I am still quite new to the forum but thought I would post a photo of my collection. Certainly not as significant as some of the wonderful collections here but a collection I am very happy with.

I'd been buying and flipping watches for a while until I landed on the LV around six years ago, everything grew from there. I liked it so much that I needed another - so in came the SD. The Tudor Sub and GMT give the collection a bit more colour.

I have one more slot left in my box - I am in need of a chrono or something with a while dial. Yes there is one that fits perfectly. But the cost of a Daytona in the country I live in is just ridiculous and I can't bring myself around to pulling the trigger on one. So the search continues....

Thanks for looking.

A great collection of four classics. Congratulations

You might consider a Datetona which will fits perfectly in the empty slot

every course every one of those pieces are the tops!

this is the part of your collection in my wheel house… the bottom two are keeping me very happy but the top two are next level

(assuming that is not a 5711P you are showing there? in which case disregard and insert :)

Thanks ...no is 557 (destro) same as 372 but the crown. I had a 372 before , and find the 557 more comfortable to wear.

Thanks Gus. Love your Pateks as well! My 5711 is indeed a P version.

An update from me - 6 years at the hobby and I finally filled the box. New addition of Glashutte Senator. When and IF this last one finally grows up, graduates and becomes a 5205R I am hanging up my spurs! 5 is enough.
