I Got The Call...Another off the Wall...

Pretty stoked today (though my wife is not ๐Ÿ˜‰)!

Got the call for the Omega Speedmaster Moonshine Gold with the green dial and fully gold bracelet.

Didn't expect this one this early in the year...but I am not going to refuse it.

This clearly blows up my "No watches in 2023 resolution"...so now that that's blown...let's see what else comes my way...maybe a VC 222 before the end of the year? (wishful thinking)

Another one off the Watch Wall of Dreams...

Wow! That is a true beautiful watch. I was right that your wish wall soon sits in your watch box. One down.

If you are too right, that could be very dangerous to my bank account ๐Ÿ˜‰

I can't wait to see the wrist shot. I am sure the green is going to pop with that gold.

Serious question, you are one of those rare quality and quantity collectors (I am more of a quantity guy), how you wear your most beloved watches enough? I struggle with this and I have many fewer watches than you. I know that some of your collection is for historical interest. But, you have some grails that would be worn regularly by folks with a five or ten watch collection. I figure that you must have an organizing principle.

That thing is incredible.

This could be one of the nicest watches ever. Congrats on such a beautiful piece.

I am also curious about this too.

Thanks for the kind words.

My organizing principle is based on a Mandelbrot strategy as follows:
