This year I picked up an Omega DSOTM Speedmaster.
The year was more about watches that were almost purchased. I turned down two black dial ceramic Daytonas from a single AD, as I wanted a white dial and I did not want to lose that opportunity. Still waiting for a call on the white. In Rome I tried on an attractive 1950s or 1960s Rolex Datejust, but it was way too small for my wrist (even the seller had to admit it). Also while in Rome, I found a store selling some drool worthy vintage Rolex, and I lusted after the four digit GMTs and Submariners, but I did not feel well versed enough in vintage pieces and did not want to make a costly mistake. I came so close though and still have some regrets. As for 2018, I am hoping one of two ADs will come through and the white dial Daytona will finally arrive. If the right opportunity comes along and I feel confident pulling the trigger, I would like to add a vintage GMT or Submariner. |

2017 ......flipped a couple, sold quite a few. Biggest things for 2017....
1. thinning out the collection, decided less is more. 2. Tried a two-watch rotation for a while. 3. Decided PM will be on my wrist 99% of the time 4. Collection sweet spot settling in at 3-5 pieces. 2018..... hoping for a ceramic Explorer.

Black Bay black in house, Explorer 214270, and the other day a Hamilton Pan Europ in green as part of a present from Mrs.
2018 no plans. Have 3 kids marriageable age, one just got engaged and the other two are about on the verge, near as we can tell. Likely no watch budget next while. But, I know better than to say for sure. |

Not much activity for 2017, my father was diagnosed with terminal illness so I was the wiser straying away from making any large purchases. I did purchase a 116500 at retail and sold it to free up more money (figuring anything purchased in the time period was taboo). For 2018, I have a 116710LN waiting to come in. Would also love to get a SS Sky Dweller as well.

Bought an SD43 in 2017. I didn't sell anything. For 2018 I'm increasingly interested in a DJ, rhodium on Jubilee. Also thinking about a Seiko PADI or perhaps a grand seiko. I don't have any major hopes for anything from Basel, so maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised by something and that'll change my ideas.
