One-movement collection 😎

vianney1

Is this even a concept in the watch world?

I recently realize that my favorite watches in my collection are the Seamasters with the 1120 movement and assimilated:

  • The 2254.80 'Peter Blake'

  • The 2255.80 'Electric blue'

  • The 2531.80 'Bond'

  • The 2234.50 'GMT 50th anniversary'

I then decided to go all in and to shrink my collection to this 1120 movement (and assimilated - the GMT is the 1128). Those pieces are thin, robust, beautiful, easy to dress up and down, and still ~accessible.

I will sell my other watches (Rolex, Seiko, Alpina, Yema, Vulcain) and maybe only keep the Rolex Explorer. And then add to the one-movement collection:

  • The 2231.50 'Titanium'

  • The 2538.20 'Great White'

  • The 2532.80 - same as Bond but with the aluminium bezel.

I think that I will avoid the ones refering to the Americas Cup. I am just really curious to try the titanium one...

Let's see how this go! 😅✅

Is there any other one-movement collectors here? If yes which one?

And who are the 1120 amateurs here?

Thank and enjoy your week-end as well as your watch journey overall 🙏🏻

Indeed!!

With this concept I am trying to play around the "one-watch collection" approach and to be able to say that my collection is quite limited 😉

Good point on the NH35 yes 🙏🏻
