Now THIS is an interesting collection. Thanks for a refreshing post.

Nicely played!

How do you like the breitling, I’ve been really wanting the datora for my next watch

[–] mdcohen@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I was at a Breitling store yesterday. The Datora is gorgeous but chunky. I didn’t care for on my 6 3/4” wrist.

[–] External_Touch_3854@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

That is the only G-Shock I’ve ever seen that I actually wanted. That thing is dope! Not to diminish the rest of your collection, but that G-Shock is so unique!

[–] sheldonmeetshomer@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I really like the variety, it looks like you’ve given this collection a lot of thought.

[–] leberkaesweckle42@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Super tasteful and diverse collection. Love the pistachio Breitling and the red AT. But the rest is also pure class!

[–] SanderDieman@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Wanna bet you’re nowhere near done? Nice start though, colourful

[–] heresiarch619@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Excellent taste, no notes

[–] georgetemperley@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I would say the Rolex, the Omega and the Grand Seiko are my favourites. I really liked the Nomos as well.

[–] GloatGoat@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I would MAYBE just swap the Nomos or omega for a reverso or cartier santos, get something thats not round. I never liked squares till i forced myself to a reverso, now its my number one.

[–] MisterGrimes@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Perhaps the most well-rounded collection I've seen here in a while.

It's got color, it's got formal, and it's got sporty.

And the choice of bracelets on the Nomos, GS, and Breitling are chefs kiss

[–] PackageNo7044@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Very well rounded and beautiful collection.

[–] JayJFlo@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Really nice collection! How does the AT wear? Love it…but shying away because slightly small for my 6.75 wrist.

[–] 2012Tribe@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Love that AT dial! Nice collection

[–] wood-thrush@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I really like the strap choice for the Nomos.

[–] drthomk@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Love that Nomos, been enamored by them since I found TZ in 1998

I'm excited to share my watch collection with you all! I've been collecting watches for a couple of years now, but I've decided to take a break from collecting to enjoy the watches I already have.

One of the things I've learned is that it's okay to have quartz watches in your collection. I used to think that all watch collectors had to have automatic watches, but I've realized that quartz watches can be enjoyable especially when I am in a pinch and I don't have to set the time.

I'm really happy with my watch collection, and I'm looking forward to enjoying it for many years to come. Thank you again to the watch collecting community from where I have learnt a lot about watches.

I can appreciate the range of dials, brands, and colors in this collection! It seems very unique and thoughtful so kudos to you.

[–] 2012Tribe@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Which one(s) gets the most wrist time?

[–] Endie_C@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No you are not! AP>Casio Oak then your done ✅

[–] scryptbreaker@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Nah man that G-Shock isn’t trying to be a RO, way different vibes. Especially with the digital screen. I think it brings a much different aesthetic in to round out OP’s kit.

[–] R0hanisaurusRex@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

What’s the GSHOCK? Looks great!

[–] bushware@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Looks like a perfect set to me.

[–] CaptainPhukflaps@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

That's a lovely collection, you have great taste

[–] theanonwonder@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Love it, nice colours and great combinations.

[–] gdanko@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Breitling is dope.

[–] Then-Committee580@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Great collection

[–] HK_Ootoot@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

SOLID collection! Nicely done OP. That G-shock even works even though it’s not really my cup of tea

[–] innie10032@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Beautiful.

You must be proud

[–] OOF-MY-PEE-PEE@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

this just made me realize how much i want a watch with a dark red dial.

[–] leberkaesweckle42@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

The King Seiko reissue with the red dial looks so nice

[–] Alfazefirus@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Great selection, kudos. What's the GS ref number? It looks like an Omiwatari to me but with a date wheel and the excellence star.

[–] excts@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Fire collection.

[–] Oshabeestie@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Nice collection - but you aren’t finished! We all know that.

[–] blaiddunigol@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Perfect collection imo. 👍

[–] VGEez@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Really really nice.

[–] jay231jay@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

You sir are done. Love the red aqua terra, never seen that before. This is an ideal collection

[–] mesazoic@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I don’t usually comment on these but this collection is incredible. Great taste!

I think all the bases are covered. Well done! You can take a break now.

[–] Pongdiddy4099@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Great collection. Maybe snag yourself a Sinn 556 next or an Oris Big Crown Pointer Date?

[–] z_Daito@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

Immaculate collection, i can resonate with every single pick

[–] flowremix@alien.top 1 points 1 year ago

I want to be critical. B-b-b-but i can't. It's beautiful. Like circle jerk can't touch it, IMO.

"It doesn't have a speedmaster." But there's an AT!
