First ever SOTC…

I’ve always been wary of doing one of these. You see many with so many high end watches, subconsciously it makes you think “is mine even worth putting up” so I’ve taken the leap and here’s my collection… thoughts are welcome as always

Plenty of variety there, and any collection is worth showing.

Well rounded 👍🏻👍🏻

That's an excellent collection man! Clear brand focus ofc, but still well rounded and diverse, with some very nice pieces in there. Since the Gshock, diver and Seiko sport watches categories are well covered, perhaps a (vintage) Seiko on a leather strap as next step?

Thank you! I was quite nervous putting this up given some of the wonderfully high end collections people have

Now that’s an idea…. I am restricted a little by my stupidly large wrists hence why most are on the larger size… do you have any suggestions? I’m always happy to be nudged to another purchase 😂

Thank you! I guess it’s my collection and that is how I should view it. Some of the ones I’ve seen on here are insanely good!!

Don’t worry about it, we have varied tastes and budgets. I just saw someone post about their Timex collection that almost looked like a museum or store. It was very impressive.

Square!! Great Seiko collection!

I could also learn how to take better photos which would help enormously, but I’m an old dog who doesn’t learn many new tricks nowadays 😂😂

Thank you! Bit one sided on the style and brand of watch I know, but still, it’s mine nevertheless

Amazing collection! I'm glad to see another person who thinks that having a few Willards is not a bad idea! ;-)

One can never have too many Willard’s can you! 😂😂

They do say that size doesn’t matter however….😂😂😂 thank you though!

Sorry, it was an attempt at a joke relating to the Seiko monsters

In all seriousness. That’s a lovely collection.

Oh it’s ok, my response was entirely jokey so no need to apologise at all!

That’s a hefty load. Seiko boss.

I’ve got a Cartier tank, but it’s kept somewhere safer than my bedroom, I do tend to look at dress watches, and go to the extent of popping into an AD and trying them on, but with 8 1/2” wrists they just don’t talk to me… I think that’s why I gravitate towards the dive watch more than anything else. I’m open to any suggestions you may have though as far as alternative styles, hardly need an excuse to buy another watch do we 😂

Cartier does make the Santos in some larger flavors as does JLC the Reverso. Heck Ebel back in the day made some unique shaped pieces and very large.

Thank you! For day to day stuff you simply can’t beat G Shock can you. They are the very definition of a beater aren’t they

Easiest watch to wear, one of mine comes out 1-3 times a week when I just want a break and don’t need to think about it. I actually tend to wear other mechanical watches in active beater scenarios, but wear my Gs when I want a light and comfy easy forget it piece, or as a back up travel watch and alarm.

Wow , You have like 30 seikos , that Will get You Lost of thumbs up on watch crunch. Great collection! I prefer the casios. My favorite in your collection, the metal 6900 .

They do everything I need in a watch, and that sentence alone should make me wonder why I collect others at all, but that’s a far too sensible a way to think isn’t it 😂😂😂

Thank you! Can’t deny I’m a bit of a Seiko fanboy can I 😂😂😂 I am trying to diversify but then Seiko release another dial I love and off I go again on the seemingly never ending Seiko merry go round 😂😂😂 the 6900 is one of my favourites too… I love the MIP displays they’ve brought out recently, the screen is so crisp!

Mine is negative display 😔, but Even Rolex lovers stare at it.🤫😃

That’s a beauty mate!!

Don't worry about what others think. As long as you're happy, that's all that matters. In other words, great collection.

Thank you! The WC crowd definitely removed any trepidation I had, what a friendly supportive bunch!
