Hello TRF!

I wanted to upload my entire collection and you all give me an idea of how I’m doing with my collection. More importantly, what am I missing high and/or low end?

I’m in my early 30s for what that’s worth. I do have a couple pieces that I’m interested in:
-Reverse Duo Time
-IWC Perpetual Calendar in Steel
- Pre-Owned Portugieser 75th Anniversary in Steel
- Nomos Weltzeit (Blue Dial) though I will miss that date window

_ some all gold offering with bracelet (Preferably Rose Gold)

Thanks for you taking time to read my post. I really value members feedback and I definitely spend more time on here than one should! :-)
Cheers!

That’s a large collection! Nice, but large.

Like you, when I was younger, focused on a diverse collection. One day, it dawned on me, that I consistently wore the rotation of the same few watches despite owning many.

Ultimately, I trimmed my collection down to 3 Rolex and my Omega Planet Ocean and am now much happier with the result.

joerivers1961 · 1 December 2017, 07:56 AM

That's a great collection congrats! You've definitely covered entry and mid level, seems like your next should be a step higher! Patek, Audemars, IWC like you mentioned and no question a Reverso would be an amazing addition.

Chadridv · 1 December 2017, 08:09 AM

You're doing great! I'd personally be happy with just the top row. The 2 Rolex, 1 Tudor and 2 Omega.

I do really like that silver dial Seiko on Leather. What model is that?

Laszlo · 1 December 2017, 08:22 AM

Haha. I guess you’re doing okay.

Impressive!!

AzPaul · 1 December 2017, 08:23 AM

Do you wear the Bulova Moon watch much?

Thanks for the feedback. I feel l that way sometimes as well.

The PRS200 and 516 will always be there because I have great memories tide to them. The Nomos Orion was actually my Grooms Cake when I got married so that will definitely be there as well.

As for the Seiko, I believe it was a lighting issue because that is the Seiko Cocktail Time SARB065.

It definitely gets some love. I preferred the strap to the bracelet option but I would care to see it on a different strap; maybe a suede.

Thanks

Nice collection but I don't know how you can split love with all of them

How do you like the Moon Bulova? There was one in a store I do work for and I kept eyeing it. I really love the look. Although the overall length is a bit big for my wrist. But, I just love the watch!! Wonder if they can order another one.

roaddog359 · 1 December 2017, 01:29 PM

Looks good, now I say step up to AP or PP. and you got all bases covered. Or then thin the herd a bit.

It's a handsome collection.

Was just curious if with all those great pieces to choose from, whether the Bulova managed to find much wrist time. Some tough competition there, including his more famous, lunar cousin.

Houstongator · 1 December 2017, 02:03 PM

Glad to see a Tissot or two or three.

Agreed as well, which is approximately what I have. Covers all occasions and everybody gets it's share of the wrist time

Thats where I was at one point but I have now consolidated down to 3. Great collection!

mjclark32 · 3 December 2017, 06:34 AM

IMO, keep the top row and the omega in the bottom that’s just laying there. Sell the rest and pick up something new

Believe it or not, I wear the Bulova more than the Speedy Pro. That Hesalite Crystal worries me!

BNA/LION · 3 December 2017, 06:51 AM

Nicely with plenty of diversity.

ajas · 3 December 2017, 10:32 AM

Great collection with lot of diversity.

In future you may consider consolidation or expansion depends of priorities.

I’m really digging the SARB065 and the rose gold Seiko! Haven’t seen the rose gold model. I’ve got a 065 myself and it’s a spectacular watch in person. That ice blue dial
