A Lange & Sohne Saxonia thin
Jaeger Le Coultre Ultra master thin
H Moser & Cie Endeavor small seconds
Longines Heritage Classic
Laurent Ferrier Galet Classic

In rose gold where applicable

I don’t own any but have tried on all except the Galet. One of these will be the last added to the collection.

Ones I own or ones I want? I want a Journe Chronometre Bleu. And a Rolex Cellini Moonphase. And any Patek Perpetual. That'll do it for me. I don't own a dress watch because I live a casual lifestyle.

- Patek Calatrava

- Rolex DD40 YG
- CB Bleu
- JLC Master perpetual calendar YG

I’m not generally a fan of non-round watches (sorry Cartier and JLC).

Lange : Lange 1
Urban Jurgensen : 1140L
Moser : Endeavor Center Seconds
Patek : 5205R
Breguet : 7027, 7147, 7787, 7137, 5207 (honestly, Breguet own the dress space IMHO)

I own the Lange and Moser and have my eye on the Breguet 7027.

No particular order. I've tried on all of these and I prefer non-round dress watches for some reason.

1. ALS 1815 Chrono RG (I think this one is under $50k new)
2. Cartier Tank Americaine SS
3. FPJ Chronometre Souvrain
4. VC 1921
5. Cartier Drive Extra Flat
