Nothing.
I honestly think I've reached an ideal mix with my collection as it stands.

Nothing for me either though really. I'm realistic and have no money.
On my Wish I could Buy list however....
Newest want on my list is a Tudor Pelegos in black
A Rolex Y/G DD - 118238 with the heavier bracelet/clasp and luminous stick batons.
I am hoping for a Rolex flavoured 2017 - with a 16710 GMT and the new 2016 explorer on my definites. May also round out with a 36mm OP too if I shift a piece or two to better round out the collection...
A Doxa Sub 1500t Professional as an upgrade to my orange-dial Orient Mako XL...

So my wanted was the Snoopy but like plenty of others that dream faded in the frenzy to snap them up ... actually two others came out that also appealed ...
and here with a 39mm and 34mm
... so currently not wanting!
I'm out of ideas. I should have some kind of chronograph, but I don't like the Speedy enough (heresy I know!).
Planning to look at a Bremont ALT1-C in the flesh and see if I am inspired.
If a new Coke or Pepsi GMT rocks up this year then that would be the thing

I've a nice little collection (I think!) of mid range watches that cover most bases, so I'm looking toward getting a few more expensive pieces over the next few years. In no particular order:
-Rolex Submariner No Date
-Omega Speedmaster Pro
-Jaeger Le Coultre Reverso Grande Taille
I'm sure if I ever get done with that list, the hierarchy of needs will kick in again and extend it. I know I've a sympathetic eye for the Explorer, Explorer II, and the GMT BLNR:) And the Omega Planet Ocean... I wish I could find cheaper hobbies...
Aqua Terra with blue teak dial (still)
The newish IWC Portofino 40mm, white dial, deployment clasp
Ceramic daytona lolz.
That Kermit that is on SC right now
That Spectre that is on SC right now
Sadly I can't get any of them due to financial restrictions and I won't be making a trade offer.
Blue ceramic seamaster. I saw a black bay red at an ad recently and loved it, but I need a date window.

Going Tudor crazy at the minute. Have current WTBs for a Pelagos and another Blackbay(blue or black).
I am also after an Breitling aerospace again!
Hopefully get them boxed off soon.
Speedbird 3.
Vostok Amphibia with coin edge Seiko bezel.

Rolex Sub ND
Speedmaster
Currently tempted by Tudor Fast rider Black Shield
Rolex 5513
Longines Greenlander WWW
Omega WWW
Longines Big Indian
Another 'vintage' ish Rolex would do very nicely. Can but hope :-)
Getting s bit of a Panerai itch again.....
When you look long into an abyss, the abyss looks long into you.........
Out of all my watches, that's my favourite
A very simple CWC G10 issued.

Just book in with the Dr and get some cream for that ;)
It's just a matter of time...
Saw a Rolex oyster 114200 in the AD today, has a grape dial. My Mrs loved it. Was soooo tempted because it was there for the picking. Tomorrow I might be back..... it is Christmas after all :) So that's on my wtb list now, just not for me to wear.
Also decided I want a SD4000 116660 blue dial today for some reason. :?
Realistically:
Nomos Orion 35 (small wrists!)
IWC Ingenieur 3239 (black dial)
Looking at the pics of the blue dial Aqua Terra, I may need to consider putting another on my wishlist.
When funds permit, if ever:
Patek 5712
A Tudor BB 36
Montblanc Heritage Chronométrie Ultra Slim
Omega Speedmaster 3510.21/3510.82

Omega 2254.50 sword hands
UG tri compax moonphase - that's one hell of a wish!
An old Rolex 1803 on President bracelet, getting older and might shift some steel models for one of these....always wanted one when I was young, but always felt they where a bit in your face but they are growing on me
Something from Seiko, there's bunch of models but currently on top of the list are SARX line and/or Ananta SRQ005.
And some cheaper models, Alpinist and this lovely chrono.
Poslano sa mog SM-A510F koristeći Tapatalk
For me it's currently....
- Speedmaster Pro
- Blancpain Villeret - 6654-1127-55B
- Rolex DSSD
This:
And possibly one of these:
If this one turns into reality, it might be worth a look:
Oysterquartz and I keep lusting after the 2 tone everose chocolate dial yacht-master.
At the moment, its a 15200 (http://forum.tz-uk.com/showthread.ph...-The-one/page2)
and/or possibly a North Flag
I want to get a Franck Muller of some description, one from when Franck was still designing them. Possibly a Crazy Hours.
Breitling Avenger Gmt or if I'm feeling brave an Avenger Seawolf yellow dial. Both on rubber. Hopefully a jan or Feb purchase.
Rolex 5513 & Rolex Explorer II Polar are the only watches that I desire at the moment.
Early DJ on oyster:
Speedy pro full-set (I missed out on one last week!)
A faded bezel insert for my 16800 Palletoni as I naively bought one with a couple of service parts ages ago, and something for my girlfriend so that I don't feel bad about asking for my Oysterquartz back!
I'd love a vintage pepsi too, but the prices are getting way out of my range!
I usually don't tell what's on my WTB list because I only buy vintage and I believe that when everyone shares wish lists it causes price increases.
I quite fancy a Laco Paderborn. It really has the WW2 aesthetic. From the leather strap with rivets, to the dial without maker name or model on it. The dial itself is quite plain, with just enough info to do the job. While in the back of the case is info about the watch stamped on.
It's very basic, raw even. Seems to go against the whole grain of watched today, who are either luxury pieces or trying to impersonate luxury. As wel, as this its only £700.
Pete.
Just one now. I have 4 'grails' and recently acquired the third of them, will receive it in mid January. Pictures will follow I'm sure.
That just leaves the Rolex 116619 white gold Submariner to complete my journey and then I will leave it there.
2 I would love to get this year is the MM300 and a SMP blue. As always though something else catches the eye and before you kniw it the pot is empty again.
too much stuff i'd like at the moment but just nudging ahead is a manual wind chrono.. a speedmaster or Heuer bund would keep me happy for a little while :-)
Current WTB is an Omega Speedmaster Gemini IV but these seem to be even rarer than the Alaska I recently secured!
Steve
Realistically swap my PO for a Moon Watch.
Ideally if I win the lottery an original Monaco.
A Longines Heritage Diver Chrono and a first IWC (Ingenieur possibly).
I could be tempted by a nicely priced vintage Heuer Carrera or Montreal...
I've got my 50th coming up this year so I've decided to treat myself to a grail watch. The watch in question is a Breitling E13360 Chrono Avenger. I've fantasied about having one of these since I first saw one. I never got around to buying one (finance and circumstances) whilst they were in production so it will have to be a pre-owned one. I've done a little research into the market and a decent one will retail around £2000 to £2500. My research mainly centres around Chrono24 - pros and cons have already been cover in another thread. I'm not too fussed about whether it has a bracelet or strap. This is obviously reflected in the prices. There was one I quite like the look of from Holland. However, they've listed the watch as 2008 and according to my research Breitling stopped making the E13360 in 2007. Having a closer look at the pictures, the guarantee is dated 2008, so the watch could have been made in the last year but not sold until a few months later. Unfortunately, it is stuff like this which makes me nervous when buying. I could buy a brand new Sinn 103 St Sa instead.
looking to invest in my first rolex. torn between early DJ or an explorer 1. being a scientist I would love a milgauss but cannot justify that amount currently
[QUOTE=Wallasey Runner;4190410]This:
In that image, it looks better than a Daytona....more space round the dials.
I find I'm only wearing 3 these days, one for work, one for weekends and a semi beater for leaving in the locker when I go to the gym. Anythign else just sits there unworn as it just doesnlt seem to fit in the rotation now I'm a creature of habit
I currently wear an Omega Planet Ocean 8500 for work which does the job pretty well so I'm going to hunt out the latest version of that. Anything else that arrives this year is likely to be passing through as a result of an impulse buy rather than staying for any period of time.
Try the new pelagos lefty , I'm in love with it at the moment . It's basically a left handed vintage looking pelagos . So cool
