Yes I have a list…then new watches crop up and then it changes again.

I changed mine yesterday already 😁 I found the Hamilton champagne dial

·

Haha yes. I have a PowerPoint presentation of my dream watches, so i can convince my wife which of them I need right now. ;)

·

Same here, I got the Speedy, Seamaster AT Terra Cotta, and Seamaster 300 vintage. Feel like that would make the perfect 3 watch collection. Now who’s gonna give me $20k so I can make this happen.

·

Yeah we're crazy 🤪!! I have a list and saved to favorites.

·

Yes, also have made a similar collage of dream watch pictures, together with affordable alternatives 😄

·

Very tasteful, thanks for sharing 👍

That is on another level 😂

·

Mee too I really struggle over 2000 euros and I have lots of them 😓

·

Aye, as quite a few people here I do have a list of sorts. Problem is, no person on this god forsaken ball in space (including myself unsurprisingly) knows which watches it actually contains. Though, that first list worked well for couple inspirations so thanks for that

·

I keep a picture of each watch I already own and the ones I'd like to add in a virtual photo album called "Fantasy".

·

That's a pretty solid selection. The A. Lange is MY dream watch.

·

Yes I have a list. And the Hamilton champagne as well as the junghans are on my list. I have a similar taste. Check out this mido. I like it a better than the Patek you have listed. https://www.midowatches.com/de/multifort-patrimony-m0404073606000.html Perhaps also your flavor.

·

Yip I have a list of watches I will buy (unless my head is turned by something else)

Exactly this! My list seems to change so frequently I might as well not have a list and just stick with collecting what interests me. 🤣

·

My dream is to own the "holy trinity" watches, doesn't matter which model as long as I have one of each.

·

I aspire to this level of obsession. 👀😆

Change the notation under Lange

"If I become really rich". 🤑

If I become disgustingly rich 😁

My wish list is so long, I had to break it down by price range. At the top of my list:

Rolex Submariner 16610LV "Kermit"

Omega Speedmaster "Silver Snoopy"

yes, I have some form of a mood-board where I put my watches. The first row is what I have, or will get in the nearest future. But it's missing a lot of watches, because I was cleaning it up, deleted a lot of stuff and didn't have time to sort everything

·

That RGM looks exactly like a vario trench. So close its suspicious that someone is using another one

·

I started a pintrest account for this specific reason. Having a photo album of the watches I like, helps me appreciate them without necessarily buying them.

·

My list is of the watches I have in my collection instead.

Used keep track of type of movement, stap sizes, Ref #.

Stuff like that.

·

Well... Seems like we are all a bit crazy here in that case 😅😅

2 down, 16 to go...

·

I have a GSheet that I keep updating. 🤪

There is a free phone app called My Watch Memoir. It lets you create a list with details for your current watches and lets you make a wish list too. Seems like a little independent app but really like it to keep all my current watch details in one spot and build my wish/ grail list.

I downloaded it and it's just the app I've been looking for !!! Thank you so much for your advice :)

·

Wearing a maroon Brew Retromatic right now! Excellent watch.

·

For the affordable / attainable watches that catch my eye, I have 12 different Amazon wish lists (organized by brand) but for my dream watches, the list is VERY short. It's two watches.

  1. The RGM Pennsylvania Tourbillon

  2. The Rolex "Pepsi" GMT-Master 16750

I won't say no if someone wants to give me some other, expensive watch, like a different Rolex, a Patek of some sort, an Omega, etc. 🤣

But these are the 2 watches that are in my mind, both in my waking hours, and in my dreams. These two watches have captured my imagination.

1. AP Royal Oak - when I’m rich watch

2. Cartier santos likely M/L - still saving for it, and undecided to go for Santos 100/Galbee

3. Rolex exp2 polar - owned

4. Hamilton khaki Singapore arm force edition quartz - owned

5. Rolex Bluesy - used to be grail watch, still pondering after I tried it on alongside the polar and still find the polar being a better fit.

6. Omega Seamaster 300 x Jacques Mayol green dial edition - owned

Probably 1 more speedie and Panerai 088/111! That’s about it for now. 😂
