If you could pluck a watch from any other Cruncher .......
This is just for fun. We often see an image posted by a fellow WatchCruncher and respond with the 😍 emoji. Hey, some people here have made wonderful choices and I'd like to thank you all for sharing your photos. So assuming you can take a watch from any other Cruncher and put it into my cloning machine and make one for yourself with no hard feelings to the other cruncher, "Who's watch would you take and explain what you like about it?"
I will start. My first thought would be to get a piece from JaeBust. I could close my eyes grab any watch and I know it will be stunning and total class. I am actually going to go to watchchris and grab his Vacheron Constantin Offshore World Timer because it is an incredible piece. Built by Trinity brand, it has a proper world time complication and is amazingly stylish. Your turn.
My name is Rich and I am building a collection of unique complications. I know it sounds more like the way you start a watch museum and not a personal collection. So far I have a Tourbillion, Retrogra...
I did take a watch from another Cruncher - @Fiatjeepdriver !!!
I'd have to pluck @surferjohn 's Citizen Chronomaster. With that Tosa-Washi dial, it's one of the JDM's best kept secrets.
Since @JaeBust has all of the watches I’d ask you to clone his ALS Lange 1 MP for me. I adore those watches.
I think a couple of you have a salmon-dialled Kurono Tokyo Toki Automatic - that would be my choice. It’s not everyday a modern retro just stops me in my tracks, but goodness me that is a nice watch.
If anyone has a Timex Camper Snow Peak Edition with the 4-7 dial, please let me know.
Won this from TonyXXX 🥳
...and I've seen a few older Seiko 6139 and 6138's that really get me going!!!
I expect to see a lot of @JaeBust here haha
Give me his Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Tribute Duoface Fagliano Limited Burgundy
You can see his most recent post of it here: https://www.watchcrunch.com/wruw/2022-08-08#comment-139317
In addition to many he owns…I would snatch this Citizen from @Candide3693
…and this Citizen Crystron from @Deeperblue
Me? I'd love a real vintage piece; one a grandparent of mine might have worn in their youth, so I'd accept a blind pick from @Aurelian's vault.
EDIT: I know, I know; I post lustful gifs on Speedy posts. So why not a Speedy? Cuz I want to EARN that bad boy.
With the amount of luxury watches being stolen in big cities I might just put my superhero cape on and protect those Watch Crunchers from a lustful thief’s eyes on the mean streets of London, NYC, SF, etc.
did you see this story?

Seconded; wouldn't even need to set the time!
I would snatch the Blue Oyster Quartz I did see in a daily wristshot by I DON'T REMEMBER WHO...
This is fun. It's a toss up:
2) @JaeBust Daytona
@coldkey's Citizen Chronomaster slipped under my radar. That is a heartbreaker! 😎🥰

We wasn't trying to steal it! Read the article! He buried it!
"Welcome to Barca! Mes que un club... wait... what's that on your wrist?"
"Gonna bury it! Can't have my striker wearing something that ugly!"
Won mine through some auction…😌
@Bsblaw has a beautiful GMT Master II
I like this topic and the thinking that it made me do. To those who mentioned some of my watches, I am flattered, but I must be more persuasive than I thought. Mine is a middling collection at best. Perhaps, I am a yarn spinner of sorts. Don't buy the hype.
There are about ten collections here that are amazing in their depth and quality. But I am not always attracted to the shiniest object. No fluted bezel makes my heart flutter.
I think that I go after watches with stories, like this one from @WatchYourIntruder :
I think a clone of that please.
Tough to pick just one but @LumeShot has some great watches too but the one I’d choose from his collection is the SS VC Overseas with the blue dial. One of the best blue dials out there. 🤌🏼
i forget who was posting, but i'll clone any jlc reverso 😂🙏🏻
Fun! I’ll play!
We’ve got some whales among us turtles and tuna who have tons of steal worthy grail watches.
I’ll grab… All of @HotWatchChick69 s watches, I know there are lots of treasures among those…
Also, I’ll save room in the loot sack for @Grrldoc s vantablack!
whoop whoop 🚗 💨

Offer still stands, my friend!
The cloning machine surprisingly is reproducing more $2200.00 Citizens than any other watch. Kudos to them for producing such a beautiful and desirable piece. Crunchers seem to be true "enthusiasts." Everyone wasn't asking for a clone of the most expensive watches, they asked for what impresses them.
#cartier santos medium automatic (sans date)!
Definitely @Proctor1911 ’s Tudor Pelagos FXD 🤣👌 Man, the more I see of the FXD, the more I love that watch.
@Proctor1911 Actually you might be safe! https://www.watchcrunch.com/Calumets/posts/39mm-tudor-pelagos-14746 🤣👍

Holy shit….wow why did I say one watch one year.
I would clone @Relvee Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Compressor Extreme w Alarm #46 Valentino Rossi Titanium Limited Edition.
Limited Edition 1946 pieces. Collaboration with 9-Time MotoGP World Champion Valentino Rossi who retired at end of 2021. The piece has a World Time complication with MotoGP racing circuit SEPANG as one of the 24 cities on it. And of course on the dial is the famous Valentino Rossi Yamaha number 46 in bright yellow.
By the way, Valentino Rossi estimated net worth in 2022 is USD200M 😱

Wow, great choice. That is an impressive watch.

Thanks! But unfortunately, I need to pry open Ralvee‘s dead fingers.
