Fun topic! I was impulsive but then I ended up with watches I didn’t love. More so, watches that were not comfortable. Now I’m very thoughtful. I intend to keep everything I buy and add one per year. I make a list and then narrow it down and try to limit redundancy. I also focus on pieces I would wear often instead of special occasions. Now I realize this part isn’t normal, but I incorporate watches into my New Years Resolutions! I know that’s weird.

Fun post! It’s not happening for me but Daytona 37-38mm would be amazing. There are also a few independent brands that I wish make something smaller like Moser.

No. Keep them coming. The funniest posts.

I’d watch videos, read articles, and search on a site like Chrono24 by price, whatever price range you’re in. See what catches your eye.

I think you have great taste. Bases covered. The GS is my favorite.

Wow that’s amazing. What a watch.

No smart watch here. I’m in my 40’s. I’m not important enough to need one. I think when you’re talking with someone and they look at their wrist it’s ignorant and distracting. I’ll know I’m not getting my steps in when my pants don’t fit. And I’ll know who called when I check my answering machine.

Personally I don’t think it’s the cost, it’s how much you enjoy the watch, and who it’s from. The $200 Tissot from my Grandfather means more than the Patek’s I’ve owned.

I don’t often carry a phone so I check my watch for the time and date. I know that’s rare. But definitely accessory too, just something I enjoy having and wearing.

I like the OP. The green is really cool. Also the green President (not olive) is amazing.

Franck Mille

12-13 watches including three Rolex, three Omega, two Tudor, and a bunch of singles. I think I counted brands (owned, previously owned) one time and I was north of 20.

I love that Zenith BTW! My grail in a late 70’s or early 80’s steel Daytona. Silver dial.

Speedy. Tudor (model depending on your size preference but 54 or 58 are awesome and leaves you money for a second watch) I’d check out Grand Seiko and IWC too. Lots in there under that price target.

Lange, JLC, or an independent brand. Or vintage, if the person is young.
