I’m not sure I’d call it a collection per se, but I have 3 nice watches.

1. 116500 Daytona in white dial
2. BLNR
3. Gen 2 Vacheron Overseas Chrono in blue dial

If I’m being honest to myself, the Vacheron is my favorite. But if I had to keep just one, it would probably be the BLNR...

Well, that would be impossible to choose. I love all my watches fairly equally...and once I stop loving something, out it goes.

I've thought a little about this, though, and I could see one of these two being "the one" if it ever came down to it.

Good question, I currently own the following 3 watches and love each one of them.

1. Omega SM300
2. Rolex BLNR
3. Rolex Daytona Ceramic White

Out of the above 3, I would pick the BLNR. It's the most versatile, has a date function. Easy to read and just looks good and appropriate in most any situation. Love the pop of blue.

Very hard choice

Very nice I love how each tells a story

116610LV, 116613LB, 216570, 116400GV.

My favourite is the Hulk. Or the Blusey. No, it's the Polar, although the Z-Blue is my favourite too.

Oh bugger! I knew this would happen.

I'll have to get back to you.....

From my collection below, my favorite reference is the BLNR. It has sentimental value as I purchased it on my birthday in 2016:



All my other references and future incomings, I've wanted and am grateful to own but the BLNR is the one currently I tend to gravitate to (this might change)

It's a tough choice; I'll go with the Platona!!! I decided to wear my SD4K for a change the other day; it lasted a day.

Put a white Daytona 500 in that empty slot and you will have one awesome sport collection.

Current favourite as it has always been...SubC date. Hard to top this one, all watches I add after the SubC only fill gaps that aren't really there in the collection.
Ditto. Couldn't have said it better myself. Subs rock, period.

Lol I wish ... Been waiting for three years (like a lot of others). I am hoping in the new year, although my local AD who sourced me the black dial/Pepsi, said unofficially if I want the White dial, it would be at least two years with them (which I am fine with).

But, I have a deposit at another AD (going on 3 years) with whom I purchased my BLNR from, so hoping they'll come through in 2019.

Exp II Polar 216570
SkyD Blue
Drive de Cartier
Breitling Steelfish (later arrow tip)

Favorite and most wear is the Exp II it’s just perfect imo. Yes, I need a chronograph. Working on it and aiming to get it done in less than the plural years ;)

Enjoy all mine pretty much equally, they're all different enough for some great variety, and my Speedy for other days.

Just have to add the 50th Sea Dweller and I'll be good for Rolex....
