Great thread!
I’ve been enjoying the simplicity and symmetry of no-date divers over the past week or so. The Fifty Fathoms is the one interloper with a date, there for its symmetry nonetheless.
My team:
Still, that date is so discreet it’s hardly visible😉

Agreed, That floating date window, with its black background is really unobtrusive in my opinion.

In my case, my rotation varies, week to week, depending on my whim. With about 75 or so (number changes, weekly) wrist watches to choose from, why limit myself?

Anything in my accumlation is always fair game. Today is a Hamilton Field Mechanical on its newly-acquired bracelet.

I’d have to say my rotation varies from week to week and even month to month as well. But Spruce asked for what was in our focus right now. His request aligned with just one of my many and varied whims. Many varied paths to the top of this hill, for sure!

Absolutely, first time for months, if not years, I’ve not been wearing an Omega. Previously, I’d have a couple in the team but I thought I’d put ‘currently’ in the heading and in the squad selection.

OP's question made me realize how much my rotation has contracted lately.



The speedy gets 90% of the action. The Apnea is for powerlifting (highly legible interval rest timer). The Seiko and the Bulova get worn when I'm chasing our toddler around in the sprinklers. I do have a Sinn 103 that I wear at work a lot, but it is waiting to be send off for repair.

And to think, I used to find Speedys boring. The forum really rubbed off on me.

Current summer squad.... mix of diving vs racing, bracelet vs rubber/canvas. The recent vintage acquisitions haven't quite made the cut yet.

Nice thread.
Here is my current lineup.
Speedy and Explorer share most of the wrist time at the moment.
Due to the current lifestyle, the Reverso gets sadly very little wear. However i enjoyed it this weekend for an evening out.
The 2254 Seamaster is the watch that started my watch enthusiasm so i put it on every now and then, especially when i do some mountain or sweeming activity.
Certina is my most recent aquisition, and i am completely in love. It made me keep an eye on the local marketplace for more Certinas. I believe it wont be my last one 😀

this summer the work watch as usual has been my titan SMP, Zenith is the only newcomer and is really nice on the arm, my black connie got a new flatlink and is absolutely wonderful, but gold on the arm sometimes can give extra feeling during free summer evenings! 😀

The Zenith Time Command is a lovely watch to wear, very distinctive, different and stylish, and quite a hefty, quality chunk of a watch, congrats. Bear in mind though that they are difficult to repair, I had a black dial one that broke, sent it to Zenith and they couldn't repair it, so I passed it on.

A great team.... I never tend to change straps (an OCD issue I think) but that 2254 looks great. What is the strap / buckle combo you have?
Thanks

bought Zenith for a small penny as defective, it turned out that one battery was upside down! 👍

Perfect timing, just place my last 3 back in the dugout(safe deposit box) and called up these 3 for the next 3 months. My new rotation plan is to wear each for a month, return and call out another 3. From oldest to youngest: Tudor 94300 exotic dial, Seamaster 300m and last but not least Tudor GMT

Just to make clear, you will need to use slightly curved springbars, or apply a bit of force to fit the normal ones into the lugholes.
I already wrote this somewhere before.

Or, if you choose, the "correct" rubber straps are still available.
