I'm partial to the Movado passed down to me from my dad

Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
 

I wear a Tag Heuer Carrera Chrono every day - perfect for me!

Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
 

I'm a wristwatch junkie...pocketwatches too, but for collecting, this is my only wristwatch that I would consider collectable. An original Elgin BW Raymond from the 60's. It's new old stock with original box, papers and the signed leather band. The band now is stiff from age and will crack if it's bent. Original price was 79.95.

We need to know your budget.

My first (expensive) watch was a TAG, then Rolex, then Breitling. Considering the Anniversary moon watch from Omega right now.

Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
 

Rolex Datejust, 2-tone
Rolex GMT Master II
Omega Speedmaster
Cartier Tank
Boliva Tank, 1943 14k rose gold
Tissot T-touch

Most purchased in the early 70's when wrist watches were much more affordable. Tissot is the newest but it's 5-6 years old and is my everyday watch.

My next watch if still available when Im ready:

Zenith Chronomaster Open Grande

Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
 

Thanks but Im not shopping, got a few that I like and wear pretty regularily :) Curious what other people like and had/have

Next watch will probably be a Ball Engineer

Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
 

My everyday watch is a Citizen Titanium Chronograph (Solar Powered)
Had it for over 10 years and no batteries.

I also have an older Pulsar Chronograph that I no longer wear. About 15 years old.

I wear this one when we go out.

I couldn't find pics of my other 2 watches. And the pic I tried taking with my phone looked blurry.

Just realized all of my watches were gifts from my wife. 2 before we got married.

And I have one that I received for my 5 year anniversary at work. I wear it when I don't want to break or lose me other watches.
Not a bad looking watch, but it was free.

Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
 

mission accomplished! Breitling Super Avenger!

Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
 

The two watches I really want are a Rolex or something by the IWC.

Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
 

I have a Breitling Colt GMT that I bought about 2 1/2 years ago, just after my divorce. Think I might have to replace it soon - getting married next summer.

Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
 

Unfortunately I don't have the cash to be a collector of watches. Someday maybe because I love them. This one gets the most wrist time.

I also get quite a bit of wear from this one.

Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
 

I'd just wear one on each wrist :r

Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
 

I bought this Oris a couple months back. With the rubber strap, it's very comfortable.

Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
 

Breitling Aerospace titanium, had it for 8 or 9 years now and love it, had several others but this one is my favorite.

Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
 

Not a collector but i do like the look of a nice watch.
I have a 'Maurice Lacroix Les Classiques'

Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
 

nope. but someday I'd love a Patek ;)

Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
 

Well, like i said, i just acquired my first breitling (super avenger). the next watch I buy will be a breitling Navitimer World, then a Corum Classical or Corum Admirals Cup 48. I really like Corum as well.

Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
 

I've been wearing the same watch for 10 years now but I still think it's pretty cool. Raymond Weil W1. I think for my next one though I want something a little less chunky and more comfortable.
