Your 1 WOW watch in your collection?
Hi all,

What is your 1 wow watch in your collection? Something that really blows you away each time you wear it and makes you feel rather special.

For me undoubtedly it is the AP Millenary 4101, a unique piece which is flawless in it’s execution and makes me feel like a million bucks!

Not sure but I have a tendency to like some of my less expensive watches.

This one. Nowhere near my most expensive, but just so “wow”.

Shouldn’t all watches in our collection has a wow factor hence we bought them in the first place? Haha no offence to OP that just pop into my mind when I recall which one pops in my collection.. I can’t decide which is which.. I find them them all quite amazing.

My thoughts aside, watches posted on this thread certainly are jaw droppingly cool I must admit!

Cheers!
Jen

That is a very fair point well made Jen. My experience in a large varied collection is one or two pieces just feel that little bit more special sometimes so was interested in which pieces made people feel like that. I am glad you find them all amazing and they must all get equal wrist time! Haha!

My DOXA SUB1200T Professional.

Every time I put it on, it feels like I'm getting away with something. Adults are supposed to generate reports and tell people what to do, not walk around with a clementine strapped to their wrists.

This has probably gotten the most compliments from non watch people.

A very very special duo and it does not get much better. I love my Lange 1 MP and is also a wow watch for me.
