Got a box (SOTC?)
I finally attempted a little organization and got a box. I need another. I like little (or big, like @Candide3693 's) glimpses into other collections. We all go for different things. I make fun of collections consisting of nothing but dark dialed divers, but I have my own blind spots. (19 not shown.)

Some great vintage pieces in there! I especially like the Bulova, Elgin, and Hamilton Tonneau-style case small seconds watches. Those are beautiful!
that would be way to much choice for me lool but good little set there. you have a watch for any occasion
Wow! I'm speechless. Had to pause for a while after seeing part of your collection (excluding the blind side). That right there is a whole lot of history and heritage in one picture. Great to see what a sage's collection looks like. 😮
Great collection 👌I really like these SOTC shots. Even if every watch has it’s history and place I think the holistic overview gives an extra dimension. And a proper box gives a good overview.
maybe you should add something Vintage just to mix it up a bit
My eyes were immediately drawn to the Zodiac in the middle, simple but stunning. But also the bottom row, second from the left with the silver case, black dial, what is it pray tell.
I do think this one would look great in your collection though 😉

That black dial is a Sellita. For a time in the 1950's Sellita made whole watches, not just movements. I don't know where they sourced their cases and dials, but similar pressed dials had a run with many brands.
I was hunting for a similar Sovereign. I ended up with a Milber from the 1940's instead. Fully jeweled at half the price, I couldn't pass it up.
Interesting collection.
Awesome group.
Zodiac and Hamilton are standouts to me.
nice collection, is it all vintage?

The Columbia, Timex, and Merkur are not vintage. Everything else is 25-70 years old.
