I did the same thing of consolidating by selling my SS Daytona and two Subs and buying my grail watch, which is a Lange 1. That’s not really a sports watch, so I also got a Panerai PAM796 for diving....
Whilst we’re on the topic, I’ve been collecting watches for 25 years, but always went for dressy ones from brands such as Breguet, Lange, Glashütte and Patek; no larger than 40mm. I just bought my...
Stunning photos, by the way, breathtaking.
Picked this up from a local AD, the one model of Nomos which appealed to me due to the blued steel hour & minute hands, and the red seconds hand.

Took my red gold Glashütte Original Senator out in the sun. Beautiful glow.

A. Lange & Söhne. Only watch people recognise them and know what they’re worth.

They're painted, but look pretty good in the right light. They can look very blue or almost black, depending on the lighting.
Here are my two specimens, one has the blue hands, the other rose...
Painted
Same watch on a different strap. Very easy to switch out the strap, they have a tiny quick-release button underneath which allows you to detach instantly. Very happy with the service from Barry &...
http://www.ernestjones.co.uk/webstore/d/2829835/ would be worth a look as well. Eco Drive is useful and the dial is legible
This dial is made of German silver, but it's kind of white:

Heh, I'm smiling at this. I also don't like any Rolex, Omega or Patek models at this stage in my life. I could save so much money if I could just wean myself off the Lange obsession...
Hahaha, you can see this wasn't designed by a diver. Or a Swede...
I used to wear my SS white Daytona for travelling, but someone tried to mug me in Barcelona some years ago (unsuccessfully, luckily), so ever since then I just wear a Swatch with a mechanical...
Heh, maybe they meant Cartier Santos? Or maybe they just made it up, who knows with The Sun
I tried, but I just cannot warm to the Tudor. I've gone off the Daytona as well (to the extent that I sold my white dial 115620 a few months ago). The Speedy wins for me, especially on a leather...
Sorry to hear that, my experience has been positive. They are running behind schedule and I did experience a slight delay, but they kept me informed via personal emails. In the end, they said I would...
My Undone watch arrived today, this is a Kickstarter project I had backed, and it allows you to custom-design your own watch based on some provided templates, which themselves are inspired by some...
Mine arrived today, my customised Killy variant. This really is a lovely watch, and the price is more than reasonable. Time will tell how well it holds up, but first impressions are very positive....
Hello, is it me you're looking for?

I sold some watches through eBay and Chrono24. Both charge commission, but that's fine since they provide the platform to find buyers. I got plenty of interest from scammers on eBay, but if you know...
Most popular, hmm, I bought various Swatch watches with mechanical automatic movements over the web.
In terms of most valuable, a Nomos Club Automat.
I bought the no date version precisely because of the dial symmetry.
I prefer the Lange, by a country mile.
