Consolidating

If you could keep 3 watches from my collection what would they be and why? I want to scale down this year and will likely keep more than 3 but I'm curious how people would approach this challenge. I've started selling some watches already and will likely get stuck with some of the more inexpensive digital watches. The 3 watches I don't plan to sell are my Seiko, studiounderd0g, and casioak. Honorable mentions are the vostok and f91 jelly. Let me know your thoughts

Can’t do it! That’s to much pressure and power for one person in my opinion…

Good luck 🤣

I’d keep the Studio Underdog as it looks fantastic and they’re harder to get hold of. The Seiko 5 as it’s a great daily wear and the Cadisen because I like dive watches and would want one in my collection. They’re all great watches though.

Thank you! I followed a similar thought pattern but threw the casioak in because it's my gym watch and the watch I wear around at home because the comfort and backlight

  1. Vostok, because of the cool factor with that design. (Nice watch, Taylor!)

  2. Seiko, for everyday wear without worry.

  3. Blue Casio, for working on the car, yardwork, household maintenance, etc.

Vostok, Casioak and Seiko would be my choices. Don't like the S0 and it'll be horrendously expensive to service (most likely a replacement movement), which should be a consideration with all potential "keepers"

I never part with watches……..

However to answer your question I would keep the following

  • D0g

  • Cadisen

  • Seiko5

  • Vostok

  • Casioak

I Hope you choose well when you do part with them 🤞🏻

Thanks! The vostok is definitely my favorite sleeper pick of my collection

Thanks, you’ll notice that it’s the sports type!

I’m diver mad unfortunately and I do like a chronograph 😂

  1. Studio Underdog - A fun watch to show off since I believe there is an exhibition caseback displaying the manual movement.

  2. Timex - I’d change the strap to a brown leather lizard strap, which would dress it up a bit. I like its simplicity with just that bit of personality with the color numerals. Honestly might be my favorite of the bunch.

  3. Seiko - Not a digital watch guy myself, so this would serve as my daily. I gotta have something on a bracelet, but can imagine putting this on a sailcloth too. Would prefer a black dial, but I am very boring.

I like the selection and could see myself going with this combination. I like having a watch with a backlight because I usually sleep in a watch, the casioak is slightly better for me because I can work out in it too without worrying

If you’re contemplating selling any of them why not all of them so you can have fun buying another 3

Believe me if I had the self control to do that I wouldn't be in this situation in the first place 😅

·

Keep the Studio Underd0g, Bostock,and Blue Seiko. It will cover you for all situations. Formal on Bostock w/leather. Go anywhere, do anything is the Seiko Blue dial. Fun and casual is the Studio Underdog! That is how i would move forward.

Do you have a reference number for that Vostok?

Or do they not come with one? 😂

In any case it’s a gorgeous piece!!!

Thank you! Its the Vostok Retro (Prestige) 581880

Pink’s just not my colour 🤷‍♂️. So it’s the diver for my number 3.

Understandable 😁

·

I just wanted to write my thoughts but you already announced them Seiko, Casioak and SU :) the Vostok is a pretty piece and maybe one more Casio would make a great collection.

·

Not an easy task as you’ve got a nice collection! Looks like you like some color in the collection so for me, the Seiko, Timex and definitely the Studio. Good luck with your choices 🤞

·

Can decide but yes do not let go of the studiounderdOg should stay 👌

·

I am probably in the minority. The three I like most in your collection are your Casio 2100, F91w Jelly and the Seiko 5. I am not a 2100 fan but yours suits you as does the jelly f91w and the Seiko on the right strap suits you well too. I'd keep em all though so there is that.

I think you were the first person to pick that combo, I like it 👌

·

I'd keep the dresskx the Vostok and whatever that fancy looking two tone chronograph on the bottom left, but that's my boring old dad taste.

Id just keep them, put the ones you don't want to wear in a box for a few months, you might miss them. You have cool taste.

Thank you! I dont know how many im going to sell because of the inevitable aforementioned remorse I'm likely to feel but we'll see 😏. Appreciate the feedback 🩷
