Sotc

Haven't been posting here for a while so I thought I would re-start with a SOTC


Been shuffling a bit. Not something I do often. Don't like selling watches.
However I felt my collection was becoming a little unbalanced and that it was time to move on a few watches that were not here for the right reasons. In all 8 watches went and a few arrived. I have my sights on a number of watches over the next year or so. Whether i will buy all of them, some of them, or change my mind in the interim, who knows. It is all part of the WIS fun.
The watches currently in my sights.
Definitely another G O , not sure which. A lange , a Duometre a Quantieme, Another UN , probably a PC, maybe a Sonnata. A Zenith Annual calendar. Some thing with an equation of time complication. If I find a UN Moonstruck at very sensible money, I will be straight into it.

I still don't know if my humble collection of watches makes any kind of sense to anyone, let alone to me. But what I do know is that right now there is not one that I wouldn't buy again tomorrow.

Thanks Ken. That is indeed a compliment, coming from a WIS legend such as yourself. When you post your watches, I always think. Yes! I can see why he bought that.
