SOTC at the end of 2023
This is what I have so far. After perhaps 5 years of inactivity I bought a Steinhart Metropole, a Seiko blue Presage Cocktail time, and a 37mm Longines Spirit. I got as a gift the Root beer Seiko Presage. Finally, I repaired my unnamed Tissot on the red NATO, and the Raymond Weil Freelancer. The only one of these watches that I haven't shared on WRUW is the Patek Phillipe which I am told is from the 60's and desperately needs to be serviced.

I love everything in your collection. I am all about the mid-century modern look.

Loving the Squale and the Longines. 😁

In my mind they are sort of opposite use cases. The Longines is a straight up luxury watch with fine finishing, a great movement and a lovely dial. It is also at the outer perimeter of my financial comfort zone. The Squale however, looks good, has a work horse movement and is reasonably priced--read here cheap. I have been wearing the Longines a lot, but the Squale is really my summer watch.
Wow amazing collection congratulations
Small tiny request, put the blue presage on a leather strap what are you doing man 🥲

Thank you, I admit I am overly fond of NATO bands.
