piece : Explorer II - nobody ever notice it

3) Dress Watch : AP 15400

I also wish to add the following :

4) Casual Weekend Watch : AP Diver

5) Bang Around Watch ( for crowded place, rough environment ) : Omega PO - tough as Nail!

6) Dress to Impress watch : IWC RG Portuguese ( the most bling )

7) Watch to impress fellow WISer : IWC Portuguese Perpetual Calendar

... That's about it

Welcome to the forum!
Tough call for me with 3...
Day watch - 42mm Exp II
Dress watch - TT sub smurfy
Casual watch - ND Sub C
* Really casual watch - Sinn U1 or G-Shock Mudman

subtona · 6 October 2013, 10:41 PM

Had it for a moment, it was:

SD as daily
Exp II polar as traveler
Patek Aquanaut as 3rd

Each of them could suit any occasion for me.

Now where would the Panerai 127 fit into this mix?

SubTTKky · 6 October 2013, 11:36 PM

Day watch: GMT IIC
Dress down/Travel: Omega Speedy or DSSD (hope to buy a DSSD soon

)
Dress watch: Rolex DD / Daytona

AK797 · 6 October 2013, 11:45 PM
