If your life depended on it 😂 and you had to choose for an Awesome-Twosome

The ProPilot is the biggest surprise addition to my curated collection. What’s yours!?

You don't see many Pro Pilots on here. And I'm really not sure why.

Yeah. Not as popular as the Pointer date or Diver 65.

Love a Milgauss GV. Are you just showing us a sexy watch or was this an unexpected pick up?

as per the thread title, pick two. I’m assuming it meant from current collection

More to @raytwyce ’s question, I’ll post a lengthy story about an unexpected addition in the next month or so. (I’m trying to follow the Zach Kazan of W&W formula of “secretly” owning a watch for a bit without social media influence/reward.)

I agree with others saying Big Crown Pros aren’t on here much but I really DO like them. How did this one end up unexpected in your collection?

Honestly my fav Rollie. They’re not overhyped, easy to find in good shape, and just quirky enough.

If I could only pick two?

I have always been curious about the Propilot with the grey dial but the L2L was a deterrent for my smaller wrist. I found one for sale in the forums for a fantastic price and worn very little, an impulse purchase. It’s the most legible watch I’ve ever owned, the sunburst grey dial is sublime, it’s a thin watch with aggressive turned down lugs that go past the often bulbous casebacks of some watches. It seats firmly on the wrist and just feels right. It’s a 2019 model so it‘s the last of the painted dials as the newer ones have raised applied numerals. It also sports the older push button bracelet clasp. I have no issues reaching for it out of my small collection. Build quality and finish is consistent throughout the watch. The only knock is the lume but whatever. Damn, I didn’t realize this would be a mini review. But hey, now you know!

Indeed it was intended for two watches from one’s current stable.

If those were in my watchbox, it would be difficult. Thanks for sharing!

My Terrific Twosome would be my Glycine Airman and my Citizen Eco-Drive Darth Vader

Glycine looks like the Death ⭐️ Thanks for sharing!

What's a "curated collection" and why is it different from any other collection?

I almost went with this instead of the Seamaster, but in the end, I would choose two different brands.

·

While I think I would pick another Pilot's watch I think this is a good match for Air and Sea.

Digging that pair: The cotton candy dial helps to soften up that Sinn. 👏

Perhaps it’s no different than any other collection, it’s just that I keep to a core 6 watch. Based on;  dial color, case size, diver, pilot, field, all in an attempt for a diverse collection in a small footprint.

Great pair. I’ve never tried an Alpina but like the Propilot, I’ve wanted to. Thanks for sharing!

Milgauss is so sweet.

I guess the two above for now, one that does everything and one that just looks pretty 😂

·

It‘s always the pretty ones that get you in trouble 🤣 Thanks for sharing!

If id have to keep them forever I don’t think I have the two yet but out of my watches it would be these two

Image

The baby Alpinist looks Awesome and can do it all. love it 

Image

This one has the ST19 movement which looks awesome. The watch itself could also be dressed up if needed. 

·

I’ll probably pick my Oris BCPD and my Ginza Alpinist… Indeed I wear these two the most 😎

·

Here's my awesome twosome. If I had to bring my collection down to its final two pieces, these would be it. They're even together in their own case. Not very original, I admit, but the classics never look bad.

I like your awesome twosome. Solid picks and fits a common theme.

Here’s mine:
