2) Rolex "hulk"

3) JLC ulta thin moon

Suspect the first two will wear too big for me but need to try!!!

bbbbb · 12-05-2017 10:27pm

Too many !
3 that come to mind

1 grand Seiko GMT

2 breguet type xx

3 azimuth mr roboto!

G rock · 13-05-2017 6:11pm

I have a real hankering for a Sinn 103, or a 756.

Hopefully not too unobtainable sometime in the future!

Lorddrakul · 13-05-2017 7:55pm

I would very much like a Breitling B1

But also

An Omega Moonwatch:

Wibbs · 13-05-2017 10:20pm

TBH within my very meagre budget I've kinda covered the bases at the moment, though if more moola were in play, I'd love...

Omega Marine Chronometer

A Zenith Cairelli

Zenith_A_Cairelli_Chronograph_AS01617_2_grande.jpg?v=1471967837

Though I have a Heuer Bund so would be in two minds TBH.

Longines Nonius Flyback

Longines Czech pilot

And I had one, an early one too. Dumbest sale I ever made.

Longines Chronometre

Mad rare and IMH blows similar Pateks out of the water.

Eoin · 13-05-2017 10:40pm

Mine keeps changing, but I think it's a Rolex Explorer II in black, a Tissot Squelette and a Tudor North Flag.

Passenger · 13-05-2017 10:47pm

Rolex Daytona Cosmograph with Black ceramic bezel

1. Rolex Sea Dweller
2. Glashutte Original Sixties
3. AP Royal Oak
4. JLC Navy Seal
5. Any McGonigle watch!

That is it. Not getting all Patek yet, maybe as I get older.

Bluefoam · 14-05-2017 1:36pm

IWC Big Pilot
IWC Portugieser Chronograph
Panerai Radiomir
Zenith El Primero
Moser & Cie

I currently rock a Tag Heuer Monaco, IWC Aquatimer Chrono, G-Shock & a couple of Tissots... I don't want to be a collector, just someone with some nice watches that I enjoy... I have no interest in flipping watches.

Looks like I need something with a bracelet strap in there too... will have to think about that one.

Bateman · 14-05-2017 2:03pm

Next up a G Shock of some description, and a black Speedmaster

Ionised · 14-05-2017 2:44pm

Always had a yearning for a Seiko Cocktail Time and have just been reading a Worn and Wound article on the new versions released under the Presage line.
Noice!

Oafley Jones · 14-05-2017 3:44pm

With the exception of the Bauhaus style watches, my tastes are all over the map. I've gone from Fliegers to Divers, to vintage Rolex.. even G shocks with the most garish of designs. Fortunately my (lack of) funding means I've plenty of time to dial into something more concrete.

I constantly come back to the Zenith Big Date Pilot.

Always dismissed Rolex. Memories of 80s Arseholes and old Fellas with Bi-metals poisoned my image of the brand. But I have to say their vintage stuff is lovely. There's a balance that has been lost with the newer larger designs, particularly the maxi case subs. I can even get past the cyclops now. I'd love a grey dialed date just.

Also, the Oytersquartz keep grabbing my attention...

Although If you put a gun to my head now it'd probably be a polar explorer 2.

Picking up a 5610 G Shock has me looking at some stuff I'd always dismissed as gaudy and cartoonish. Keep staring at these..

I've had a hankering for a few different watches, that then faded, but a constant one had been for the max bill chronoscope (and despite my also declaring elsewhere I wouldn't buy more mechanical watches!)

Junghans new-ish Meister Pilot is probably my most up to date fancy...

A Meistersinger would be the third on my list then. I'm not completely settled on exactly which model though, but it will inevitably be something like this

bogmanfan · 17-05-2017 11:40am

If I stick to the achievable, and skip MB&F, Urwerk and others that I'll never be able to afford, then these 3 are in my sights at the moment. All pretty high RRP, but the more interesting stuff always sinks like a stone, so all are possible at under €5k used.

1. Corum ti-bridge

I was looking forward to your choices!

Bateman · 17-05-2017 1:39pm

I have finally seen a Richard Mille that I like…although pictures is as close as I’ll ever get to it

Darwin · 17-05-2017 9:16pm

While definitely not everyone's cup of tea, I would love one of the special edition BRM chronos, something like the Gulf T12:

Would settle for this Oris either:

Creamy Goodness · 19-05-2017 2:17pm

my last post was quite hasty. here's another few I'd like to add to the list:

blue5000 · 19-05-2017 6:58pm

Mine changes from time to time, but if the right Longines ultra chron came along I might be persuaded, no, forced to turn a cow into big macs.

A bit of snow would be just about perfect, one can only dream.

Seiko SBGA011 "Snowflake"

The updated dial doesn't work at all for me. So much better with the old branding.

Have to agree I prefer the old design lay out.

3 a Patek Phillips perpetual calendar with split seconds chronograph !

Eoin · 07-06-2017 12:28am

I tried on a DateJust II & Milgausse yesterday and a bit to my surprise, I think I'd have either one ahead of many sportier watches I thought I wanted.

What's your wish list.....
