Added my third watch this week!

In a previous thread, I proposed three choices to add a third watch to my three-watch collection. My first watch is a recently purchased GMT CHNR. It’s my “big” watch for big occasions. My second watch is a Panerai Luminor Due, PAM 926, an attractive deep blue dial on a leather strap, good for many/most occasions but not great for summer, outdoor activities. My third watch was a Rolex Date from the late 80’s, which my wife recently started wearing. I went in a completely different direction from the previous thread (ND Sub vs NTTD Omega vs Pelagos).

I guess I was missing my smaller, 34 mm SS Rolex, which could be worn for anything and everything. So I picked up a Tudor Black Bay 36 79500 (2022), and I love it. It is slightly larger than my old Rolex, but it immediately has taken over the everyday utility role. It also has a more contemporary and funky look that I am enjoying (compared to the more stodgy and conservative Rolex dial).

Congrats on the big 3! The only problem w/ multiple purchases at once is it's hard to dedicate the proper honeymoon period to each without thinking of the other. But yours are different enough to have the situation dictate the reference.
