Hi

First i was asking myself which will be the favourite watch from every collection..After a while i decide that it's difficult to choose only one 😀 so i am wondering which are the top three watches..

Here are mine but i am sure that we will see very nice watches soon..

Very nice trio!!

On your question...
Based on value, general WIS perception, or owner preference?

Very difficult to choose, but I would say my modern JLC Master Ultra Thin Moon, my 1962 Constellation pie pan, and my 1971 Speedmaster Professional.

It changes weekly. This was just a 12 month haul a few years back

Impossible…. but, I will try using a few categories;
value, wrist time, personal favorites

Value

Wrist Time

Personal Favorites

Good question.

If only Omega watches are allowed then it’s:
- Silver Snoopy,
- Apollo Soyuz,
- Ed White reedition.

In case we are not limited to Omega only then it’s:
- Rolex Explorer II 16550 cream and rail dial (absolute stunner),
- AP ROO 25271 (known as The Beast),
- Silver Snoopy.

Hope other watches in my collection can’t read, many would be feeling insulted while I left them off this list 😁

Funny, I've been pondering this as I want to get to three watches only. These are them, in no order:

Here’s mine - as it happens my only 3 also (aside from a g shock and a couple of beaters. The 321 gets most wrist time, followed by the Monaco and the BB58 trails in last…..

Okay, I'm running out of the house and I can grab three watches? (Forces me not to over-think it...)

My birth year watch

My favourite pilot chronograph

Surprisingly (to me) the watch I enjoy the most for everyday wear

I must admit that my BLNR would also make the cut in the top three. Just an amazing watch all around (including under water)… and my favorite color combo!

To this, I would add my Speedy Apollo 11 Moonshine (the hue AND the heft!!!!)… for more dressy occasions…

…as well as my X-33 Gen 2 (such a practical and comfortable watch for sports activities etc.).

… but would miss all the other ones, including my Tintin and a regular Speedy!

Tough decisions indeed!! 🙄

I think these 3 i would be hardpressed to ever sell and pass onto the kiddos.

SBGW253 - fantastic 38mm dress watch

Gallet Multichron 12 - 37mm chronograph running on the EP 40-68 that's incredibly balanced in all aspects!
