So this may sound obscure, but I think the watches in my collection that have stainless-steel cases and gold-toned markers are my favorite. I think the gold color just pops more on a steel background than matching steel hardware.

Here are a few of mine - all keepers!

My first ever vintage watch:


My 2937 36mm cal 267 daily wearer:



My prized Constellation:



And another shot of it for good measure:



I'd love to see yours (it doesn't have to just be Omega)!

 

One of mine, a cousin Connie, and a favorite too!

 

Only got the one but it definitely the stand out piece in my watch box.

 

Some of mine.

 

From 1955:

 

Oh my God @BenBagbag , that Constellation is phenomenal

 

Bought this years ago, gotta do something with it one day.


On of my favourite watches

 

One of my favorites...

 

I’m with you on this one. Some of mine:

 

My dad's JLC from 1945. A sentimental favorite of mine. I particularly like how the stitching on the strap compliments the rose gold color of the hands and indices. I wore it with a JB Champion bracelet for years, but I believe this relatively new strap compliments the watch even more.
Yes, I agree that SS cases with gold bits rock... I'm enjoying this thread.

 

My favourite - classic 1960s Russian column wheel chrono

 

Great idea for a thread!

 

This 38mm Doxa Valjoux 22 gave me something to do with a two-tone JB Champion bracelet I had lying around.

 

I'm enjoying this thread!

 

My favorite at the moment, got it in November (167.005).

 

And an old favorite:
