Looking for a 34mm - 35mm diameter, yellow gold or steel, thin, three hand dress watch with date at 3 o'clock position.
Also thinking about an Explorer II black dial.
Anything interesting to trade? :)
I wouldn't mind a matte dial 1675(0). Also always looking for a Seiko 7a28.

Think Mike Wood at The Old Watch Shop has one of these at in stock at present.Tritium Dial Rolex GMT
Having just been reading the dress watch thread I think I have just added this to the list for next year.

I fancy a CWC diver, probably quartz and maybe scratch my Rolex itch with a non date sub.
Maybe a little consolidation, then go on the hunt for a TV-dialled "Big Blue" Zenith. Or a Heuer Bund, which might take a bit more consolidation!
I am on the lookout for:
Used
High quality
Manual wind
No date
Possibly an explorer 39mm, although I would have to sell most of the existing collection to fund it.
Whoops, 1133!
I forgot I also want a 911 Flighty
"A man of little significance"
Looking for a Vacheron Overseas Deep Stream, although rumour has it VC will be updating the line at SIHH. Also fancy looking st a Zenith Elite 6150.
A "Triple 6" Sea-Dweller and an SM300 to replace the one I sold years ago.
Dornbluth?
At the moment a Seiko MM300
And a black Speed Triple 😊
At the moment a Rolex Date Just & a Breitling B1 or Aerospace are highest up on my list.
Something like this. These dials appear to have been used by a whole range of manufacturers from around 1947 through to the late 1950s and the prices differ widely depending on how big the name is and the metal used in the case - prices seem to start at around £500.00 and can easilly rise to £10k (or over £100k if Rolex). The one below is currently for sale on a vintage website for £3.5k.

Next year??
Panerai, just not sure what as there are so many models
Vintage 38mm chrono in gold 1940-50ish
Heuer Silverstone
Yachtmaster
Although I will have to move a few to even scratch this itch
A snoopy that a speculator isn't trying to sell for almost double retail.
The Z-33 is NUTS! Go for it!
I would really want a Pam 88 but to be honest any Pam in 2016 would be awesome. I don't think I could convince her indoors why "Im buying another watch" but I always had in mind to own a tag, Bret, Pam, and Rolex. I have the first two and Im sure with a bit of pain I will get the last.
Noticed a Pam in SC yesterday @ £3700, just too soon for me unfortunately. I would buy that all day long ;(
There is one of those on SC but I think it is a later model with the white gold surround markers.
I home tudor are going to release a toolish GMT sub (I'm not holding my breath!) maybe an sm300 second hand, maybe a SDC, I know Eds got something with my name on it currently!
Gold day date with recent service - are you listening Craig?
I'll see what Baselworld releases float my boat, should there be nothing of interest I might sell 2 or 3 to buy one higher end piece.
Yes, would love a vintage triple date as well.Something like this.

Probably one or two out rather than any in.
Will have to let some go to fund other needs and it's difficult to argue that having multiple versions of more or less the same watch is essential
I am looking for the same thing as last year, a Tudor 94010 (no date) like the one below except in blue. I would also likely settle for a 94010 Lollipop, as long as it is blue.
DRSD, 5512 or Omega Seamaster 1000m. If I can find one for the right price....
Same as usual for me; GMT-2.
I think finding decent examples in top condition is the problem here and those invariably sell for the higher prices. You wouldn't want to buy a beat up model just because the price was right.
Happy hunting.
... a tricky question. I have nothing expensive on my list, but recently I've started building a collection of vintage Citizen divers. Somewhat tricky to find in good condition. And spares are even worse! I guess I'll keep looking for those ... :-)
I'm after an Alfa Romeo GTV6 3.0 South African Homolgation. Does that count?
I'm not planning to buy any more watches, but I'm weak.
One of these at the right price
and I'm pretty sure my good intentions would evaporate pretty quickly.

Wanted - Damasko DC57
Thanks, that's a bargain for someone :) I'm waiting for the funds from my SubC to come in (sold yesterday) and I'll be on the look out. Preferably 1985 with the white gold surrounds.
Thanks for the heads up Al, I need to save up a bit first. I did take a look though, nice example.
Vostok Amphibia, and SKX, with bezel modding for me, and the new Seiko 6309 reissue .
I'm making a personal rule to stop buying sub £500 watches like I buy bread. Nothing wrong with the watches, but they never stay very long so I need to learn to resist.
Goals next year:
Speedmaster 1957 Broad Arrow Replica, on the bracelet obviously
Sinn EZM 2 because it's my idea of a perfect quartz diver, but not so easy to find now
And I soooo want one of these - tough, pretty, rare, perfect size. Hmmm....
Reasonably realistic goals, but will need to lose some first. Unfortunately this will be tough because I'm currently at peace with the collection. But never say never...
This is the only one on the radar at the moment!
(Picture borrowed from the web)
Still looking for a nice 60s Omega Seamaster DeVille in 9ct yellow gold at a sensible price.
New Year's resolution is to get ALL my vintage Omegas up and running, then start wearing the things!

My first sub, if everything goes to plan.
For me, there are two itching me.
This...
(not my photo)
And this...
(not my photo)
I have loads of things I am keen to have
16710 Transition GMT (old case design, SELs, Non-trit dial). I will get one eventually, may not be 2016
Lemania HS9
EZM2
Eberhard Cheftain Diascope
I will be getting the Anko in 2016 (and am unreasonably excited by that)
Some day I will find a Lemania 1/100th second quartz chrono
I still want a really early Lemania chrono - something 1930s I guess
I also need to finish off a Lemania custom project using a miniature 8-day travel clock movement.
I am just psyching myself up to make some more sales to be able to afford these things.

I have a shopping list that's growing and a budget that's shrinking....but if I could find one of these I'd be happy to start the year. I missed this one and have only found the date version since. A 90's Glashuette chrono:
Tag connected for me
A bit out there but I'll try one
I'm so happy with my latest purchases that I'm becoming a little obsessed by Nomos so my next will hopefully be one housing the new DUW3001 movement. Big bonus for me is that they are all sensibly sized at 36mm. I like the look of the Minimatik but I hope to see the 'automatik' range in the flesh some time next year but a purchase may not happen in 2016 though as I have to start saving again! Nice video of the movement here:

Been thinking about one of these for a while - appeals to the 70s child that I am!The Z-33 is NUTS! Go for it!
Have a Speedy under the tree, keep looking at Cartier tanks, but should probably save towards the 116610LV, but next week it will be a different list altogether:)
Another vintage chrono
Citizen Cosmotron
and I fancy an old LED quartz.
I am regressing to my childhood
I'm also after a Pam,probably a 422,I recently sold an 88 and not sure it was the right thing to do
A vintage Tissot Navigator like this, posted by WVE60 in the current Vintage Watches thread. There seem to be a lot of different styles of Navigator but this combination of movement, case and handset looks perfect to me. I've only seen one other similar one for sale in the last 6 months.
The Tissot Navigator with Lemania 5012 is also hardly ever seen.
