Two spots left, my watch box.

    Here is my humble collection, I know many here have very large ones, and some have a single watch valued at easily more than all mine together. These are mine though and I wanted to share.

    The two spots left I am thinking in my mind what to ad. The Glashutte panorama date (any model) is something I like the look of and would like to ad. I sold my black bay, so thinking of adding a 90s non Tiger Tudor Chrono too. The new Omega Seamaster 300 coaxial is another I look at. Rolex diver is a solid addition, but I don’t see myself wearing one so I’ll not buy one. Seiko vintage Pogue is another I want but I’m leary of service costs and I want to wear and not be concerned with issues. Suggestions of any toolish watch under 6k any collection should have?

    Anyway, I’ve flipped a couple since joining last Dec but right now these are my keepers and I wear them all except for the unworn 1960s Seiko I found in an attic (too small).

    Have you considered Doxa? Great history, usually under $3k, and one of the more unique designs.

    I have looked at Doxa, I like them very much. Once I got the MM300 though, I feel I have one of the very best looking divers at any price point. Doxa is awesome though, a true enthusiast diver.

    I think my next two I’m going to go a bit more upscale. I could use a traditional panda and a lighter faced watch. I would like to get a Tudor in the box again, and perhaps a Zenith or GO.

    Lol, the wife would want to add another closet in retaliation. I’m going to get 10, and then I’ll upgrade or trade up in the future.

    yeah.... thats what I said, fill the one box and then upgrade "only".

    there's now three seriously overflowed boxes that have been upgraded to death!

    now nothing gets into the pocket watch case unless its adjusted to at least five positions and accepted by a major railroad...

    Sounds like a win-win to me. :thumbsup:

    How do you like your IWC? Great pilot chrono.

    AA8EEDB3-6FBD-4A8C-AF11-6B5EDF4A27A2.jpeg A Tudor Big Block would be a great addition... don’t hang around though; prices are following the Tudor Subs.

    Good call, somewhat affordable too. I would wear this as it’s “only an Explorer”

    For some reason the B.B. didn’t do anything for me. I had an eta smiley for a while. If I had the black one I probably would have kept.

    Awesome, just got it. Great looking watch on my 7.65 inch wrist. The pushers feel so crisp and the crown as good as the PO. It’s a good deal for the price I got from @mdgrwl
