[SOTC] Small/Blue 3 Watch Collection
After a couple of years in this hobby, my taste has moved towards smaller watches. I've always been a fan of blue dials and have hence ended up with this collection of 3. All small watches, but with variety in brand, bracelet type, shade of blue and movement type.
1. Longines Spirit 37mm Automatic: My newest addition and my perfect everyday watch.
2. Tissot PRX 35mm Quartz: Has cool retro vibes and I like the 'pickup-and-use' nature of a quartz watch.
3. Nomos Club Campus 713 36mm Manual Wind: A bit more unique with a nice blue-purple dial colour and orange accents.
What do you think of the collection? Any suggestions for other small blue watches for me to add?

Love it ❤️!! Maybe this one to add..
Go with Seiko, but something smaller. Still 20 bars of WR.
38mm, 46mm lug to lug.
The Longines Spirit is stunning - unfortunately my watch fund keeps getting eaten into whilst I am saving for one myself! Hopefully the green dial will be around when I can afford it.
I must admit lately I am looking at/buying smaller watches, not sure if my tastes are changing, or I am being lead by the market.
Thats a great mini collection - a Farer Lomond would fit the bill, and is different enough to compliment what you already have.
You could also add a smaller blue dive watch like the 38mm Christopher Ward C60 Trident Pro 600

Thank you :) I really like this one. I think there's a willard with a similar look and wears quite well with the cushion case.

Will definitely consider. Reminds me of an old zodiac with the pizza markers haha
Three amazing watches...
How about adding this...the Seiko Prospex Captain Willard Mystic Lagoon:

It's definitely worth saving up for and the green is a great choice! I'll have a look at both but the christopher ward looks interesting. I also get what you mean with the market influencing taste. I feel like my enjoyment of smaller watches comes from their lighter weight and more ideal proportions, but who knows. Maybe the market trend is getting to me too! Haha

I didn't even know that this exists haha. Is this a US exclusive release?
Lovely collection, so far.
How about some German precision in form of a Damasko DS30 blue. Pilot style, 39 mm and your struggle to mark it due to ice hardened case 👍
Yup…I’m about to pull the trigger on Willard oh man I’m in trouble lol
Do it!!!
A lovely collection!
Thanks :)

Thanks! I love the shade of blue
Aweeeeesomeeeee! so cool collection I’m jealous
Thanks :)
Very nice. What size wrist do you have?. love to see them on wrist to gauge if I could wear them.
Thanks for posting
Thank you :) I have a 7 inch wrist and will post some wrist shots soon.
Just got this last week. $425 and it's a beautiful color. I never really liked just the light blue sunburst, but this has a nice texture to it.
That's a nice watch and a great price! I'll definitely look into it :)
The tissot is quite beautiful my friend, congrats!
Thank you very much :)
I got almost the same watches (2/3)
As for suggestion, starting with divers I think Captain Cook (37mm) or Aquis (36mm) would be cool
For daily wear Riviera 36mm or Chronomat 36mm (was mentioned above alrdy)
Beautiful collection you have! Clearly very good taste haha. I'm definitely looking at the blue rado captain cook 37mm as possibly my next watch.
I am not a fan of California dials. The Longines and Tissot are epic. Swap the Nomos out for this and you should be fine.
Thanks :) I'll need to save up for a while haha. It has a beautiful shade of blue.
I truly envy anyone who can rock a Tissot PRX, it just looks so funky on my wrist! I too have been loving smaller watches.
Thanks mate :)
Great collection!
How are you liking that PRX 35mm? Does it feel too dainty? I’m looking at their dark blue version for myself.
Thank you :) I felt it was too small at first, but with most things in life, after some time you get used to it and bigger watches feel weird now haha
If you hit up @HotWatchChick69 for pics of the November auction there is a Yema that will be coming up on a blue rubber strap & has factory bracelet and NATO. You could get this at a good price for a great cause
That NOMOS on the mesh! Wowzaah!

You could probably buy every Nomos or the Journe. That thing is gorgeous.
longines spirit 37mm is the first watch I will buy with my first real pay (I am a student).
This Squale ought to be blue enough!
We should definitely start a club haha. I will definitely look at that seiko, thanks for the suggestion:)
Live the Milanese y’all having it on. Is it oem nomos ?
Something to consider that starts with the theme yet expands it from a dial and limited production perspective. The hunt might also add to the trill :)
Enjoy your watches in good health mate.
