Happy New Year - SOTC 2023
Goodmorning Crunchers. Here is my collection thus far to cap out 2023. I've mentioned in the past that I need to pare down my collection however upon further thought I've decided to go in another direction.
I will keep my current collectiom but going forward I will be more strategic with my purchases and focus on pieces that really resonate with me. Impulse buys, specifically mircronrand watches have been the issue. Not that their is anything wrong with them, however everytime I buy one the goal posts move further away with a watch I initially had my sights set on.
If I would have exercised patience and discipline I would have had enough money to buy another entry level luxury piece. Hopefully this new strategy and my learnings can help other enthusiasts to stay grounded and disciplined.
Below are the watches I will focus on for 2024 (in no particular order):
1. Hanhart 417 ES Flyback Reverse Panda 42.
2. Alexander Shorokhoff Neva Green.
3. Unimatic Chronograph Modelo Tre U3-FFF.
4. Omega Aqua Terra. Have yet to decide on a color.
Here's to another great year for all enthusiasts 🍻!!
Early to being a watch enthusiast. Enjoy the history of horology as much as I do the hunt for the next timepiece. I enjoy striking up conversations with folks I don't know and finding out what drew th...
Great Collection! Definitely The panda 417 would be a great pick up for 2024.
Love to see Invictas and a wooden watch amongst all the heavy hitters you have there! Great collection

Trying to have an eclectic and or diverse collection. Thanks Illya 🙏.
As Julia so eloquently put it in Pretty Woman: “Holy shit!” That is one heck of a collection. Hope you succeed in your strategy - all four are worthy pieces to add 💪🏻
Wow you have really really nice watches D. I mean I have seen most of your WRUW but it hits different when you see the whole team like this. 🔥
Love the Speedy on the red alligator strap. Looks fire. 🔥

With the Omega AT, are you going for one of the Shades model? Also, of your collection, absolutely love that Panerai with the blue leather strap! 👌🏻
Awesome Danilo! There are so many outstanding timepieces in your collection it must be hard for you to choose a daily. If I had to call out a pair -- the Vulcains are exquisite. One day you will have to tell me your source. Wishing you and your family a happy, healthy and prosperous New Year!
Nice collection! I have had similar thoughts about my collection. Also nice focused list for 2024!
Thanks Kenny. it's always good to know that your not the only one and the strategy is a sound one based on feedback. Happy New Year to you and your family!

Couldn’t get yourself to sell them huh? Haha definitely smart strategy!
Yikes! What a sweet mix! Not sure what direction I'm going in for 2024 but pausing to reflect makes all the sense in the world. Happy New Year and thanks for the quality and nature of your posts.👍

Yessss!! Looks great! What being an enthusiast is all about brotha🤙🏽
A gorgeous, diverse collection Danilo!
Some big-time heavy hitters mixed in with some approachable beauties as well! I can appreciate your strategy (I personally have no heavy hitters and fell completely down the microbrand rabbit hole!).
You also have some lovely new additions that I adore!
I want to say your Breitling may be my favorite piece, but my heart says it’s that great Invicta that your son gave you❤❤❤
