One of the more tasteful Collections ive seen. Based off of that I would consider you to be a sane and well balanced individual. Unlike all the other Rolex bros who, out of 12 watches have 12 rolexes. Those I would not hire or trust one bit.

well that's incredibly nice of you to say... I don't know if my wife would agree with you on the sane and well-balanced part but that's another story :rofl:

Thanks! It’s from Wolf—the “Viceroy” 15 watch box.

My very modest 3 piece collection.

I’ll get a 4th watch sometime in the next 12 months, but for now, this is it.

Thank you very much. Most likely a silver dial Datejust 41 with a fluted bezel and jubilee bracelet.

I definitely want a silver or white dial since I have 3 dark color watches.

Cartier Santos or Tank could be a possibility, but I run and hot cold with Cartier. I could go months really liking Cartier, and then I could go months not liking them at all. Same goes for Nomos.

Any idea what case style is that? To my knowledge, GS’s design team has them arranged in classes, such as 44GS.

I believe this watch doesn't conform to any of GS case design like 44GS, 57GS or 62GS. I have no idea what case is this too :cheers:

[QUOTE=jbsmith;11769841]Great collection! There's that row of Daytonas. [emoji106] How much wrist time does the aquanaut get?

Thank you, wear it a lot less than Daytonas.

that’s a 1988 Hamilton military watch—
ref. mil-w-46374d.

in case you’re interested, this is a good primer on this and several related references (though the prices they mention seem to be a bit out of date, sadly):

Cool (both the watch and article)! Love that style, my only disappointment is that the majority of the current, sub-$600 watches modeled after it have grown to at least 38mm, or are quartz.

Closest I've found are pieces from MWC and Timex at 36, but know little about the former (and too much about the latter, lol).

totally agreed. but these 70s and 80s ones are still pretty available if you poke around! prices a bit higher than what’s referenced in the article but I reckon should still be under 1,000.

My collection ever growing

Greenwood_ 8 November 2021 09:13 PM

This is my favourite thread on TRF - love seeing everyone’s collections.

I’m hoping to swap out the Tudor for a BLRO in the next couple of years, and then add a PM piece further down the track.
