Thanks. I like both watches equally well. The Sub is the latest edition so there's the novelty factor but I also like the upgrades such as the ceramic bezel and glide lock bracelet. On the other hand, I have had the GMT for 15 years, bought in my son's birth year, so has a lot of sentimental value. They are both great watches and I try to give them both equal wrist time.

Really, really well thought out. Kudos to you!

Thanks. I tried to build a well-balanced collection with icons that I won't be tempted to flip. I also wanted to have a collection of different brands but decided if I did double-up, it would be for Rolex or Patek.

Isn't that the rose gold version that has been out for a few years now? Aftermarket rubber strap?

Bought my first nice watch 6 months ago. I want a White Daytona, but I just can't justify it.

My very humble collection.
Seiko Orange Knight (first automatic watch, traveled to China with me)
Seiko SKX009 (classic piece always wanted a Rolex Pepsi and that was as close as I could get at the time)
Rolex Sub LVc (most recent purchase and my seat at "the big boys table", beautiful and can't wait to take it on my honeymoon coming up to Croatia)
Breitling SuperOcean ii 42 (Wore to my wedding, and love the colors)
Oris Williams TT1 (I wanted a rubber band watch, lol)
Tag Aquaracer Auto (law school graduation present from mom, never really liked it, but has sentential value (and not much monetary) so i'll never part with it)

Would be interested to know which version of the Daytona you prefer more! I have yet to see a 116500 in person and am curious. I have the same 116520.

Extremely modest compared to most posted here.

NOT a collection, but watches that are hard earned, worn, well loved, and appreciated.

MOTM, MG GV, Vintage TOG

First post here, I'll be getting my new BLNR, hopefully sometime next week. Then, I'll truly be able to join in! My collection right now consists of basically just a plain face Seiko with sticks, a G-Shock, and a Steinhart Ocean One. Looking to up my game with the BLNR as my first big boy watch. After that, would love a Hulk. Been lurking a long time here, great community!

Curious as well, in addition, I'm curious what type of case this is? I like the fact that the spacing in each section is large enough to incorporate a strap or two with the watch (great way to match colors). Anyone know what this is, or something similar, but equally sized?

Great collection, and I quite like the curved nature of the case. Where are you off to in Croatia? I'll be there for two weeks, starting the first week of July (I'm from Bosnia originally). Either way, you'll love it there, it's vastly beautiful.
