Halo watch

[rockandrollmark]

Has this been done before?

What's your money no object / could find one in a snap if you wanted one watch? The one timepieec which couldn't be surpassed in your collection.

I'll have a rosegold / slate dial IWC Portugese chrono please - perfect blend of understated class, style and quality for me.



I guess for the timebeing I'll just squint really hard when I look at my seiko.

A Jaeger Le Coultre Master Control series watch, not sure on the exact model, but the Master Hometime would do for now...

I've got 2:

JLC Master Grand Reveil



and my favorite Vacheron Constantin American 1921

Nice pick. I have this in rose gold w/ cream face.

Easy. First issue IWC Grand Complication. Given the question it had better be the platinum one ... :

Lange & Sohne Datograph Flyback.

Halo watch would be this:



But barring a Euromillions rollover jackpot win I won't ever be getting one. And of course, this would be just one of the 10 or so watches that are in my fantasy collection!

I think we have similar tastes! Mine would be a Master Compressor Chronograph or a Master Compressor Diving Chronograph:





... or a Glashutte Panomatic Reserve

[LukeBird]

^^

It would definitely be a JLC for me... although I see more and more I like! PP are nice, but not quite for me...

[SimNugget]

Think I would split the money on two:

Rolex Daytona Paul Newman White face (black sub dials)
Hublot Big Bang Senna edition II.

Completely different watches and styles.

But within 6 months I would want something else!!

[sneijder]

Navy Seals GMT Chrono for me :



... and a Cartier XL Skeleton Square Tank, for 'best' :

[Debaser]

Money no object? I'd probably go and get something like this Richard Mille Tourbillon RM012


Or this Greubel Forsey


Or both of them.. and a Rolex Submariner no date, Omega Moonwatch, IWC Portugese Automatic, Grand Seiko Spring Drive Diver, Vacheron Constantin Overseas Dual Time....

[Animal]

Ah, the grail watch? Easy: either an AP Royal Oak Offshore Chrono (25721.ST.etc - not that I've memorised it!) or Patek Philippe Cal. 5070 in rose gold.

[sneijder]

I'll have a Seiko Spacewalk while I'm at it.

[Pesty]

Oh yes. Nice one Don

[rockandrollmark]

Don, I really like that but what is it. It barely even looks like a watch.

The RM's, I just don't get them. I know the engineering is top drawer and you need a lottery win to afford one, but I can only find them 'interesting'. Fortunately the fact that I don't really like them isn't going to be the only prohibitive factor in getting one on my wrist.

[tertius]

I would find this very hard to decide, probably either a Greubel Forsey Double Secret:



or a Jaeger-LeCoultre Grande Complication a Triptych:



Not sure I would actually wear either ...
