Thread: ORANGE.... You want ORANGE?

  1. #1

    ORANGE.... You want ORANGE?

    You can't handle ORANGE!!!!!

    Here is the collection. There's should have been an original Doxa SUB 300T in there but it got eaten in the mail between here and Holland. I hope it turns up, but after 3 and a half weeks it ain't looking good.

    From the top left we have

    Bulova GMT (from the 70's I believe)
    Doxa SUB 300T Professional reissue
    Seiko 200Meter Chrono Diver (SLN003P2P1)
    Citizen WR 100 Chrono
    Seiko SKX 781 (Orange Monster)
    Zeno Army Divers SEL 300

    The Bulova is an amazing flourescent orange.
    The Seiko Chrono is for the Italian market.

    Time to split them up. I'd love to keep them but collecting watches is not a poor student's game. When I was working, I'd just have kept on adding to the collection but times change. Nice while it lasted.

    Happy New Year

    Pete

    I've Stopped

    Unfortunately College fees in the US are unbelievable. I already sold my House in the UK to pay for this degree. I've got 20 months before I qualify, set up a practice and start earning again. So for the present my watch buying is over. I'm going to sell the Citizen, Bulova and Seiko Chrono. The Zeno belongs to the wife and I will keep the Doxa and the Orange monster. It's a real pity because each of the watches are keepers for different reasons but as I said times have changed and it is hard to justify so many watches and only 2 wrists.

    Happy new Year

    Pete

    To be fair, it was quite an interesting, albeit dead, thread!!

    and... is Pete still a member? Did he qualify, set up his practice and resume his collection of orange watches?

    Search is your friend :lol:

    He's qualified and managed to publish several books on watches in the last 10 years. He's also probably been married a couple of times and may have changed cars once or twice :wink:

    Once you're earning well, you have to get the pumpkin PO.
