Wristwatch collectors out there?
Anyone? I've got into it some just looking for something to wear around work and for more formal occasions. Anyone got anything fun?

Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
Right now I dont collect as I don't have the money but I love a nice watch. Ive got a Seiko Chronograph and a Kenneth Cole automatic movt with the moon phase, date, and hour dials, I love it.

Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
I have a few watches from Kenneth Cole, Georgio Armani and Skagen. But I don't collect them I just seem to have aquired them somehow.
I do have a few Swatches from the eighties that are different to say the least! :D |
Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
Not a collector, but love em just the same.

Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
Maybe a rephrase, I certainly dont consider myself a collector but I certainly do enjoy them. I love the self winding automatics, such a cool sound when they are running

Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
Omega. Seamaster, De Ville, and Constellation.

Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
Im happy with my Breitling Crosswind.
|
Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
Breitling B2 here. Love the watch- wear it everyday.
|
Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
I've got a Breitling Navitimer and my grandfathers Patek Phillipe. The Patek is my best watch!
But for some reason I've been wearing a Frank Muller Conquistador Tourbillon Knock-off! Because I tend to bang them around at work. |
Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
I don't really collect watches, but I have more than one now and I would love to have a couple more. So, I guess I could qualify as a collector. My everyday watch is a Breitling B-1 and my "special occassion" watch is a Breitling Montebrilliant Legende.
Earlier this week I was at a Breitling client appreciation dinner and was able to try on a couple of limited/special edition Breitlings including a Breitling for Bentley Flying B which was all yellow gold and diamond encrusted. I believe the retail value on that one was almost $200K. :eek: |
Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
That dinner must have been quite some gala...
Glad that you could go.. 200K on your wrist.... whew.. I love to play off watches now and again. I seem to lease them as I turn them over fairly frequently.. I just had this Glycine Combat relumed at IWW. Wonderful watch. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...S/IMG_5693.jpg Hacks, winds, is automatic, glows nicely now. Tom |
Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
Anything by Armani will do you well for day/night wear.

Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
For dressier occassions, I have a Burberry Chrono. For daily use, I stick to my Timex!
|
Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
I've got several lower end watches (michael Kors, Kenneth Cole, etc)
My goal is to buy a Breitling Super Avenger or Navitimer in the next year. Anyone get a slick deal on breitlings? |
Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
I bought this Rolex Date on the old CS and haven't had it off my wrist since.

Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
No big collection but I do love and appreciate fine watches. I do have 3 Hoyers (Pre-Tag) that I cherish but one of them no longer works and can't get parts. BOOO TAG, would not invest a large sum in one if they are not going to provide long-term parts availability.

Re: Wristwatch collectors out there?
I love my Omega Seamaster and wear it most of the time, but I have a Luminox Navy Seals that I wear as well
