An MR-G B1000 G Shock. Pricey but worth it.

Thanks let me check them out.

A quality dive watch. If you really like Seiko, it’s hard to go wrong with the SB143 and it’s many varients

Do have the SPB077J1 and it is preventing me from buying another dive watch as it is so close to perfect. Maybe a Doxa as it has a case which is different?

·

Doxa would be a great pick. The classic orange dial would look great in your collection

·

That gold Tissot is awesome!!!

I think the box could use some Longines.

·

Mickey Mouse!

·

Maybe I'm biased, but ever collection needs a proper "true" GMT. Jack Mason, Mido and Bulova have good selections in the $800-$900 range.

·

This is a very well rounded collection. I'd add a flieger, maybe in bronze, from Stowa or Laco.

Yes. Don’t have any military or pilot watch.

Glycine airman and Mido are fascinating to me but difficult to get in my country.

Banana enough said 😆. Longines and Oris have become slightly out of my budget range. Whopping increase in price in our country

A Citizen or a Victorinox the two most underrated brands on WC.

À fabulous collection! It's always so great to see variety rather than a whole box of black dials.

I don't think you need much advice on your collecting journey!

Though it can be a minefield, vintage watches are a fun way to increase the variety further. I had a personal rule of only buying vintage watches priced $30 or less on Ebay at first as a way of learning about pitfalls.

But vintage does open up some fun stuff which you can't buy new affordably - mechanical chronos and solid gold watches under $250.

This presage dial is one of the most beautiful dial I have ever witnessed. I also like this one in white dial. Great collection 👍🏼

·

Love seiko. It’s a disease for sure 🤣. The gold tone seiko 5 was a gift from my mom to dad. That’s were it all probably began.

What brands would you suggest from a vintage (dark) side ?
