My current collection. Looking at a sub 3000 chrono but not sure what to go for. Any recommendations would be appreciated! On a different note considering oris pointer date next year. Anyone got any thoughts on them?

For £3000 it's gotta be a Speedmaster, the ultimate iconic Chronograph!

Pointer date is lovely too 👍🏻👍🏻

Very nice collection mate, I'd take the top 3 on the left 😍👏🏻

Is it possible to get a speedmaster for £3000. Because the speedmaster professional are definitely above that price with papers and box and in good condition.

On eBay UK there's lots of mk2 Speedmaster, or could go for a reduced. That'd be my choice as I prefer automatics.

Good luck 🍀

Speedy reduced FTW

How about the Longines Tuxedo Chrono:

Great watches

·

I really like my Norqain

Image

And my Le Jour

Image

And if you get one of them you might still have cash left for this

The Longines Tuxedo above is a great shout, but if that's too retro/dressy, their Avigation BigEye is a fan favourite for a reason.

Great collection. I can't recommend Hanhart enough for your potential chrono. I'm a bit biased but I think a Hanhart Flyback would look great in that lineup and they're under 3000. As for the Oris, maybe go with the green Pointer date.

Thanks everyone! Really appreciated.

·

The Speedy Reduced has a lot of options to consider under $3K...

Image

However this usually more expensive colorway is the one that lives rent free in my head...

Awesome collection! Since you have a sort of aviation/military thing going on with that Khaki Field, Lunar Pilot, and Flightmaster (all 👌👌pieces btw) maybe look at the Longines Avigation Bigeye chrono.

I came here to say Big Eye but Hanhart is absolutely a great choice.

BCPD. Always tempted to spend on one of the standard versions, but I kind of have this thing about not having more than one of any model.

I'm a fan of that titanium Big Eye. It might be a hair over 3000 but soooo worth it.

They look great.

One of the best collections I've seen here! Well thougtht out, versatile and I absolutely love that brown Longines conquest. If they make a 38mm version of it I'd be all over it

·

What a fantastic collection, congratulations!!! 😇

·

Hanhart 417 is the best. For diff design I would go with something from Longines like big eye or one of the bicompax ones, all pure class

·

Nice collection! Especially like the Willard, Conquest and Ranger 👍🏼 What size is that conquest you have? Doesn't look like the 41mm 🤔

Have to second Hanhart for the Chrono 👌🏼

·

Id go Hanhart.
