Right now I'm leaning towards an Omega. Moon watch or PO8500.

We will see...Not easy to find--in fact next to impossible!!

I do love the WG one though--powerful and bold!! The platinum more subdued and limited to 200 also interesting but.....

Tough one, but RG seems to appeal to me the most.

Well my next is going to have to wait a while...
I was all ready to get a YG DD or DDII but couldn't decide
and then I started to debate a YG GMT IIC or WG Sub
BUT
A good business opportunity opened up and there went all
my watch funds, a couple watches and a little extra cash on
top of that.....
So far so good and I do not regret putting off my next watch
for two reasons one business is off to a positive start and two
it made me realize I am just not ready for a DD or YG watch
Now I have narrowed my choice for the "Next" down to two
choices both of which weren't even thought of before...

Now my next will either be the......

Patek 5980/1A

or

Patek 5167

Whichever it is will be sometime between Sept and the New Year

I've applied for a Patek 5270 at my AD but I'm not 100% sure it'll happen (and even if approved it seems unlikely that it'll happen in 2012). I can hope though!

What's more likely this year: I'll probably pick up my very first AP at some point this summer (I've been eyeing the ROC). And with some luck, a Tudor Black Bay.

Thanks Dan!
I really hope I can make the 5980 Black Dial happen!

Brian the 5270 is my true Grail of watches! What an amazing and stunning piece!

These 2

Just paid balance due on my Hentschel H1 order so hopefully I will have it by month's end. Waiting for the new Dressage to become available later this year, too . . . (pics from net).

Speedmaster GMT or Chronomat Evolution.

Having a tough time deciding between the two - probably go the gently pre-owned route.

It's been a long time since I've seen this thread!

I guess I'll probably go with a vintage divers' watch or, perhaps, a wrist alarm (I've been lusting over those double crown beauties...not sure about the brand I'll choose though).
