if money was no object, I would probably go with a Rolex Milgauss. Nothing crazy, but I freaking LOVE that watch.

Been a bit of a collector, put my collecting on hold since my son was born though. I currently have a Breitling SO, Seiko Sportura Honda F1, Lum-Tec, as well as several others.

















Currently saving and starting to hint to my wife that I'd like to add an Omega Seamaster auto chrono to the group. (She currently has an Omega SM too!)

I've got a 3105 that I've beat the piss out of for years and, other than replacing a broken strap and battery, has never given me any problems.

Random topic; Bronze Watches

I am digging the look of weathered bronze (and even fresh bronze) watches lately. I think it adds a lot of depth to the case. Has anyone else seen this finish?

This has been my dream watch since I read my first Clive Cussler book 20 years or so ago. Someday life wont interrupt my saving for one

My Wife bought this for me today. Really appreciated especially since I've gotten my job I've had to put ALL of my paycheck into fixing her Car, the Wedding, etc. Well, we owe less than a couple hundred on the Wedding so she surprised me. I've never had an Easter Basket... Ever, so she made me one with this in it. Definite keeper.
