    The Joker is an amazing piece. I keep looking and thinking about it but have not yet taken the plunge. If you ever sell let me know !!:)

    Picked up my GMT Master II a few days before xmas and I love it! Thought the polished links might be a bit showy but they are much more subtle in real life.

    My best acquisition this year has got to be my Rolex Explorer 114270

    A close second. Particularly now it’s on a bracelet.

    Got to be my Lemania powered Tutima chrono. I've always wanted a Lemania and this one's in lovely condition.

    Hirsch Liberty,
    Cant seem to find them now as I want a 22mm..
    Looks like you can get one though from Damasko direct for 40 Euros which is a good price.. lovely strap

    I have two almost joint favorites this year, the winner at the beginning of the year a 114270 which I had saved up, for what felt like a very long time, becoming way too quickly very close runner up:



    It was usurped by this unlikely contender a Smiths 12.15, which I received for my birthday:

    Had a few ins and outs but I think the Sinn 903 BE has to take the title for my favourite this year. It's pretty much my daily wear now

    Tudor BB GMT. Was lucky enough to receive the first one they received. That said they've had enough of my hard earned over the years...

    There have been a few, including a couple that I haven't seen yet, but it has to be the Poljot.

    BB58 for me. In fairness, it was my only watch purchase this year. Lovely thing though. Will be interesting to see what Tudor treat us to at Basel in 2019. Let’s see if they can deplete my Rolex fund again.

    This for me. A modest watch, keeps very accurate time, is extremely comfortable, is 200m waterproof and is a great re-issue watch.

    Snowflake. It was the first GS I ever coveted and now finally have one. Much prefer the layout and use of space on the original branding.

    Easy one for me as I only bought one watch

    A mint 16700 Pepsi GMT complete with everything including recent Rolex Service Papers.

    Then recently I bought a watch I have always wanted so I guess this tops the list now -

    Good to see a couple of Sinns here!
    My fav came in the last week of the year.
