[SOTC] 15 years of collecting

But most have been recent buys. I feel like I'm a bit all over the place with what I like, but I guess that's the point of collections.

  • Citizen Eco-Drive Chronograph: This was the start of my watch journey in HS, I'm honestly surprised it still works, I've never changed the battery and it is still ticking after it's exposed to sunlight.
  • Hamilton Jazzmaster: I got this one in gradschool when large dials were the rage. It's 46mm and I honestly rarely wear it, but I did wear it on my wedding day, so it holds some nostalgia.
  • Orient Day Date: I got this shortly after I was married, I really liked the day-date feature. Also rarely wear it anymore, but it still does make for a good dress piece when I am wearing black.
  • Orient Mako III: This was when I got back into watches a few years ago. But was still hesitant to spend much money on them.
  • Breitling Navitimer: For some reason this is the watch I always wanted to own and I finally just splurged and got it about 2 years ago. I still love this watch.
  • Steinhart GMT (Pepsi): I was still hesitant to spend a lot of money on watches, but really liked the look of this. I thought the hands and blue dial made it look like a little less of a homage, but realized their is a white gold Pepsi with a blue dial about 3 months after I bought this. I still do really like this watch. Steinhart makes a good quality watch for the money.
  • Longines Hydroconquest GMT: I just really liked the color patterns in this and this was when I decided to breakdown and buy my second nice watch. I still wear this regularly. My daughter's soccer team colors are forest green, so it goes perfectly with my tshirts on gamedays.
  • Nomos Metro 38: I've always really liked the Nomos design. I also like Junghan's. I was able to get this watch at what I thought was a good price.
  • Glashutte Original Panomatric Lunar: When I started looking at watches more regularly after getting the Breitling I fell in love with this watch. I honestly like it better than the ALS. I think it's just so clean. This is probably my favorite watch that I own now.
  • Grand Seiko SBGM221: I'm still not the biggest GS fan, but I really love the simplicity of this watch.
  • Tudor Pelagos: I was between this and the Omega PO 42 and found a great deal on this watch, so I had to jump on it. This is my usual weekend watch.
  • Sugess Chrono (Breitling Homage): I just think this is fun and I wanted to see what the quality of these AliExpress watches are. I seldom wear this, but I do like it.
  • Watchdives (007 Homage): Same as above, I actually use this as my gym watch a lot. Works well for that and I don't care if it gets beat up.
  • Farer Worldtimer: I wanted a Worldtimer and got this to commemmorate our anniversary trip to Italy.
  • Rolex GMT Master II GRNR/Bumblebee: This is the one I've been waiting on for over 18 months. I just got it last week and really think this rounds out my collection for a while.

I'm still looking for an older Omega PO, specifically this reference #: 232.30.42.21.01.003, but not in a huge hurry.
