I've owned a BB & a GP Carbon in the past but found them almost toy like and gimmicky especially the GP although i do like what some have done with replacing the carbon with the ceramic bezel. So many damn choices with so little money ;))))

I know what you mean. I like the lightness and the durability of the BB as a daily beater. Great collection by the way . Wear them well , all of them

All nice watches but they all look like sports watches to me, fwiw, ymmv, etc, etc... Nothing looks formal.

True enough. But I consider anything on a formal leather strap, dressy, plus nothing really formal has rocked my boat other than the six figure models.

With all due respect, your collection is not even close to being over. Don't get me wrong these are some nice pieces, but with that kind of money, i would get;

1. Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711

2. Patek Philippe Calatrava 5153G

Now your collection is over

I respect your opinion but these two pieces don't do much for me. The 5711 is iconic but it's much too small for my wrist. It almost wears like a ladies watch on my beefy arms so it's out. On the 5153G it's just too much money for a piece that has no pizzaz for me, much to simple a dial & design but I do love the house of Patek but mostly for their perpetual chrono's. Cheers. Love the back & forth. This is what this hobby is about. The people. :)
