How much lottery did I win? Enough to call Dufour and convince Rolex with a few million to make me a unique piece? I'll take a cosmodaydatedweller - and naming it C-3D.
No? Then I'm callin Stern for unique 5208.

Platona for me.

If it was a big win however then it would be a RM Massa.

White gold Rolex Day-Date 40 with fluted bezel for me.

Unfortunately without a lottery win there is no way on earth I'd ever be in a position or even willing to spend £25k on a watch.

Also with my lottery winnings I might throw in a Cellini Time, just because I can

Sure I could live with those 3 & not want anything else. I'd source the 3 best on the market ��

I assume would be enough to treat myself with like a PP 5164,

I don't think I'd go all crazy with like a RM 27-02, Greubel Forsey, or ALS Zeitwerk Striking Time

Yes, this is a single watch. - a little large for dress - so my "go to" tool watch. It does everything except count my daily steps.

Off the top of my head I think I'd like a Serti dial GMT.

after winning big time lottery money, I would look forward to never having to wear a watch again...in a locale where time stands still.
