Sick,

That looks like a well balanced collection to me - something that suits any occasion. Also a good range of case sizes (this is something I get stuck in, I usually keep everything between 36 and 38mm which keeps me experiencing some cool watches)

Also, can't go wrong with a drawer full of Casio's!

great taste sir!

Yo have cover all your bases

It's a very cool collection IMO. Gun on head if i had to add - A nice white dial black leather strap dress watch will balance out the collection well

38-40mm suit me the best but if it catches my eye I wear it. Thank you for your thoughts

What are your thought on an aquaterra as a dress watch? As of now i use my Murph as a dress watch usually. Maybe i ahouldnt haha

You already have a nice collection sir... keep on adding pieces that you love.

·

Both my long term/special occasion watches will be an Omega and Longines

·

The collection looks very nice.

Some different color dial may be good. What about the Hamilton Khaki King beige (gold ish metallic) dial? Or an Islander Red/Burgundy dial?

Great job so far! 🥳

·

I love that you also have a Waterbury a couple of CWTs!!

·

Keep it up- love the ones u have!

·

Maybe add some color and internesting dials

That’s a very nice collection. You’re obviously a Casio fan and there’s nothing wrong with that. I really like that Mido and the Seagull chronograph, I’ve considered getting both of them. I like that you’ve got a nice microbrand with the Baltic, I’m a big believer in microbrands, and if you want some that have some interesting dials maybe look towards: Zelos, Nodus or Echo/ Neutra. Otherwise I’d say just keep buying what works best for you. 👍

·

Ah, I see that you have a Sea-gull 1963, as opposed to any other manufacturer who buys their movements.( It has two lines of text on the bottom half of the dial.) The copy/ real thing is an odd situation.

I am so confused by what is real or not when it comes to seagulls

Too afraid to get wild with color.

That's funny, the only watch I have twice in my collection oa also the AE1200! Very nice collection by the way.

·

That’s a cool looking collection with a good variety. Like the casios and the Mido (an under appreciated brand in my opinion) 👍🏻👍🏻

Very nice. I would consider adding a vintage (style) dress watch that is slim and elegant. Then again, you could always use your gold Casio!

My gold casio is what i wore for my wedding pictures. My wife loves it.

Nice.... Just ditch the Apple watches and you've got a good connection there. I do like the Mido 🤙

Apple watches are my hiking/working out watches but i get it haha

They are so cheap and offer so much they may be one of my favorite.

I think an Aqua Terra makes for a great dress watch.

·

I really like your collection, it’s varied but has a clear retro feel to it. I think the Murph is versatile enough to be a dress watch. What kind of Omega/Longines watch are you looking at?

I love the aquaterra and the longines spirit. Thank you im glad you mentioned the murph as it is my absolute favorite between all of them. And i do enjoy the retro feel of the collection so im glad you were able to notice that.

I've had a few smart watches but now sold them except my Galaxy Active 2 as it's the Golf edition which is the only time I wear it. I appreciate some people like smart watches but even though I work with tech in the tech industry I never felt that the smart watches do enough to make them worthwhile other than advise me that I've got messages/emails/calls!

I understand if you want the fitness tracking etc that is something they do well but, without sounding like a 🍆 I just find them soulless and a bit of a gimmick for what most use them for.

As a collection I think it is good, as others have said well rounded some complications some colour in there too. You are missing a dress watch but looking at your collection it seems you like more robust watches so the Hamilton will work for that role.

You’re your own best guide. Look at what you wear and sell the ones you don’t.

I mostly use the Hamilton as my dress watch. But i hear you. I guess I haven’t really defined a dress watch well.

Get something more traditional you'll be happier for it. The AT 38mm white dial is a God tier watch but you have a lot of tool watches

It only needs to be as dressy as you need, personally I only need a dress watch about once a year so it doesn't need to be that dressy or it won't get enough wrist time so I'm aiming for the Nomos club sport for mine.

Naw !! You are doing Fantastic ! Nice array of Watches !!!
