[SOTC] 3 Watch Collection
Hi everyone,
This is my first post here and I thought I would start off with a state of the collection. I've recently trimmed down my collection, which consisted of mainly seikos and microbrand watches, and used the cash to purchase these 3. I used most of the funds to purchase the Sinn, which is my first entry into a higher price range. The Seiko and G-Shock are more affordable, but I love the colour scheme of both.
I thought I would ask you watch crunchers (I'm guessing this is the name for the community? Haha), what should I add next? Maybe a divers watch would be a good choice?
Thanks and hope to engage with you all in the future 🙂

As it stood. I had the same 3 watches as you, but different models. I added a hanhart panda chrono. Loving it.
Hi, welcome, looks like you need a divers and a field watch, then there is a chrono and summer watch etc etc I could go on !
Welcome and great choices for your 3 watch collection. The Seiko Cocktail Time is 🔥
Seems like a small concentrated collection that pretty much covers all situations 👍
So with that in mind I'd be careful not to get stuck in the "tick all the boxes" rutt and feel obliged to get one of every type- get something that just floats your boat!
This is the dressy, casual, beater trifecta. Feel free to get something utterly ridiculous from Mr Jones Watch or Tokyo Flash or the like. Or go vintage.
There’s nothing more you need. This a perfect trio.
Now you can wait for something you absolutely love regardless of it fits a category.
Wear and enjoy the heck out of the great watches you have now. Try to be patient deciding on your next purchase. There are so many fantastic choices these days. Take plenty of time to figure out exactly what kind of watch you will be glad in the long-term that you added them your collection. The search is a a big part of the fun of this hobby. Or as davemcc suggested, you may find everything you want is in what you already have.
All good choices and lovely pieces 👍
I made a video on this

Welcome! Gorgeous Sinn. Savor the contemplation stage of your next watch purchase. It's like perusing a menu at a fine restaurant or selecting the locale for your next vacation wherein the dopamine starts to flow even before the course of action fully develops.
That is a pretty solid set of watches you got there 💪🏻
You don't need anything to complete this as you are ready for any occasion and all 3 are great watches. Since you downgraded already I would propose not to accumulate more but save for new and better/nicer pieces to replace these
Thanks :)

Nice! Might check out hanhart too

Nice collection!
I sold my Sinn 104ST … It’s a great watch for a first higher end watch hey , so well made and feels like a tank too… Tegimented submarine steel hoo rah .
It really does feel like a tank!
Welcome aboard…lovely trifecta! 🤙❤️🤙
Thanks and thanks 😊
Wow that G-Shock has amazing color! Speaking of color maybe your next one could have a colorful dial? And if you’re not into that, how about a vintage watch? And of course there are many great vintage reissues or reimaginations
Thanks, it is an interesting colourway (I call it the joker haha). I'm thinking of getting an orange doxa diver, which would definitely fill that colourful niche.
Welcome! You definitely came to the right place! After joining this group I have a lot more fun with the hobby now. Can’t wait to see what ya get next! 👊🏼🤙🏼
Thanks :)
I have more than three watches, but these are the three I wear majority of the time.
Nice, cool g shock 😉
Welcome! That sinn is sweet
Thank you :)
Nice set
Cheers :)

The Doxa is a great choice. I was actually thinking of that very watch after writing the comment. Couldn't find that G-Shock online. Do you know the reference number?

Great collection, I have the seiko in sunburst blue and I love it, have a few g shocks but was looking at that exact one you have, it looks really nice! Wear them all in good health 👍🏻
Nice collection! For me I would have something on a leather strap, with a coloured dial perhaps blue. Enjoy the journey
I will get there one day but that is a nice trio you got there.
