Many watch enthusiasts I come across are usually into cars i've noticed. Just curious if anyone here is also into watches as well.

Tutima Grand Flieger w/ ETA 2836-2 modified by Tutima, Monta Skyquest GMT w/ Pepsi bezel & Gilt dial. V1 w/ the ETA movement instead of the Sellita movement which is is more desirable and harder to find. The case design is slightly different than the V2 that just came out. 1968 Bulova 10kt. gold & 1952 Bulova that is self-winding which wasn't really found on pretty much every watch of that era.

Ball Trainmaster Cannonball Chronograph w/ Ball modified ETA 2824-2 movement w/ Dubois-Depraz module, Hamilton Pan-Europ on a NATO strap, Rolex DJ stainless steel, Seiko SNK809 w/ green suede strap.
W-4.jpeg

Bulova Lunar Pilot 262 kHz, Tudor Black Bay Bronze w/ a brass case & in-house 70 hour power reserve movement, Seiko SRPD73 w/ a 4R movement, come Citizen i've had for quite a while that I bought when I was in the Philippines in the early 2000s.

Hamilton Jazzmaster Auto Chrono, Orient Bambino IV, Tissot Gentleman Powermatic 80, LE Alpina Startimer w/ a pop-up cover on top of the caseback, Nomos Ludwig w/ the Epsilon movement.
W:A-13.jpeg

Tag Heuer Autavia Limited Edition release w/ Tag Heuer's relatively new Heuer 02 movement with a vertical clutch that provides that "pop" it gives the pushers. They made way too many of the re-release of the Autavia, so the 60th anniversary Carrera they released only 600 pieces. So, they made way too few of the watch. I really want the 60th anniversary Carrera since it follows the Autavia with only Heuer markings on it, no Tag Heuer marked anywhere on it except for the small logo on the movement behind the exhibition case.

I'm on the hunt for a Rolex Explorer MK2 39mm. I wouldn't mind an Oyster Perpetual either, but they are very hard to find pre-owned for a decent price, which makes more sense just buying an Explorer. I also liked the old old school Air Kings with solid bezels, or engine-turned bezels. They only come in 34mm though, but they can be found for $3500-$4500.

My beater Omega Seamaster Chronograph. ETA 1164 movement (mid/late 90s). I say beater because it's scratches and marks which might not be seen in the picture.
W:OS-20.jpeg

Vintage 1960 Omega Seamaster, fully automatic, that has been completely refurbished and I installed a new, era-correct Omega bracelet for it.
W:P-5.jpeg

Pretty rare Panerai 0184 GMT w/ a JLC 897 movement. Unique internal rotating GMT bezel controlled by the top crown. When Panerai was in their groove of making 45mm, 47mm, 49mm watches, this watch was an anomaly for them at 42mm.
W:R-18.jpeg

Vintage 87' Rolex DJ w/ 18kt. gold on the bracelet, fluted bezel, and crown.

Tudor Black Bay 58 in Navy Blue

I'm wearing the Chronomat with a B01 movement. I gave my son my Shadow Flyback for his 21st birthday. My next one is a Oyster steel Daytona. I like dials. Yes it's on my right hand, I'm left handed.

I like the Omega Seamaster, probably because it was James Bond’s timepiece of choice.

^^^Nice! I saw Breitlings new release's when I went to their boutique a few weeks ago. I sold both my SuperOcean and Avenger II last summer. I wanna pick up a new Premier.
Dude, you have a great collection. I don’t have the energy, interest, or budget to do what you’ve done. when I’m older, I may my Omega on to my grandson.

Thank you sir. I usually try to pick up 4-7 Seamaster 300s or Seamaster Aqua Terras a year. Reason being is they are good as cash when it comes to trading in the watch world. When you try to work out a trade, someone will always take a Seamaster, even an ETA 1164 version, but Co-Axial ones move fast. I'm looking for another first gen. 2500 Co-Axial Aqua Terra since they're 39mm which is an ideal size for that watch IMO.

I'm 35, and I have no idea why I always hear people say they just look at their phone. It takes around .5 -.90 seconds to look at the time on a watch on your wrist uncovered. When you have a job where minutes matter, pulling your phone out 20 times a day, and thats a low estimate during work take up quite a bit of time.

I find myself wearing my Tudor BB Bronze a lot as of late. I actually have an Eterna 1948 Legacy GMT coming in the mail today. Not something I would normally buy, but I do always like to take in interesting trades, especially if i'm trading down.
