3 Watch Collection - Requesting Input
If you were going for the 3 watch collection, air/land/sea, and you had air and land covered with a BLNR and Hesalite Speedy, what are your recommendations for the sea watch IF it's not an Omega or Rolex model?

I'd go seaq or Grand Seiko. Depends on the budget too. I said in the other thread that the new superocean is expensive but I really liked it when I saw it . I like my aquaracer night diver too, if you're trying to keep costs lower.

How does a Moonwatch cover land? Clearly that should be an Air King :)
For sea I agree the pic is the fifty fathoms or possibly a Panerai luminor. |

Aquanaut. But some diversity in metal would be nice. Maybe a BB58 Bronze.

There are other brands that make a dive watch besides Rolex and Omega?
Just kidding. I’d probably go with the Panerai Submersible, but seriously I’m not sure why you’d rule out a Submariner or a Seamaster. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

IMO, diversify your 3 pieces by way of style, add a dress piece, maybe something yellow gold. Something for special occasions. Then you have a nice everyday watch (speedy) and a great sport model (BLNR) to round things out.

More generally, all I really need is 3 watches - a sports watch, a dress watch, and a beater for when the going gets rough. This is where I have happily been at for some time. If I was diving I might add a diver as recommended above but I am not. My sports watch is good for 120m which is plenty for swimming, snorkeling, and boating/sailing. |
