My humble collection...
Hi TRF,
I have been meaning to send out a pic of my collection in my 1120 pelican case (Sorry for the low quality pic, promise to take better ones later) Here is the line up: 1) Speedy on Nato (work) 2) Explorer I 39mm (everyday, outside of work) 3) Planet Ocean on rubber (leisure, beach, scuba) 4) ROC (fancy) I have been contemplating maybe changing things up or reducing my collection. I am more sentimental about the Omega's and the Rolex as I bought these brand new from the AD. Let me know what you think! |

I love your collection! Very well done. In fact, if that Explorer was a GMTIIC, it would be my idea of perfection. You have all the bases covered and you have some iconic watches from each brand. I love the Planet Ocean, I love the Speemaster Pro and I love the AP ROC. The Explorer is also a very strong choice. Welcome to TRF!!!

You know what??? Alot of guys on TRF have more Rolexes and more "bigger names" (i.e. the haute brands) but I say that's very very close to a perfect collection. Your taste really stands out!!
I love the Omegas and the Explorer. If your AP was a non-chrono , I'd say it was perfect. ( that's only because the only chrono I really love is the Speedy and you already have one) Overall, very high quality and timeless pieces without the gaudy pretention. Impressive indeed. |

Nice collection! If you're looking for another watch, I would consider something with a complication like a moonphase or complete calendar to round it out.
