Just a little thread for those to put watches they desire in and to get some ideas! Price point doesn't matter as we are all of different means.

Currently i'm drooling over a couple of Omegas, find myself looking at them daily. But I'm some way off owning either currently.

This:

Which I think would match perfectly with my other toy:


REALLY want this:


For when I win the lottery:

I've always said this would be next. I reckon I could justify it for my 40th in 3 years time! That said, it's a difficult choice between this and the more traditional looking PanoMaticLunar ...

Glashutte Original PanoInverse XL


I've always had a soft spot for the Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Compressor Diving Chronograph GMT Navy SEALs, which could also be an option. I'm not sure it'll age as well over time though:



I'd really like ... (Maybe in time!)





Lottery win ...





... or a Kari Voutilainen. My mind changes! hehe

Ooh, yeah I like that. I mean this in a good way, it’s like a wrist mounted time machine from the Victorian era.

Lots of the watches I sold & now regret.

I'd love a JLC Duometre Chrono as posted above + a Ressence Type 3

I quite like this. Not a particularly fancy brand, but it's interesting looking.

Its so "plain" but I think its the coolest watch in the world.

I'd really love a Rolex Explorer 1016, specifically a late one with solid bracelet (rather than folded steel) and the later lock clasp - from year of birth.

Slightly "tropical" with gently yellowed original hands and dial.

I have a 39mm Mk2 but would have the 1016 in a flash. But nearing £15-20k for a good one in the above spec I think, which is a lot for what it is frown Hopefully they will calm down a bit over the next year or so.
