The gang's all here...

I specifically bought a 5-watch watch box to limit myself to 5 pieces. Over the last few years, I've considered a lot of watches...Rolex, Breitling, Patek, JLC, Grand Seiko, Panerai, Hublot, IWC, Zenith etc, etc...Ideally, my final 5 would have had a little more diversity, but most of the stuff out there was pretty damn ugly, too busy, or just not worth the premium they were selling for.

So...this is what I ended up with - 2 Rolex, 2 Breitling, and 1 Grand Seiko. I can honestly say at nearly any price, there isn't much out there I would prefer over what I have shown here.

Thanks all for the compliments.

For those that have inquired, the watch box is a Wolf 5 watch box - very reasonably priced and can be purchased online. Just google Wolf watch boxes...

Nice collection. I have done the same regarding the 5 watch box.... You realise you have an excuse to buy one more piece though? I always wear a watch so I that leaves a spare slot in the case which I hate to see. 1 on the wrist 5 in the box.

Yes - I have that covered too :)

Not nearly as glamorous but I do enjoy the G...
