The only 5 digit is the LV, which has sentimental value, plus I just love the size and bezel colour etc... that watch will never go anywhere.

I'm just a believer in variety of dial colors. Folks say the same about metals (yellow gold, SS, etc..) .

I'm at brown, white, green, and black dial watches.
Yep... I like variety, both in metals and dial colours. The DJ is Rhodium, my Zenith is grey dial, and the Heuer is blue, so plenty of variety

Glad you’re content, OP. I tweaked my collection recently and I’m very happy. I think I’m done too ... for the foreseeable future

When you say "i'm done" that means you have just started as a collector :)

Good question - for me, I simply wear them in rotation, sometimes to match the shirt I happen to put on that day.

PS I like your avatar, he's my favorite guitar player.

I wear them based on functionality and occasion.

- GMTII for family holidays (crossing timezone)
- SkyD for business travel (cross timezone)
- DeepseaBlue daily when working in town
- Milgauss weekend watch
- SubC No Date keeping for my son when he graduates
- SubC TT for functions and meetings in town

Can you give us a picture with better lighting? I’m having difficulty seeing the colours of each dial.

Hope that’s not too much to ask

Cheers

Very nice collection.

+1 on a SeaDweller. Sometimes 300m Water Resistance just isn't enough.

You have a nice collection but I don't think you will really be satisfied until you get the ceramic Daytona
