Maybe there is another thread around this but thought it might be interesting to see what you all have on your watch list. I'll start by sharing mine:

Brand Model Average Price
Rolex Milgauss £5,100
Seiko SKX007/009 Oyster £150
Tudor Heritage £2,650
Omega Speedmaster £1,800
Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean Black Ceramic £4,500
Tag Heuer Monaco £3,000
Porsche 911 Drivers Selection £299

Just need to find the £18k to feed the above! rotate

Only thing i can think of at the moment is an orange PO on orange strap. Got a Sochi PO currently (as well as blue faced Yachtmaster, Seamaster Chrono Professional, Tag F1 Gulf, and some old Seikos) but would quite like the orange one to accompany it. Really excited about my Pelagos arriving at some point this year.

Possibly, but I've spotted a UK supplied speedmaster on Ebay for £1.8k and the specific PO chrono with ceramic bezel is £5.5k new, but you can source them for less. I did debate adding the prices into the discussion, wasnt really the purpose of the thread....

Just got two

Patek Philippe Nautilus, either the three hander or chrono
Vacheron Constantin Perpetual Calendar in Pt.

the PP's being £15k to £30k new and the VC being £70k S/H, I've got some saving to do!

A Lange & Sohne Richard Lange in Platinum please, maybe something by Breguet given its heritage, all I know is that I can afford neither.

My tastes are much more modest at present....

1: Speedmaster £1500 (happy to go pre-owened)
2: Tissot Visodate - £280
3: Junghans Max Bill Chronscope - £1200?
4: IWC Portugese £5k?


1-3 I'm reasonably likely to get my hands on in the next 12-18 months i'm hoping.

4. coudl be alittle longer hehe

I had three watch aims for this year, and if I am honest, to effectively complete the collection as I want it to be right now.

They were:
IWC Doppelchronograph 3713
Rolex 1665 Sea-Dweller
Patek Philippe Nautilus Chronoigraph 5980

I have the first two, both were a surprise, both were great deals from Watchfinder and the 1665 is actually a Double-Red AND birth year, massively pleased.

The Nautilus is therefore the only watch goal I have left and depending on some ongoing sales with the help of the ever brilliant Dominic Hackett, I could be well on the way soon.

I am 40 in September and even Mrs yeti isn't so hard-hearted that perhaps an L.U.C. Lunar Big Date in white gold might be an option scratchchin

But then I really am done yes

Good thread. Really difficult to answer, mostly I browse ebay and buy what catches my eye.
But there are a few models on my wishlist and they're a little different from the lists above.

50s/60s JLC. A memovox or powermatic. Or an old ultra thin or just a plain, stainless JLC from this era. Or of course all of the above. Can't help it, I love 'em.

A ***** *********** in a stainless case, not gold (rarer than a rarified rare thing grown in rocking horse do do.)
Sorry, had to mask this one from my list. There's currently one of these on ebay. Wouldn't be sensible to alert you lot.

A Bulova space view.

A Tissot Twotimer, mid 80's to replace a broken one I have in a drawer. The watch is hideous, grey and gold, stripey. Here's a broken one:

At some point I'd also like to get my hands on a couple more Rados. Something from the ceramic line and a Manhatten would be good.

Glashutte made a knock off of the first generation Omega Dynamic. This is the model, although it comes with a variety of differing faces (I'm not that fond of this one).

Liar liar pants on fire!

You, done: never!

I fancy a jumbo PP but just the 3 hander with the blue face. Have to also embrace a bit of JLC at some point, but need to find a 40mm+ and may end up with a rose gold (seeing that I'm now 46 some gold is overdue!)

Black bay during the first 2 weeks In May as I have a cruise departing Barca arriving Rome, too good an opportunity to miss.

I'd love one of these, but it won't be this year (or next)!
