Don't really have a good picture of it, but my favorite watch is probably my Panerai 112 with the strap in the picture. It has been away for service for quite sometime, and I'm getting anxious to get it back. I've been wearing the GMT-IIc as of recently, but there is something about my Panerai that I just love.

You have the disease for which there is no cure, only relief when one purchases a new one every once in awhile.

My advice, take another Rolex and call me in the morning if you do not feel any better.

My 16750 is my favorite. Modern quickset movement with vintage looks. The best of both worlds.

A tough question. However, I always go back to one big question:If I had to pair it down to just one piece, it would have to be the 16610....

Beautifull examples, everyone.
No question it's the GMT for me. Having said that, the Tudors are a very close 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, & 6th.

I love all my watches, but right now the YG DD president with white roman dial is the newest, thus is it getting most of my adulation and admiration...

Love the Jubilee bracelet DP. I'm thinking about swapping for one on my GMT-II, just to set it apart a little more from the others.

Probably this one. I have no idea why, since the damn thing weighs 1/2 a pound ... but I wear this thing ALL. THE. TIME.

I'm liking my LV at this time. I like the very black dial against the green.

I have to pick two. The GMTIIc and the AP RO. I think these two will be with me for a long time.
