Collection in a single shot (sort of)

As it stands this week. When will the madness end?

Glad to help putting things in perspective :) Most importantly my wife mustn't see this picture :D

She doesn't understand that I don't have enough watches. It's work in progress.

Ploprof definitely my favourite

That Mkii Olympic Speedy is the watch I keep wanting but never buy and I don’t know why. The subtlety of what makes it an Olympic dial is brilliantly done & I love it. Let me know if you ever plan parting with it - though I’d have to sell to buy at the moment!

What?, everybody knows that it’s n+1. Same as handbags 🤔

Agreed- There’s something about the Rio Olympic Speedmaster that hit the nail on the head-
I love the dial. I used to wear it a lot until my partner decided she wanted to wear it and I’m yet to
get it back……

Pushed the boat out this year with the FXD and Explorer II so thought l’d do a one shot to end the year. 2024 likely to be a quiet one.

[Routers]

Just checking what I currently have and clearly it’s far too many.
Time for a cull and there’s four (or maybe more) to move on.

[MartynJC (UK)]

Time for my little lot: only one added this year. I have split into three Picts.





Hope these turn out ok?

Here is a crap picture of them all together:

Not the greatest photo, but hopefully they’re all identifiable.

[deepreddave]

Currently these, aside from a Casio and a Garmin. There's 3-4 I keep thinking of moving on but I usually stay in the thinking rather than doing mode when I wear them again and there's no rush.
I have a couple of possible additions in mind, including a gold dress watch, but am leaning towards movements with longer PRs at the moment.

Intrigued as to why you wear the strap on your PPs upside down Martyn?

This is my collection roll of MOD homages.

This is my type of collection. I could really see me enjoying the rotation of each and everyone of those. Nice one!

On an unrelated note, would you recommend that watch box? I note it’s torn at the bottom.

Thanks. Kind of you to say. It’s taken me a lot of time and effort to get here. If you had of told me a few years ago that I’d have a GP & BP I’d have laughed in your face!

The box was brought fairly cheaply from Amazon (i think) mainly due to it being able to fit in my safe. I’ve been more than happy with it, and on the odd occasion it’s been out to GTG’s etc it’s been commented on. Hadn’t noticed it was damaged to be honest, as it spends its life locked away in the safe. I’ve had it for a good few years though, and the safe is metal so a few battle scars are to be expected.

I noticed the box and liked how compact it is. I’m after one like that. Need either 9/10 capacity or a 6 and 4.

First time I’ve had them all together for a long time but now they’re back in the SDB for a month!

Lovely collection. The Tudor looks to fit in well with its big brothers.

[Wallasey Runner]

After many years and hundreds of watches and brands I think this represents my end game. All 40mm watches and something slightly different.

End game for this week.

Thanks. Think I’ve worn it four or five times, looks great in pics but the second I put it on I’m not into it. BAU for Tudor sadly.

Glad to see you added a bit of colour recently with the Pepsi. Is that a 116600? I've only sold 1 Rolex, that one, just before it was discontinued - it still makes me wince ...

A really nice trio, more interesting that most on here (including mine). I'm not normally a fan of non-sporty Pateks, but I make an exception for your 5212, just lovely - quite different to anything else they offer. Similarly, love the Radio Room, great combinations of colours (makes me think of the Joker).

Yes that’s a 116600, second one I’ve had. BLRO is a bit loud on the jubilee for me but the oyster I bought is being brushed at the minute.

Trying to get down to three like Ken but it’s easier said than done. Takes some commitment.

these are kept in the office, few dozen at home

Surprised to see the milguass as your only Rolex Ken. I keep looking at Pateks as a sort of special occasion watch to consolidate into but can’t find one to settle on.

The Rolex thing is tricky, having had multiple SDs, Submariners, Daytonas and GMTs it felt as though it had run its course. My grail watch for a while was the Milgauss 1019, but didn’t manage to find one so opted for the GV instead, quirky and discontinued and I always wanted to try one, so something a little different.

The Patek consolidation watch I agree with you over, most people either head down the sports watch (Aquanaut, Nautilus etc) or the gold dress watch route. I saw the 5212 and fell in love with it. I just love the handwritten font on the dial, the case is stainless steel and 40mm and has hacking as well as a stack of 5 hands in the centre, which takes some doing.





The watch is seriously comfortable to wear and flies under the radar. I doubt many people seeing it would know what it was.

It took a Ceramic White Dial Daytona plus some cash from a Ceramic GMT BLRO sale to get, but glad I did. I had thought the two Rolex would be a dream team, but they just didn’t hit the spot.

This is a lovely trio. I must admit they are not my normal style but I appreciate each of them especially the PP.

I have to say if I must pick one the tri-Compax would be my favourite too, or the hardest to let go at least. Bought it from the original owner whom I am still in contact with.
