My humble 5
These are probably my main watches. I have several other watches that have been gifted to me and watches that are in the box, but I find myself constantly struggling picking between these 5. I like them because they all have different movements too.
Tissot t classic III, day date complication with an ETA 2824 base. 39mm, 19mm watchgecko strap, my go to dress watch.
Casio G-Shock gmwb5000rd. The full metal red square on a negative display. A lot of people complain about negative displays being hard to read, and they can be, but I love the look of it.
Hamilton khakis field auto, 38mm with the h10 movement. One of my first automatics I chased after when getting into this hobby. Still looks great.
Seiko PADI Pepsi turtle on a strapcode endmill bracelet. I love a scissor clasp. This was actually gifted to me by my wife. So thoughtful. This isn't living anytime soon. Truth 4r36 movement. Nothing fancy but gets the job done.
Alpina Startimer pilot 40mm with the titanium finish. Sw200 movement, a little fancier than the ETA. I watched top gun maverick, told myself I needed a pilots watch. IWC is outside my budget.
All on top of my "rare watches" coffee table book.
Looks like a great starting 5 with coverage for all occasions

I'm glad you see it that way too. I had a moonSwatch, realized I'm not a chrono guy. 3 hand with date is enough for me.
Great collection, with plenty of variation for different use cases/fancies.
Looks good. I really like the Star Timer. That watch needs more hype!
That red square looks amazing. First I've seen in that colorway
That’s a well rounded collection. Air, land, sea, dress and funky. Great choices.
I also like that you used humble in its proper context. Most of the time people introduce their “humble” collection and it’s four hype Rolex and a Patek. LOL
