You have great taste!
I think I counted 3 Daniel Roth's, and what seems to be your penchant for more of the classical aesthetic, I was surprised at not seeing any Breguets???
Also, seeing the IWC Perp makes me want to cry as I passed on an absolute steal a couple of years back! Kudos to an amazing collection
Today's blurry photo
of a few gold watches that were brand new at one point or another during the last 45 years. ...
What a lovely collection...
built over 45 years! I hope the older ones give you as much joy as the newer ones, the ultimate pursuit of the Purists!
Whoa, nice collection to be sure.
What is the art deco tank watch in the middle of the top row? I have seen one somewhere before, maybe on the forum but can't remember what it is.
That is beautiful. That's the one I would pick,
definitely something you don't see every day, unlike some of the others.
Well these are the goldies, so no bracelets. That'd be too much bling for me. I have... *checks* another 20 watches in steel, etc. Three of them have metal bracelets.
There was a fourth - a Rolex GMT-Master II - sold last year. A GP may follow some time soon, but no hurry there. The only qualm I have is the profusion of hides on show in the photo above. It's a guilty pleasure and I ought to try harder to switch to non-...
You're too kind. It's quite easy to be honest. It's not something I want to think about too much. There's maybe 30 seconds of deliberation to size up what feels right, and that's it.
If that means some watches remain unworn for longish periods, that's okay. WIS metrics like 'wrist time' aren't relevant. There are broader considerations of history, culture, philosophy, art, design, material science, mechanical innovation, branding, mar...
Great collection!
Look at that Zenith with the Art Deco numerals! Tres chic! And the Art Deco cased Patek Philippe 5124G is very cool as well! Seems like we both have a thing for Art Deco style!
A wonderful collection!
Stylish, classy, distinctive, original. This is what comes to my mind. I see the watches and it is evident there’s tons of research behind every single one of these pieces. There is a common theme, which is quite evident, but impossible to describe other ...
That's very nice of you to say. Thank You.
I could address your observations at length but fear that might become a little self-indulgent. So let me just thank you again for taking the time to share your thoughts.
This is an amazing collection!
And I'm sure there's a good story behind each one. You are a lucky man!
Wonderful collecting philosophy — a man after my own heart
I wonder if I have that many gold watches — I have no idea! How odd that I’ve never paid attention to the metal counts... Thanks for the viewing. Cazalea
