Not exactly waiting, but I’m trying to decide just how much I want ‘floating chronograph’ 16520 Daytona.

Ohh, and a Speedmaster Snoopy 1 to complete the set.

The only thing I’m supposedly waitlisted for is a sub but I’m happy with my Exp II so unlikely I’d go ahead with that if it materialised.

I am waiting to see where prices go on something with a bit of colour - the VC overseas/ blue dial if prices continue softening. No hurry though.

Black dial Exp II/ white dial speedmaster/ blue dial overseas would do me just fine as a flexible threesome alongside a g-shock. Gives a bit of diversity in brands, colours and styles while all having good history and being wearable daily. I have no need for dozens of watches and that’s three I love.

I’d never say never to adding a couple of classic 5 digits along the way though if I happened to come across something with the right condition and price.

Think I am done. Very content with my one watch. Starting to think I might not get another until mine is due for service in many years from now.

Just a GMT BLRO (happy with either bracelet). Small spend history so it may take a while.

Very happy with my GMT LN and Exp 36 so not super desperate for it.

Nothing form an AD but am searching for the right example of a YG Rolex Submariner, either Black or Blue dial. Just waiting to find the right example.

I’m also am really looking forward to purchasing a Kuoe (Japanese micro brand) Panda that’s been sold out. It’s rereleasing this month online. I went to their boutique in Japan and had an awesome experience with some people I love. Happy to give them my business again.

How about ya’ll, any watch on the horizon?

Ahhh, a true Panda I presume?! Excellent watch!! I believe I am at the end of my watch buying after 60 years of collecting. Got almost everything I wanted and at some point realized how grateful I am for all I have….

Yes, that one. The 2 local dealers never have one. I was contacted about one right after I had foot surgery and couldn't make it to the store. :( Haven't heard from anyone since. I stopped by an AD yesterday. They had 3 red bezel examples, but no monochrome. The fit is amazing for my 7.5" wrist.

A few preowned ones around....

I have nothing "on order" for me at the AD but will probably add a DJ31 for my lady soon. Thinking of making a couple trades however.

Wishing you good luck. I've had the OP36 Turquoise for ~18 months now and it's a nice piece. Side by side prefer it to the busier celebration dial.

For me, it's more a question of what I'm going to have to get rid of if, and when, that magical must have appears.

BB58 GMT on a five link bracelet (Jubilee) with an Opaline dial. Would trade my Air King 126900 for that.

I am waiting for a few pieces after placing deposits - Sylvain Pinaud Origine, Roger Smith Series 5, Simon Brette Chronomètre Artisans, Kari Voutilainen Vingt-8 and a few others that are under embargo. Hopefully can get the Remy Cools Tourbillon Atelier from my AD too *pray*.

Patiently waiting for an Oysterflex Daytona in yellow gold or white gold.

126518 (golden and bright black, golden with black counter rings, or intense black with champagne) or a 126519 (steel and bright black).

Based on life circumstances I don't have funds for another watch for a very long time now. I'd love a 5326P Patek Salmon dial but that would require a trade that i don't want to make ever
