Assuming it 3 watches to add to what I already own:-
Heuer Autavia 11630P driver
JLC Memovox Tribute to Deep Sea
Anonimo Polluce Bronze
I'll start...
Omega SM300 (original, not new build)
Rolex "Paul Newman" Daytona
Heuer "Siffert" Autavia
Keep it to watches that you not only aspire too but actually intend to own one day...
(Edit: I could have included the JLC Master Calendar or even the PC 8 Days, but I did say three!)

Not exciting or groundbreaking,

I'm a man of simple tastes and limited funds available solely for watches. So my top three are all classics, and seemingly as rare as hens teeth on the used market (2 of the 3 are now discontinued):
Junghans Max Bill mechanical, model 027/3701.00
The white dialed version of the Seiko Gen 1 7A28 aircrew chrono (even better would be the 7A38 powered version)
Zeno Explorer
I could go on with my reasons behind these choices, but once i start i fear i will still be typing after several pages of random fawning and flattery towards these 3 very different watches...
Rolex Sea Dweller 1220m
Original Omega SM300
Original PloProf.
and as 2 Omegas already a MM300
I'm actually very happy with my current SOTC. The only thing missing for me at the moment is a Heuer, so will likely have one as my next purchase
Rolex Sea Dweller,
IWC 379103, a slim possibility but still a possibility.
Tissot Sea Touch, when they update the LCD screen to blue like the Sailing Touch, (I assume they will).
Pam 233
AP ROO (black themes)
Hublot Big bang
In the semi-real world of expensive, but not stratospheric watches, the following three are gnawing away at me (to the point of me considering trading others to fund one).
GO Senator Perpetual Calendar - new style, ss, black dial
JLC Perpetual 8 days - new style, ss
Lange 1 - rg, silver dial
Any one of these would do me fine.
Ok if it was within the realms of possablity and only 3, removing all my current watches;
Omani blue bezel rolex 1675 with red hand ( i almost went 5510/1680, however i'd need another with gmt then...)
JLC Deep Sea Chrono, the modern one, not the 2 register
Hublot big bang for everything else or even a pelagos, just something solid for larking around!
Ok here goes my three would be:
Patek Aquanaut
Blancapin Fifty Fathoms
Girard Perregaux WWTC
But for the moment I dream.......
- Heuer Carrera 1153N
- Heuer Autavia 2446C GMT
- AP ROO (plenty of time to decide on a particular model)
Current obsessions
VC Overseas Auto black dial
JLC 8 day perpetual calendar in ss
GO Senator perpetual in ss (new version with Roman numerals and black dial)
Hmmm, i dont have 3 with a realistic chance of acquiring at the moment, but i have some funds set aside for
- Omega Seamaster 120m 'Mayol Record'
- Doxa 1200t pro
If i have a windfall, add a Mark Iv Explorer II to the list.
Lange 1 Time Zone
Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711
Audemars Piguet Royal Oak 15300
