One brand - decade by decade

Given the wonderful collections that members have, I think this could make an interesting thread. Photos of watches from one brand, one watch per decade, from your collection past or present.

Here is an example using Eterna watches from my collection, I made a collage to clearly illustrate the idea. When preparing this, it was very tempting to include more than one watch per decade, but I forced myself to curate the selection.

As I was thinking about this, I was a little surprised to find that I struggled to assemble a collection of watches from one brand spanning 5 consecutive decades in my collection. It seems that I have many watches from the 50s and 60s, but my collection is much sparser in the 30s, 40s, 70s, and 80s.

I think you really encapsulated the Zeitgeist of all those decades perfectly. 👍

I love that sequence, Luigi, all the way back to the 20s!

Here is my Longines collage, not nearly as extensive, but different than yours, so adds some variety.

Lovely collections and great idea !

I want to play but somehow I do not know which one to select so I’m twisting the rules a bit - Hope you don’t mind :

Pair of 40s



Pair of 50s




Triple pair from the 60s :



A pair of early 70s




One Watch from the mid 80s



And a jump to 10years ago




I wish I could add a T17, a CH33.3 to start from the 30s… and wish I could enrich the 40s with a 30T2RG 😀
