Steady State
I have been changing things around a little bit over the last few months, but I now feel that my collection has reached a very happy steady state, with a classic Rolex, a great modern Tudor a two other wonderful pieces. Not sure where I will go from here, but right now am thinking that these four are keepers, and that I'll stand pat for a little while.

Know when to fold 'em
Know when to walk away

OP. How satisfied are you with the Bell and Ross. I was thinking of getting one, but can't seem to justify the price for a rather simple ETA. Am I missing something here, or is the design so great in person. (Still havent been to the local AD)

Funny, when and if I do decide to add, I am thinking that it woudl be some type of flagship piece. Not sure that I could pull off a Patek, but I definitely like the way you think.

I am very satisfied and think that the design is great. The only negative for me is that the PVD coating does scratch easily, but I believe that the current iteration of my watch is ceramic, so that should correct it. On the issue of price/value, at least in the U.S. these can often be found BNIB for 40% or more off of MSRP, so should be looked at through that lens.
