Hey everyone, it's been my second year collecting vintage and had some time over the weekend and decided to share some of my acquisitions this year. Definitely has been a busy year for me, some come and go but mostly stayed! Would like to also say thanks to everyone in OF, making this the best online watch forum in my opinion, selfless and helpful members making this such a great community for modern and vintage watches. Here's some of the watches that I acquired and stayed this year. (Apologies as they are not sorted by anything.) View attachment 317505 There's a few that's still coming so that will be for another day. Been a great year and here's to a better 2017!
All I can say is wow! What really jumps out at me is the condition these watches are in. Very impressive.
Awesome collection Kent! Great progress for second year of collecting, we are about at the same age of WIS dibs on the 5513!!
Omg where is moonwatch?? This watches are outstanding....I like that witnauer diver. Congratz and happy hunting in next year.
Hilarious...I love it how our collections and taste mirror one another's! There is a crazy number of 1:1 pairings in regards to what is currently in my collection and what has been bought and sold. I can only say killer...otherwise I would be a hypocrite! Thanks for sharing.
I would be happy if what you have managed to collect in two years is what I manage to collect in the next 40. Absolutely superb collection. The reverse panda Zenith is my favourite. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks everyone for the kind words, really has been a great year! Oh, yes, I do need a 321 soon enough. Thanks S, you certainly have an amazing collection yourself! Well noted! Absolutely, great mind thinks alike right? Haha Pleasure to share. That's too kind buddy, stick around in OF and let's see what happens to you.
Wow. So many wonderful pieces. But two a386 Please leave some behind for the rest of us mere mortals Sent from my Samsung galaxy S6
So ... As I close out my first year as an OF influenced collector (albeit only one Omega this year), I think I've done OK but looking at your collection in year 2 ..... What was your strategy/philosophy in acquiring all these stunning mostly sport/chrono watches?
Wow...2 years? Did you find time to sleep? All great pieces! I find the Gallet's particularely scrumptious!
Thanks guys! Well noted M, seems its going to be a keeper though! All in all, its not a competition, there's no strategy to it. Just try your best to focus your collection, we can't buy them all! You have a fantastic collection btw for only a year. Just enough haha, thanks buddy. Will probably slow down next year, and focus on a few pieces in mind.
