Pretty easy to do it in one photo when your collection numbers only two so far...

I'm thinking next watch candidates are DJII two tone or YM 116622 blue dial.

Not a great photo, but the pieces should be identifiable. The orange monster and vintage Omega will be the next ones to get traded up, I don't want to go over 6.

I think Gus my next is going to be a surprise and am already talking to a certain AD about ordering one. We will see and it will be a while. I am also number one on wait list for a certain watch and if it ever comes in I am done!

Do you have any preference between the PP and the AP stylistically or otherwise?

Congrats, Ken! Love the Genta duo. Do you have a watch collection in one photo of your vintage pieces?

Ken, my friend. You are killing us here.

I think that "you think" that your last piece is a Patek, or Lange. Only these two brands are now suitable for your refined taste IMO. It's safe to say at this point that you don't need another Rolex.

Do you like leather strap watches? Give us a hint for the fun of it.

Current state of the collection after yesterday's addition. The collection started with the steel fish and has progressed to the abyss, then the sub and finally the date just.
