Let’s Play a Game of Match the Watch or Bust! 🤪
The rules are simple: you post a wristshot of a watch, and I will try to match or better it in the same class and category. This may give you insights about a collector's alternative options and some horology info from a collector's perspective. I await your wrist shots, and let the fun begin! 😜🍻🤪

Nice, another version of the ray from Orient?
Nice colour combo Jae 👏🏻👏🏻

Nice one. Not a fan of the gold bezel but I do like the new Globemaster. Thanks for the suggestion.
I dunno know if that one’s better ;)

Brilliant!! 😁👏👏Presumably this version still had the EL rather than LED backlight? That seems to be something a lot of folks are talking about currently with the updated modules. Same no-nonsense colour way as my updated version but with a stealthy negative display. Great stuff, Sir! 🤝
I fold; I am not that crazy about atypical timepieces! 😔🤷🏽♂️, and when I fold, you see the best in me, kind Sir! 😜🤪 I love the Rolex. I had one ages ago! 🍻
Thank you my friend - I feel honored. I was expecting a Rotonde de Cartier Mystery watch or something else like it to blow the JLC mystery dial out of the water😊
Did you have the same rose gold Prince, or one of the other variants? I like unusual watches, so the Prince really appeals to me.
Well naturally I knew you wouldn’t disappoint 😁
What a splendid round-up you’ve shown here 👏👏
You’ve included a King Square, the orange tones are a near-match to the “rust” colour way of my new King.
Also, does the splendid AW500 case one have a display showing the different multi-band towers or something? That’s wild 😝 What series is this please? I’ve never seen these before 🤩You star, you! 🤝
A watch I dream of acquiring………………
Enjoying this thread and it's all a bit of fun, but I must admit I'm underwhelmed by that KS. Er, isn't it a 2000s reissue? The SCVN001 with the 4S15, which is a nice enough movement but not exactly groundbreaking, and a case/dial design which recycles Seiko grammar of design that's been around since the 60s. Whereas the Hamilton is the solid gold real deal from the 60s powered by the world's first micro rotor movement designed by Buren.
Do your thang
Watches are subjective so, not playing.

AWG-M500KG-3AJF "Army Green Series" or "Army Generals Series." They all have orange stars! 🍻

Thank you, Phil. Yes, it is the old-school EL backlight (with full auto EL light and afterglow function). 🍻

Thank you Jae 🙏 I will definitely look those up….
Another interesting Casio release 😁🤝
Is this the blue Monta noble? I have been longing for this sucker for such a long time
Yes it is
Go for it pal!
