for 2 years I did this with my Black Bay 41.

Yes.
If I can only have one and my classic brand of choice is off the table, then I'm going to go all out ostentatious with a great big lump of diamonds.
I might treat myself to a snoopy.
Not given this much thought but when I saw this decided that it would do nicely, now to persuade SWMBO that I need one.
Ok, thought more about it
I did try this one last year, loved it till I saw the price, but if it was to be the only one?
And now I've sorted posting pictures.
Fair enough, C

Rent (or PCP etc.) a Rolex.
The again, not an investment, so pointless.

Sweet sweet watchMy Jaeger...
Watchstrap needs swapping over to the correct lugwidth to my eyes. The gap showing springbars is a no-no to me, especially when it's on a very expensive watch.Ok, thought more about it

It would probably be a GS Snowflake for me. I'm currently saving for one of those or an OP 39 in white.
Speedy Grail 376.0822 with the Lemania 5100. But I want SuperLuminova on the dial and hands, and a model with really good seals etc for decent WR, so I can wear it everyday, for swimming, sports, and for business etc.
So you don’t really want a Speedy then? Hardly anyone with a Speedy (particularly an older one) seems to trust them in water. I know I didn’t...Speedy Grail... and a model with really good seals etc for decent WR, so I can wear it everyday, for swimming, sports, and for business etc.

For me. The Breitling Superocean Heritage II B20, with a blue face on mesh bracelet.
COSC certified, 70 hour power reserve, tudor / breitling movement. 200m water resistance. Fits under a cuff or by the pool with equal aplomb, doesn't cost the earth and isn't a Rolex.
You’re right. I wore my 2003 Speedy Pro in the shower, but never to swim.So you don’t really want a Speedy then? Hardly anyone with a Speedy (particularly an older one) seems to trust them in water. I know I didn’t...

Does that mean I have to make another choice, then?
I’m a huge fan of the 5940R Patek’s and the rest of the range they do. Any one of those for me please!
2 pretty watches which I'm also considering, but one is a Rolex and doesn't fit in this thread
I'd keep with my Sinn EZM1 Le
Out of the watches I currently own, my GS Snowflake, so versatile for smart and casual, plus light and comfortable in titanium. Dream watches, the Eichi II, though would need a different strap for it to be my one watch.

Having just handled the new Ulysse Nardin 42mm Diver I'd go for that. It's wonderful

Like it a lot except for the bezel insert.
Fair enough. I've been offered 25%off one here in Milan on a Milanaise (!). Resale is always tricky on these so if he gives me 30% off I'll take it as that makes it £3.5k which is good value for this fit and finish and probably not too far off flip value. Cheaper in Italy than UK and that's the first time I've said that for a while!

Go for it. A great value at that price. Am not sure what the flip price would be.
Think looks better on the strap.

Please anything,anything but a Rolex.
It would be this one that I own already.
I often wish that it was the only watch I had like in the days before I had an interest in watches.
Obviously I couldn't go that far nowadays.

It is a peculiar obsession of watch enthusiasts and collectors to always be in pursuit of the one 'only watch' which can do it all, while owning several others. I'm guilty of it myself and really could make do quite happily with my GS SBGR053 as I did at the beginning of my serious watch collecting, but then wanted something more casual to wear so as not to bash it up, and so it began....
Nice to see a decent looking UN. As a brand I truly appreciate them but their marmite design was not helping a lot in sales I’m guessing.Having just handled the new Ulysse Nardin 42mm Diver I'd go for that. It's wonderful

I didn’t respond to the other thread, but my choices for any but only one watch would be either a no-date Sub or a vintage Explorer.
Taking Rolex out of the equation I would happily go with a watch I already own and wear most days, my Tudor Heritage Ranger. Wouldn’t be without it.

If no Rolex then it would probably be my new Seamaster, just pips the Planet Ocean to the post.
Started out with nothing. Still have most of it left.
Patek Philippe Aquanaut Travel Time - I honestly can't think of any situation where this watch would not be appropriate.

I very much like that Zenith,it’s perhaps the only watch I don’t have that I desire.Probably this.
Or this.

One of these two, maybe #1 for water resistance, but it'd be a difficult choice.
