Trading up: how I found myself wearing platinum

While there are lots of watches that could be your one and only GADA, if you really want an Explorer then nothing else will truly scratch that itch. Go for it!
I’m really hoping for a 40s/50s Tri Compax redux. Breitling’s already shown they can still make a classy calendar chronograph…
I did this, but luckily had a donor Seiko movement I could steal a balance assembly from! Now it’s running like a track star at +2 sec/day with a very healthy amplitude.

I remember looking at Christopher Ward when I first started getting really into watches 6 or so years ago because of the ‘value proposition’, but none of the designs really clicked with me (and still don’t).
I really admire Oris for their independence, history, and variety of designs, but haven’t found the ‘need’ for one in my collection.
But Nomos. Ah, Nomos. I’m not entirely sure when I first came across them but boy did they make an impression. I finally had a chance to see some in person and try a few on, and I’m pretty sure the next watch I but will be a 35mm Tangente. Just such subtle brilliance, and a dress watch that I can feel good about wearing in many other situations.
