    My watches so far, in no particular order.

    I have to add more but I haven't made pictures of them yet. Feel free to follow me on Instagram to support me. I post my watches much earlier on my Instagram than on the forums.

    My Seiko 6139-6002 aka "Pogue":





    My Seiko Presage Cocktail SRPB41J1 aka "Blue Moon":





    My Seiko 6138-0030 JDM aka 'Kakume' or 'Big Blue':





    My 2nd Seiko 6139-6019 aka 'Deep Blue':





    My Breitling Airwolf A78363:





    My Seiko 6138-8030:





    My Seiko 6139-6010:





    My Seiko 6139-6019, go to my Instagram to read more about this piece:





    My Seiko 6139-6011 which needs service and a new crystal. This won't be my only 6139-601x, I'm way too addicted to that absolutely gorgeous blue dial:





    My Seiko 6139-6020 (the red hue on the dial and hands is because of a red parasol). Hardly worn by the original owner:





    My Seiko SARB017:





    My Seiko SNA411:





    My Seiko Recraft Series SSC667 'Gulf':





    My Seiko SRP731K1 (NOS):





    I hope you enjoyed the post.

    Lovely collection.
    I’m going to have a guess and say you’re a fan of Seiko?

    Thanks for posting. I really like the 6139-6020. Interesting choice to start the pulsations scale at 10. I wonder what it was intended to measure?

    I like the flightmaster. The bracelet is a cool choice, is it PVD? If so the contrast works for me.
    Thanks for sharing.

    A lovely collection. Which one gets worn as the daily beater?

    Thats a great collection enough variety to warrant wearing each on different occasions. The 6139-6020 is definitely my favourite. Perfect retro vibe on it.

    It's lovely, and very unusual to see calibration for 10 pulse beats rather than the more common 15 or 30. I suppose that it makes it quicker to determine heart rate, but there will be a larger margin of error.

    Thank you Walter. You are a man who knows what he likes. Nice focused collection. Takes most folks decades to settle on a brand

    Wow that’s a very seiko heavy collection and there’s nothing wrong with that. My favourite would have to be the green SARB017. Never seen one in the flesh only in pics mind you. Enjoy your lovely collection

    That Seiko SRP731K1 is awesome. Never seen a bezel like that. Is that a Japanese domestic market model?

    Thank you Dave. I have to add 3 more but I've been too lazy to take a picture of them. Yes, and other brands, you have to start somewhere ;).

    Yeah the Pulsations is one of my favorite watches. It's ment to measure they heart frequency.

    Yeah, it's actually not the greatest to measure the heart frequency with.

    Thanks mate, but it's just a start. I'm not really settling on a brand, just starting somewhere.

    Thanks, it's a K model so not a JDM version. It seems though that it wasn't released very widely.

    I'm living in Medellin, Colombia for the last 10 years now. Were you living in Bogota? It's an amazing country, so sad how so many factors obstruct the country from progressing. The lockdown which is going on will make things even worse.

    Lovely collection you have there, for me its the blue Speedtimer, a watch I have come very close to buying myself on a number of occasions but never quite pulled the trigger.
