If you won the Lottery, what would be your top 5 watches ?.
More if you want but money no object what would be your collection that would keep you happy until something else sparkles ?
Mine would be :- 1. WG blue Sub. 2. DD ice blue dial, platinum. 3. White face Daytona. 4. Gold GMT. 5. Hulk I'd like to think hopefully one day I will have this list. I don't see it as over the top, pretty basic models, nothing to fancy but I would be in my element if the above was my collection. Overtime or lottery, one will get me this list ;)

Before buying a watch for myself I would take care of my family first...on both sides of the family. If I won a lot I would love to be able to give each member a million dollars after taxes. And of course more for my wife and son. If I won a smaller amount I would still give a gift to everyone first...then with what is left I would think about myself.....
Take it easy.....Leo

I think a Patek Calatrava would be in order, given such circumstances.

No watches for me. With my winnings, I'd hire Heidi Klum to follow me around and whisper the time in my ear every minute.

Ah. The lottery question.
1) platinum DD with 'maybe' a diamond dial 2) Girard- Perregaux Tour Billon Bi-axial 3) Patek Philippe 5146 Any more than that would be superfluous! Well... 4) Jaeger LeCoultre complication of any kind 5) Comex Sea Dweller In somewhat that order. |
