SOTC 2023
So after re-igniting my love of watches about two years ago, here's where I stand.
Left to right: Homemade Willard, 1997 original SKX009, Straum Opphav (Damascus steel, limited edition), Baltic Aquascaphe and finally my Black Bay Heritage 41.
Glaring omissions: my homemade fliegur which I have apart on my workbench and I'm still waiting on my Studio Underd0g to arrive (Desert sky).
As can be seen, I've a thing for dive watches having been an avid sports diver back in the day, I still like to sea swim so purchasing a watch that can't go for a dip is... not easy.
Next big purchase is either a D.Dornbluth & Sohne 99.1 or a Junhans Max Bill full chrono. Any suggestions? All comments welcome :)
Bought my first watch aged 12 when on holidays when all the other kids spent their money on sweets, I just wanted a watch.
Nice collection
Like your style 👍 for me just a dress watch would be missing. Although the Tudor is borderline. But if you don't need a dress watch. All good. Enjoy
Very handsome looking collection. I really like the strap choices. The Stradur really pops. (Wasn’t aware of this brand before.)

I think that's the lighting, it's a Straum :)

Roger that. That or possibly just me straining my sleepy-tired eyes on my smartphone screen. I’ll look into Straum. Thanks.
