Icon6 Your Favorite

So which is your favorite piece in the collection? Show us some pics! Mine is probably the AP; however it is a tough decision with the 372 in the mix.

Believe it or not, this is my favorite out of my collection. Yup my lowest priced one. Pondering selling it though for a REALLY good replacement. Waiting to see what SIHH will reveal however.

Dude! Although I will always respect your opinions. Truly. I cannot understand how your 190 doesn't win out over that one. ....It does look pretty sexy though.

I must say I don't have any real favorite in my collection but since I'm in deep love with yellow gold I'd probably choose this one as my only watch. The fact that I drove about four hours in total to get it probably has something to do with it as well...

Nice, Carl. I admit I drove about 7 hours in total to get my 372.

Base-a-holic! 190 is the best 3 hander under 15k. Just love that 12-3-6-9 too much I guess. Weird, I love my 190 and will not sell it, but like wearing my 210 more, but will sell the 210 for another superior base!

Alright you beat me to it!

Now tell me, is it safe to drive 4 or 7 hours to pick up a watch?

Tough call.

I'd say one of these three, but that may change once my new additions arrive.

I have a lot of watches, many different makers I don't really have favorites, I love them all.
But gun to my head , If I had to pick. I would say one of my three JLCs

Tough choice between these two puppies. My 5402 has a great story behind as I have owned this watch in three different occasions and has made it back to me miraculously. By the way I am not selling it again! However, my ROO is my grail. Very tough to tell which one is the favorite in my collection.

Hmm geez we have some nice pieces here, some worth as much as cars haha. Well I have a more modest selection. My fav being my Rado Sintra COSC, I also have a Rado Original and am in the market for an Omega, prefereably the 300M GMT. I will buy that watch sometime this year at the right price. So let's see what 2012 brings.

Easy, my Speedmaster Pro 3570.50. It was given to me by my wife as an engagement gift and I wore it during our wedding and most of the honeymoon. It doesn't really matter what I add to the collection from now on, this one will always be my favorite.
