Very nice eclectic collection! well done! Love that CO 23 classic PVD model....if you ever want to move it on...give me a shout! hehe!

I sense a Military/diver bias (like my collection) with a few dress watches in the herd!

Very solid collection Max...

I see a few duplicates, thought about keeping the one you REALLY like and selling the others to gets something new and different?

That vintage Nardin is very cool!

Thanks for sharing!

Yowza Max ! For Your Viewing Pleasure On A Rainy Day 46145 This is an OUTSTANDING collection to put together in
just four years or so !!! ..First of all the two Accutrons are honestly like
two legends with those incredible cases, and bezel shapes. Even the
bracelets are excellent on those. oh, and don't forget the super sporty
dials with those dot markers, hands, and sub-dials !

Your Aviator is something special as well. A stunning dial with those numbers
combined with markers. Also think those hands are EXTRA NICE, as is that
bracelet, and how it's connected to the case !!! For Your Viewing Pleasure On A Rainy Day Icon_biggrin

Have to say that BOTH of your Berhardts, the Binnacle, and the Corsair are
two gems..Wow !!! For Your Viewing Pleasure On A Rainy Day 803574 For Your Viewing Pleasure On A Rainy Day 803574 Just the quality, and design there for the money,
is out of this world imho. Tremendously nice bezels, dials, especially on the
yellow one, along with the perfect bracelets on those ! ..Another A+ there
Max !

Another modern day legend is your Seiko Monster ! For Your Viewing Pleasure On A Rainy Day Icon_smile ..Can't beat that dial,
or bezel for that matter imo. It's sporty, and it's tough..and you really can't
beat the combination of looks and reliability with that one if you ask me !!!!

Then comes your Breitling Superocean which reaches new levels of quality,
and design. It's classy, but it also has an attitude, like it can handle just
about anything you throw at it. It must be pretty TERRIFIC to have a
watch that looks THIS good, but still manages to be one mean watch ! For Your Viewing Pleasure On A Rainy Day 933578

With your two Citizens, you REALLY have to hand it to Citizen on those
cases ! For Your Viewing Pleasure On A Rainy Day 46145 ..The shape on those is simply AMAZING ! Kind of reminds
me slightly of a Ploprof or something. The dials with their marker style,
as well as the way the hands look is insanely cool. So are the bezels,
and really the entire designs of both watches sir !

Yet another A+ for each of your Deep Blue's ! The orange is PERFECT
for this watch, but the black honestly couldn't be better either ! For Your Viewing Pleasure On A Rainy Day Icon_biggrin
Extremely unique bezels, along with markers on the two of these help
separate them from the rest of the crowd ! ..Plus the quality looks
exceptional by the way.

All of your Dievas are off the charts Max ! For Your Viewing Pleasure On A Rainy Day Icon_cheers ..The Divergraph is one
I haven't seen too much. However, that bezel is SO smooth, and so unique !
The dial is phenomenal with the sub-dials, and it even looks like there are
some tritium tubes in there. The Mesopalgic has that military style that
reminds me of the Marathon, and that's COOL ! Looks like an invincible
case, and bracelet, and again you have what looks like tritium ! Your
Oceantimer is REAL NICE as well ! ..Unbelievably eye-catching bezel,
along with case, and the dial has sport diver written all over it with
the markers, and hand style there. Almost has a UTS theme come to
think of it ! For Your Viewing Pleasure On A Rainy Day 803574

Your Accutron Eagle Pilot seems to have beautiful dial, and I like the way
the numbers look to be spread out, and done. Seems as if the case flows
right into the bracelet because of the width on the bracelet as well. For Your Viewing Pleasure On A Rainy Day 46145
That case-back looks PHENOMENAL by the way sir.

Moving to your Junkers..this is one of those companies that I've been
curious about for some time. They look astonishingly well built, and the
designs ALWAYS look classic, but EXTREMELY smooth ! Just the case
shapes alone are fun to look at, but how about the textures on this
dial here ? AWESOME Max ! For Your Viewing Pleasure On A Rainy Day Icon_biggrin ..No nonsense hands, and numbers
have to make this one of your favorites sir !

I'm really liking the two Luminox you are showing by the way. The Field
Commander is a bit more reserved, but still has a neat theme with the
classic/clean case, and bracelet. Meeting that supercharged dial with
it's flawless styled hands, and markers. On the other side of the coin
is the Navy Seal with it's incredible military theme, aggressive styling,
along with you guessed it..more tritium ! For Your Viewing Pleasure On A Rainy Day Icon_cheers

Can't say enough good things about your Oris Diver either ! For Your Viewing Pleasure On A Rainy Day Icon_cyclops ..Those
cases with that trademark bulge are off the charts imho. So are the
those FANTASTIC dial, with the hand as well as marker look. The bezels,
the cases, the bracelets, and the movements are all some of my favorites,
and I don't even have an Oris !

Moving to that Orsa Military ! For Your Viewing Pleasure On A Rainy Day Icon_cool ..This is one of those watches that has
the perfect blend of comfort, and size. It's got the GREAT classic case,
along with a comfortable bracelet. Not to mention the simple dial with
some neat markers, along with hands. Terrific Max !

The Philip there also has ALOT to like ! ..REALLY like how they did that
bezel, as well as the texturing on the dial. Stunning hand style, as well
as SUPER nice bracelet on this one !!! ..The overall size, as well as the
look of this one gets another A+ ! For Your Viewing Pleasure On A Rainy Day Icon_smile

Speaking of more A+'s..how about that Raymond Weil sir ?! For Your Viewing Pleasure On A Rainy Day 46145 ..This
case, the bumps on the case/bezel, along with the Roman numerals are
enough to make anyone smile. The sub-dials are exceptional as well.
Even the pushers are nice to look at. Oh, and the hands are uniquely
cool by the way also !!!

Now the Steinhart Ocean 1 is TOO GOOD ! For Your Viewing Pleasure On A Rainy Day Icon_biggrin ..Between that dive style,
and the RED ! You can't go wrong imho !!! It's just the BEST blend of
sportiness with class. The color combination also sets it apart from other
watches, and honestly just ROCKS no matter how you look at it. For Your Viewing Pleasure On A Rainy Day 933578

With the Ulysse Nardin you have there, this has to be vintage perfection
from what I'm seeing. Must be fun to have a classic like this in your collection
as well Max ! For Your Viewing Pleasure On A Rainy Day 46145 Looks like a tremendous watch sir, and it even says that
it's a Chronometer ! Woohoo !!! ..That one IS special !

Then comes the Zodiac Desert Master ! ..For some reason I REALLY like this
one ! For Your Viewing Pleasure On A Rainy Day Icon_cheers ..Seems like it blends alot of what we have seen in older watches,
with a nice modern twist. Excellent dial, which seems to have some neat texture
or lines on it. Also think those hands are pretty fantastic. As is the case style,
crown, and sporty looking strap ! Wow !!!

INCREDIBLE collection Max !!!! ..You and your watches get straight A's here sir ! For Your Viewing Pleasure On A Rainy Day Icon_biggrin

THANKS for ALL of these unbelievable pics by the way !

Critique? I don't think so. You've got a wide variety there. Many calssics and some trendy pieces. So fantastic pieces.

If I were to look at it from my perspective, I'd of course make changes. But it ain't my collection.

My favorites:
All 3 Dievas
The Citizen Chrono - what a cool orange hand.
The Breitling is what it is. Awesome.

Thanks for all the positive comments everyonell!!!!!

As Usual Atomic Toms post blows me away. That he spent that much time writing about MY watches is a singular thrill. A special thanks to you. I am going to print that out and preserve it along with my other watch papers. What great comments.

As you can see, tritium tubes and Watchadoo bracelets are my special weakness.

All the above watches except 3 were purchased on deals or pre loved in the past 4 years. (2 were gifts and the UN was my Uncles so enjoys a special spot)

Ive sold off about 15 in the past year, (50 since I started collecting). Some I wasnt too happy parting with but I am determined to limit numbers to have the time to enjoy wearing all my collection.
(Maybe I should post a list of pictures of the sold ones also. Very Happy)

Want to sell a few more but cant bear to part with any of these yet.
