SOTC 2023 - what's next?
Here's my current collection. The bottom row aside from the GO are my wife's. The latest edition is the Tudor ceramic black bay, which I'm loving and hasn't left my wrist since I got it. Used to have a speedy but just sold it since it wasn't getting any wear.
Omega Planet Ocean Chrono - This was my first mechanical watch. The orange aluminum bezel just pops.
GS shunbun - This watch made me fall in love with grand seiko. Probably gets the most daily wear out of everything.
GO Panomaticlunar - The finishing on this for the price is insane. And it's just a classy dress watch.
Green Seamaster Diver 300 - I was never really into the Seamasters till this color dropped. Was on my wrist whole summer.
Vacheron Overseas Dualtime - when I first saw this watch I didn't like it that much due to the asymmetry of the dial. But it just kept growing on me till it surpassed the regular blue dial overseas. I feel like overseas is the most versatile of the integrated bracelet watches. Can just take this whenever I travel and switching the strap handle every situation.
GS night birch - love the dial. Usually keep it on a leather strap and with it being titanium wears so well.
Tudor Black Bay ceramic - I never planned on getting a tudor but walked in the the boutique on vacation and saw this for the first time and just couldn't get it out of my head. Probably the only Tudor I'll get from their current collection.
I'm not really yearning for anything else right now. Maybe if my number comes up for an Ed White or the Snoopy but trying to take a break from buying and enjoy these. But curious what others think I should look at.
Welcome to my WatchCrunch profile.
Great collection! Thanks for sharing
I think you should take a look in the fridge, grab a beer, and kick your feet up… wonderful collection man! Enjoy until you get that call! 💪
Excellent collection 😎
That pink casioak is fire!
Very nice collection. You should be good.... For now. 🍻
The shunbun is stunning, the GS's and vacheron really stand out 😍
Great collection! if you need a suggestion I would say a nice pilot's watch or field watch. You can tackle two watches in one getting a Pilot's GMT. Longines or Glycine Airman it would be a good addition.
You like color and style. Embrace it. What you can do is look for nice straps to give each a new look, one of the best ways to expand it. Your pocketbook will thank me. Very nicely done.
Your missing something... ROLEX, where is your Rolex? Don't be a hater, there are still the best watches made
Great collection! Enjoy the watches.
Great collection! Great diversity 🙌
That GO, Tudor & Seamaster for me are all on point 👌
Excellent collection, great pieces you have there, I don't think you need to buy another watch but if you do I personaly like and think a Cartier Santos all steel go perfectly in your collection
Wow 🤩 lots of great watches
Great collection you've got there! Personally, if I had your collection, I would look into red/yellow gold for the diversity. The play of light you get from those watches is something else. Like you, I have a rather small collection with only one watch in red gold (0 in yellow). I wear it a lot, and still feel the need for more for diversity's sake. The beauty of it is that you can go both dressy (e.g. Patek Calatrava), sporty (e.g. Daytona on oysterflex) or a combination (VC Overseas). Watches like this exist in every price category, from the Orient Bambino/Tissot PRX in the cheaper categories, up to the pricier ones mentioned above.
Whatever you decide, you can't go wrong! This is a great and tight collection: It shows you have your own taste, it's relatively free of hype watches and hype trends. Let us know what's next, whenever you decide 😁
🔥
Great collection! Very diverse.
What’s next? Boot the Mrs’s collection out into her sock drawer and make some space for yours…
Honestly mine steals all my storage space no way she’s taking any of my box up 😂😂🙌
Have I just heard the mic drop sound??
If she was a watch person she'd be jealous 😄
My gosh you have such heavy hitters 😍🤩
I like your well curated collection. The VC and GO are spot on. A JLC would fit perfect in your box. Well done. Cheers!!
Great selections all! Get your wife a real watch though for Christmas 🤣
Your missing something... ROLEX, where is your Rolex? Don't be a hater, there are still the best watches made
I'm certainly not a rolex hate and appreciate what they do. But for me personally there are so many other associations with the brand name I don't like what that says to others in terms of wealth and showing off. Atleast in my circles.
Having said that I do really like the rolex explorer.
Great selections all! Get your wife a real watch though for Christmas 🤣
Haha working on that. She's just not that into them but I think the cartier was a gateway drug.
What a collection 😯
PS! A friend of mine has a planet ocean with what I assume is the same bezel. It does indeed pop off very nicely. I actually took a photo of it yesterday (picture attached), great piece 👌
Yes that's the non chrono version. The aluminum bezels just have a different vibe than the ceramic ones
Beautiful collection 😍
Love the VC nonchalantly chilling in the corner
Great pieces of great style, really take a break enjoy what you have until you get either the call or the itch...
Decent collection mate, congrats 🍾
