Six months, four watches, one happy man!

Just a few pics of my collection on a miserable rainy Saturday. A few S/S models would be the cherry on the cake. Opinions on the collection and suggestions for additions very welcome.

Really like the RG Daytona and the root beer.

For me though You’ve too many TT. I’d swap one out for a steel. Pepsi, BLNR or a sub, maybe a sky. I’d imagine after buying those, your AD will deliver steel now.

Nice TT theme! They are really nice together and each very different. I’d keep them all.

Top it off with a WG DD40 with olive dial or ice blue platinum DD40 if you need to add to that glorious set.

I totally agree, whilst I love them all, I have orders in for all the SS models you mentioned. If I was to sell one it would be the Seadweller but only as a last resort, just love owning them!

To me - TT bluesy and root beer are amazing in any collection. I can even make a case these 2 are all one needs, maybe throw in a SS for daily. Really love your collection!

The RG Daytona is amazing, hoping to get the same one by early next year.

Nice collection. It's not serious until it's on leather.

I see you shop at Spiers. They can sort you out with a nice Annual Calendar down in Truro.

Really nice! I agree that something in an all white metal would top it off.

Great collection
Two divers, a GMT, a gold Daytona and all with precious metals! Nice to see a change from all the same SS posts.
Only advice, slow down from here and enjoy what you have and the journey

Great collection; a man with a significantly lighter wallet as well!!! I'd go after a full PM piece.

Nice collection. Too many TT models imo. I can see the TT bluesy and rootbeer and get a gold Day Date 40 then maybe a black sub and a simple rolex like the AK. After all that you should in-line for a SS daytona at the AD. Can also add a speedy and some tudors along the way but don't get too off-track hahah. Anyway, great collection...big congrats!

I would keep all TTs, they are all different. I would add a Batman, Pepsi, Panda, and Cermit, but not a black Sub. You already have a TT SD43 and a Bluesy which are better than a regular black Sub, if you must get a steel diver then I suggest a steel SD43 and get rid of the TT. Also maybe some dogs of the steel Rolex range before they become popular. Air King, Z Blue, Explorer Polar. I would make the Panda, Polar, Z Blue, Air King a priority. Batgirl, Pepsi, Cermit still have a long production run, and Batman, Hulk can be bought from grey if you are ok with that. With Rolex it's hoard and poses, but only what you like and wear in my opinion, otherwise leave them for who will like and wear them.

Matt , you have great taste. So nice to see watches with color and contrast. The same old SS with black dial is boring.
Congratulations on your purchases.

Reinforces my decision to keep my Bluesy and Rootbeer containing collection and not trade for a DD40! The girl hands in the pic had me confused for a bit...lol then I saw it's a pic the watches sit on!

Great collection!!
