Hypothetical all Titanium Collection?
SOTC after a year without a watch purchase!
Should I sell my Speedmaster for a Grand Seiko?

I’ve slowed down my purchasing to about 1 watch per year now. I am really determined for my next two to be a ETA powered Pelagos (or possibly a Pelagos 39, I keep going back and forth) and a Doxa Sub 300 Carbon. That’ll get me through 2026 so not sure about a third haha
I find it interesting that they introduced a solid gold BB58 on bracelet for $32k but didn’t make that METAS certified. Either way the BB58 GMT seemed to be the only thing I’m super interested in. I think I’ll wait until they give it the 5 link and possibly the S&G treatment. My biggest letdown was no update for the Pelagos line. I was hoping for a master chronometer Pelagos
For me it is a good mix, but probably in order 1) Nick Mankey hook straps 2) OEM bracelet 3) natos 4) leather 5) rubber
I’m hoping for an update to the Pelagos 42 since it hasn’t been touched since 2015. Metas, thin it down a touch, make the clasp titanium, keep it matte with the indexes cut into the rehaut
If I won the lottery I’d probably buy a VC222. Short of winning the lottery I certainly won’t. A lot of other places I’d spend $70k. Right now I am saving for a 2-liner (eta powered) Pelagos that I’m hoping to pick up next year
Looks great, although I think I’d still go for the sub300. The reduced thickness is a great improvement, but I just love the domed crystal of the sub300 and it wears much smaller than 42mm
