There are many watches I want but not that I need. So I don't have an answer to the question. So it goes.

Honestly I always just wanted to own a Rolex. Now I own 2 and a beautiful JLC. So I achieved that some time ago.

My main priority over getting a nice watch collection right now would be retiring as soon as possible and chilling out with my girl. If I get to pick up a few more pieces along the way then I won't be complaining.

White Gold Sub and Blue Glacier Dial Platinum Day Date.

If I ever have those 2 at the same time you can just draw a line under me as I'm finished.

A piece from philippe dufour would be the dream but in terms of something obtainable, i would love to one day get hold of a lange datograph or one of fp journe's pieces!

As far as watches completly out of my realm, it would be a Patek 5970 or a Nautilus. Something actually obtainable in the future for me would be a BLNR or Explorer II 16550 cream dial.

Definitely the WG Sub. The first Rolex that really sparked my interest in the brand. I just didn't realise at the time it was WG. I like to think one day it will be acheiveable to own one.

Hard to say because it seems to change often. First of all, can't believe I own two Rolexes so consider myself very fortunate. Never thought I would see this day because when I first caught the Rolex bug very many years ago I could barely afford a Timex. Guess if I had to pick something today, it would be the YG DDII with white dial.
