Personally, I think that’s a really smart looking watch

Agreed. Great watch. By far my favourite colour option of the new OP range. The only one I think is slightly nicer would be the (discontinued) white dial OP39, but that pale blue is really smart.

Not the best pic but my new favourite thing arrived yesterday

Fantastic. The next watch that I want to own...

Just arrived... not unusual I know but I love it.

one of these has been my "daily" for over 20 years now (purchased in 1999)

As much as i love the other watches i have, if i had to liquidate, this is the one that would stay.

mine is a "last man on the moon" Manual Winder that is wearing well for the life it has lead!

Unusual enough for me to not have one yet!

Lovely thing indeed!

My AD knows I’m keen (got a 1991 version, so would be nice to have a pair). But having just had a Batgirl, I think I’ll have to wait my turn.

Well Done! Nice to see some more on the scene.

I have one of these in the post as an early Easter present to myself!

I really like the look of this one, interesting workings (can you call an electric movement a movement?!! ) and a bit of a story behind it as well

Just ordered a Stowa Vintage Flieger Bronze 36mm:





This is with the hand wind movement option (SW215) not the ETA 2824-2 shown above:

Slightly delayed but bought this for my wife just before Christmas. It is a 31mm OP, 2012, pretty much like new, bought from a jeweller in Lancaster and came with box & papers. Paid £3,500 which I thought was not too bad in the current crazy climate, I was looking for a white face and this is one of my favourite dial designs so was quite pleased when I spotted it.

Just collected mine yesterday ... not had a chance to get any wrist time yet. The presentation box is quite something. Its the 42mm Hesalite version as I wanted something more original/traditional feeling.

Really like the look of that; very nicely done

Cheers! I've been told 2-3 weeks as each case is hand finished plus I've opted for the engraving too. Excited!

My first GS, blown away. Only other "big" watch I've had is an Omega Planet Ocean. This is streets ahead.

ETA: no idea why it's sideways but you get the idea

I love GMT watches and that is one stunning watch. I really need to find a Seiko Ad that does Grand Seiko as I think I would like to try one .
Absolutely stunning thanks for sharing

Divers and chronos are my thing! With the arrival of the 321 recently will probably take a break from adding to the collection for a while.

[CQ8]

Lovely collection.

Can you run through what you’ve got?

Thanks! In order of acquisition:

Omega Seamaster Professional 2531.80.00
Breitling Navitimer B01 43mm AB012012/BB01
IWC Pilots Watch Chronograph Edition "Le Petit Prince" IW377714
Omega Speedmaster "Dark Side of the Moon" Apollo 8 311.92.44.30.01.001
Rolex Deepsea Sea-Dweller D-Blue (James Cameron blue to black dial) Reference M126660-0002
Rolex Cosmograph Daytona M116500LN-0001
Omega Speedmaster Calibre 321 "Ed White"/"The original movement that went to the moon" 311.30.40.30.01.001

The last speedy is the most expensive of the bunch, despite being somewhat unremarkable looking on the face of it. The movement is obviously the star of the show and I'm glad they went with a sapphire caseback even though the purists might moan.

Think I might have a new favourite...
