Land,Air, Sea and Dress
I am deliberately trying to acquire watches that I won’t see everyday.
I added the Cartier today and I’m loving it. Waiting on a Rolex BLRO to replace the Tudor GMT. The Omega is beautiful in person but it’s a test case at this point. I’m hopping to finalize this foursome and retire from acquiring and just enjoy wearing. Thoughts or suggestions? |

The santos was actually a pilot’s watch originally.
If i were to get a dress watch, i would go thin and in leather. Precious metal if possible. In any event, you have a fab four. |

Great lineup. I picked up the Santos recently, but unfortunately I picked up the medium which was a tad too small. So I traded it for your exact blue SMP Diver 300. Excellent taste!

Excuisite! I do say the Cartier is dressy, though you could also say it’s another air considering the Santos was the first pilots watch! Just a fun historical fact, though; you, sir, most definitely have land, air, sea, and dress but with a twist caused by the great implications of having one of the most classic pieces in history. Well done!

Fantastic 4, enjoy them in best of health. I think you will like the omega. I tried it recently and was so close on pulling the trigger but backed off as I had other priority.

Congrats on your new Cartier! I just bought the same watch with the new blue face. I’m waiting on my Daytona C to fill the land “void”. The new AP 38mm Chrono also may be a contender. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

That's a solid collection. If the Omega falls out of favor I'd look seriously at a Sub. It's the quintessential Rolex and can be worn with anything like the rest of your collection. Having had a boat load of references, it's still my favorite. And I think you'll find a lot of others here that'll agree.

I recently bought the older version of the Omega thinking it probably wouldn't stick. Turns out I love it almost as much as my SeaDweller. And being blue it's different enough and I love the hands.
Although the land sea air thing is kinda fun, it too restrictive for me. |

I really wanted to go with something different because so many people have the Sub were I live but I imagine that will be were I end up. |

That’s a very solid and versatile collection. I love the Cartier being a dress watch.

While they wouldn't be the most unique choices as far as watch enthusiasts are concerned, out in the wild you are going to be hard pressed to find someone else wearing any of those watches.
I do see Batmans out in the wild but again its not like a Sub where they are everywhere. |
