I could put together a 'dream' list of practical watches.. ie. well beyond my reach and say
1. Sport Watch - RM027
2. Daily Wear - Lange 1 Tourbillon Perpetual
3. Dress Watch - Patek 5078
My realistic practical list however, would be my current rota:
1. Sport Watch - '87 Pepsi GMT
2. Daily Wear - Langematik Perpetual
3. Dress Watch - Richard Lange
I could swap out the perpetual for a Datograph, but the stealthiness of
the pt perpetual makes it such an easy piece to reach for each morning.
Cheers, and great responses so far!

My preference would be :-)

1. The Patek Philippe 5270R. THE Patek watch in my opinion. There are many more complicated pieces but the vintage colour on the dial,the movement, the case and the lugs gives this watch the X factor. 2. Roger Smith series 2 in rose gold in 38mm - now onl...

Nice topic! I would choose a Nautilus (any Nautilus), a Datograph Up/Down and a Rolex GMT or Yachtmaster (the Everose Oysterflex for me). Cheers!

I think the task is impossible, for me anyway.

If, somehow, I reduced what I have to 3 watches, I would quickly add a fourth, and a fifth... Forced, I would say 2 Langes and a steel watch on bracelet-say the 1815 RPC; Datograph and a Yachtmaster or Explorer II. Great question, Ovi.
What do you mean by practical? Tool?

In this case: One Chrono, one GMT, one Alarm. The Alarm? I can hit two birds with the same stone, with the U.N Sonata, which is an alarm and a GMT. The Chrono? I think the Duometre, closely followed by the Montblanc 1858 Tachymeter. If I pick the Sonata, ...

... Our shared passion. That said, I'm going with my JLC AMVOX II, a Ulysse Nardin Maxi Marine Diver, and a Rolex GMT. The real question is, if you could only have ONE watch, which watch would it be? - Scott
One?!

You might as well shoot me now.
Choice of three

Difficult decision- but Seiko 5 - really robust & will last forever Can't beat a Reverso & Duo is the definitive version for me Wouldn't want to be without an alarm Ask me next week & it might be different! Cheers JML ...

- Patek 5960A because it is practical (and great) - Patek 5100P as a dress watch because of the design and movement - Rolex Submariner (50 years green bezel) because Sub is great and I dive I thought about all fancy alternatives including perpetuals, spli...
Only 3 for me?

Patek 5980/1A, Rolex Daytona 116520 white dial, & Richard Mille 010 Ti.
