Collecting for almost 20years and obsessed with watches for a lot longer. Not a flipper - more a buy and keeper. Not a huge collection - but they’re all much loved. Have more watches that I’m sure I could give a great home to, so always on the look out.

Absolutely! So many watches that stand out from Tudor. I was looking at the Pelagos 39 with some serious intent before the Monochrome landed. The Pelagos is a modern classic, and is still on the short list.
Thanks Swim. Really thoughtful advice. I genuinely believe this Tudor is something pretty special, but the Sub really does have something about it that I just don’t know if I can pass up!
Pass on both I’m afraid. Love the idea of the YachtMaster, but 40mm is by far the better size. The GMT is simply dull.
Amazing watch!! Afraid I’ve not taken to Squale before seeing your watch, but both the design and the story are a marriage made in heaven. You really should share this with TGV, as he’d go bonkers for this piece.

The one I didn’t buy, but why?
I wasn’t looking for this watch, it came looking for me. As a YouTube watch content addict, the Omega CK859 started to pop up in my feed from a number...
