I've liked Panerai watches for some time. One can never say never, but it's highly doubtful I'll ever have one. Never pulled the trigger on a Citizen Gran Touring Signature. So this past week, I stumbled upon this - Reactor Fermi. It is a battery watch, which I've not had for eons, but for just over U.S. $150, I figured I'd take a shot. Just got it, but even nicer than I expected. (the pic is crap and does no justice)

Never say never

Decided to go vintage, and just received a 1959 Navitimer, AOPA only,with all black subdials. The watch is in great condition, and I couldn't be happier.

I am a fan of a couple of Rolex models but the Stella dial gets me most. 
Here is one with the tangerine dial 1978. 
 


 

Might want to check out the new Oyster Perpetual Pres

Panerai checks all the boxes for me.

Wow  I have had/worn them all except the Patek. The steel Aquanaut is my bucket list watch especially the time traveler but the wait is obscene. I remember  the days when u could buy a nautilus out of the caseat msrp. Im on the waitlist for any steel or wg aquanaut or naulitis. Fingers crossed

Yes Rolex is paying homage to long term collectors with this color. The average buyer will never know it

My first nice watch was a Cartier roadster chrono. Not much of a watch with its ETA movement and all. But keeping it anyway though I haven’t worn it since 2012. 
 

Second is a 116520 black stainless Daytona. The one watch id pick over all watches if I had to wear one the rest of my life. 
 

Last one is my Audemars Piguet which is fun but not as good of a movement as the one found in the Daytona. Spent months being fixed at the manufacture multiple times. Also a scratch magnet. 
 

(Sub and gold Daytona are my dad’s not mine)

Now were talking. Steel RO chrono is def in my top 5 watches ever. Great example

Picked this up at retail a couple weeks ago Rolex Hulk 40mm green dial/bezel. The. a week later it was discontinued. Prices have shot into the stratosphere. Mspr is 9400.  Ive seen it in Chrono 24 for as much as 34k. Fighting an urge ti cash out but I really like the watch with casual dress. Leaning toward not selling

[Winchester21]

My current collection. Supposed to have a WG Daytona Oysterflex in the works. Waiting to hear status. On waiting list for a steel or wg Patek. Lol. My guy is supposed to be getting me a James Cameron Deepsea Just sold my 2 tone black Daytona , Black Rolex Deepsea , and my 40 mm Air King. Also hoping to score a new 41 mm no date sub and a GMT Master II on a Jubilee bracelet. Im in love with the 42 mm WG Yachtmaster but thats another waitlist item in my area

I'd hold on to that. Then again if the Hulk prices break $40k...

Years ago I decided on a classic, and I don't regret it.

One of my biggest mistakes in watch collecting was trading my batman GMT like yours a few years back. If i see one at anything near a decent price I will buy another one. On the list at my AD for a new one. I think changing the bracelet was a mistake but I like both styles
