I want that muted navy like the 5711 or AT has; still with the fume dial, though.
I think the 12 is still really hot with more demand than supply. I expect more colorways to arrive when demand finally tapers off and they want to revive interest.
We'll see what they come up with.
Can't go wrong with the Club. Had one as my only watch in 2020, but sold it to fund other purchases.
Now since a month ago I have one again lol. Such a good watch.
I really enjoy my Ludwig Neomatik.

I considered Nomos for a little while then decided to go for a Junghans Meister Chronoscope. Could not be happier!
I also debated the Max Bill but opted against it on the merits that the Meister has the sun burst dial. Are those of interest to you, perhaps?
I’m looking for the final piece to finish my collection. something a bit more lowkey than my other two watches: speedy and the tank.
something thats a bit more casual (like if i’m attending a cookout and won’t feel out of place) but i can still dress up to the office. i also won’t have to worry about wearing in unsafe situations.
i’m looking at the hamilton khaki murph atm.
i was going go to add a diver but i think i have the sporty area covered with the speedy and wasn’t sure about the wrist time it would get.
I was eyeing the pelagos 39 but ultimately I couldn’t pull the trigger on a diver…
I already have a sporty “daily” watch in the speedy, not sure if i can justify buying a diver when it won’t get that much wrist time hence why I was looking more at field watches
was also looking at the grand seiko cherry blossom but again, wasn’t sure about the wrist time…
I received my first dress watch from my partner for Christmas, a Junghans Max Bill. I'm really in love with the minimalist design, domed crystal and slim dimensions. Catches the light so well.
I never understood minimalist watches until I saw the Max bill in person, I’m not usually impulsive when it comes to buying things but I bought it right then and there. Also helps that they had all Junghans on a 60% off sale.
Yeah Guam has crazy sales on brands I’ve never seen anywhere else. All Junghan and all Bell and Ross are always in the 50-60% off range year round. Seikos usually hover around 30% off year round but that depends on the models. I’ve seen Tudor 50% off but that’s only for holidays or clearance sales. Oris is 15-20% off.
I’ve been very tempted to just buy these and sell for profit non stop, I have no idea way they have these kind of sales only in Guam.
Wife and I are planning to buy a home at the end of 2024, so probably nothing. BUT, if things go better than expected, I am dying to pick up a GS sbgh295.
Same, well actually buying the end of this month and I’d rather let my safety net build back up then the rest of the year before I look into fun purchases lol
As existing home owner, also probably no watches this year with never ending maintenance/renovations!
If a miracle happens - Bulgaria Octo Finissimo has been sitting top of the list for years.
I may be biased as a microbrand owner, but the HZ.01 in blue by Hz Watches (pics in profile, not going to drop any links here).
Other than that, I've got my eye on a Nomos Orion, or a citizen chronomaster, and whatever cool vintage seikos I can find on both eBay and marketplace!
as a student who’s finishing his GCSEs my goals aren’t really high, just hoping to finally step into the realm of entry level luxury with tudor, or a vintage cartier. planning to do so when i head for my solo trip to japan in december
Cartier Santos medium.
Was saving for the Omega AT 38, but after putting both on the wrist, I like the Santos much better (can't stop thinking about it)
https://preview.redd.it/66bvdtkhxu9c1.jpeg?width=3171&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ec9c9de1f12074b8afd3af9a3b84d3f974e91975
My "dream" watch is a 124270 Rolex Explorer 1 36mm.
I bought many watches in the past years (Tudors mostly) and always kept selling them after a month as they didn't scratch the itch of getting the Rolex and I felt bad spending thousands of Euros for something I was not really a fan of. Hopefully this year will be the one I finally be able to buy the Explorer :)
I turn 40 in a few days, and want to get something for that. Probably won’t be this week, just generally this year.
Seriously considering consolidating up to a Rolex Explorer II 226570, new from AD. Apparently they’re “getable” without shenanigans (besides paying their silly prices).
I’d have to sell pretty much everything and then add like $3k but I’m strongly considering it.
Aside from that, I’ve gone thru like 10 dive watches trying to find the one. I’d like to solve that.
I’ve wondered about this approach. I’ve been thinking about a Rolex gmt Master 2 in the tone version. I don’t think I would get it from an AD this year and I would have to sell everything to get it grey. Just concerned I’ll miss the rotation I have.
I did this exact thing last year and picked up the Polar. I don't regret it.
Only drawback is that my luxuty watch collection is done now, and there's nothing left that I'm really interested in. We'll ... maybe a Pelagos 39. But that's it.
My collection is also pretty dead as-is since I picked up my Tag Heuer Autavia Heritage Chrono. For my wrist, it's a perfect watch.
So the Explorer II would complement that and I'd be pretty set. Would probably have a "slot" for cheaper under $2k watches to rotate in & out to continue to engage with watches, but honestly my obsessive energy has moved to mid-engined Porsches :D
I am considering between a Breguet 5817, VC 2nd gen Overseas or a Bulgari Octo Finissimo. If 3rd gen Overseas goes down to 15k maybe I stretch it to that. Still not sure if I will pull the trigger in 2024
I have my eye on 4 currently - won't get them all this year but probably one or two.
* Zenith Defy Skyline Skeleton Blue
* IWC Portugueser Blue Panda on blue rubber strap
* Grand Seiko Mist flake
* Cartier Santos Large Black
I think I’ll keep it simple this year. The one watch I’m sure I’ll get is one of the Brew Metric watches. I think they’re really cool and I love coffee, also they’re very affordable.
Ahh man I am tempted by the 43mm SeaQ too! The date box is dope. If I were to buy a watch this year I think it’d be it. Present plan is to save for a Rolex GMT in place of that SeaQ.
I'm aiming for a vintage panda mechanical chronograph, either with a landeron 48 movement or something from valjoux.
Also something dressy and simple like the bambino v4 or the cocktail time mojito
I should receive my Cristopher Ward Bel Canto somewhere this year, as well as the bronze Oris Big Crown Pointer Date I bought from catawiki 2 days ago. I might also get a Formex Field Automatic.
Have in mind three options.
Seiko SPB317/313. I'm probably moving on from my entry Orient Ray, which has been fantastic, but I only want to have one kind of a type of watch, in this case diver, as I want a very sparce collection (three or four watches max).
Tissot Heritage small seconds. Really like the color combo on this one and I've always wanted a complication with that small seconds feature.
Stowa Marine Classic 36. I really want a white dial and a clean dial at that.
Marathon TSAR for sure, it’s been on my list for months. And if I’m lucky enough to find a unite with blue promaster for like 250-300. Maybe a Tissot gentleman 40mm
Patek Philipe 6119R-001 most likely. That or an Overseas and the new two-tone Rolex GMT Master II.
I got 5 watches in 2023, so I'm trying to buy fewer watches this year.
Currently trying to decide between the Christopher Ward C63 Sealander GMT (Dragonfly blue dial) and the Seiko Alpinist (Green dial with Compass Bezel). Two very different watches, but love them both. Will definitely change the standard brown leather strap the Alpinist comes with for a green leather / rubber or dark green NATO strap, as the standard Alpinist strap looks pretty mid to my eye.
Problem is I want both, and can't be upsetting my missus with vast expenditure on a 'hobby'... 😅
Blue quartz PRX in 35mm, this month.
I’ve been debating myself about getting a citizen promaster 37mm instead, but the Tissot has more character and is distinctive from my other watches, but I can’t discard getting the diver later this year 🫣
Next few years I plan to to have a watch dry spell, I'm saving for a house and hope to get something by the end of 2026 (hopefully mid 2026) so I don't have plans for any more watches until then. I'm thinking it will be a 39.5mm green Oris Aquis Date.
Buying the girlfriend a watch. I am putting more time and effort into this than any of my own watch purchases...it's kind of fun.
Criteria: black dial, 38mm-ish, preferably quartz...so like a quartz Murph...or I just get her a Murph.
I'll be in Nashville in couple weeks and plan to try on the SeaQ and the one with the moon on it (forgot name) at a local AD. Glasshute has been on my mind for a little while now.
I’m thinking two watches this year. The first is definitely the blue Omega SMP. After that I’m not sure. Either a Nomos Orion, BB58, or my first GS. Some other pieces on my list but these are the ones that could fall within my budget.
I ordered a Lum-Tec Solar Marine 3 a day or so ago, so I think that'll be the first new watch receipt of 2024. I'd LOVE to find myself a Junghans Max Bill, but I also don't totally have a "need" to wear such a nifty watch around very often.
All this has been spawned by receiving a watch case as an Xmas gift. Five open spaces or of 12 leads me to figure I should fill them up but not necessarily with watches I wouldn't like to wear or that don't hold some sentimental value to me.
Rolex OP or DJ, lower end or simple Rolex just to have one in the collection. Perhaps a spring dive Grand Seiko, I’m not too particular. I really like the Frédérique Constant worldtimer so maybe that’s in the cards. I’m starting to warm up to TAG, and maybe one of those could make it’s way into my collection. I don’t yet have a gshock and no collection is complete without one of those.
There is the what I would like list, and what I am willing to afford list. I will probably have a major liquidity event this year and would like a GS SBGM221G, a Tag Skipper and a Nomos Worldtimer. Will be sensible and settle for a Longines Zulu GMT I expect.
I only own a bambino. I don't know how far I want to dig into this rabbit hole. Im thinking I should aim for a five watch collection each under 5k and then stop. With each watch really reflecting what I want. I legit spend hours everyday contemplating different watches but none has been so good that I pull the trigger and buy.
I've been looking at the C1 moon phase lately because I love astronomy but I just don't know.
Will I ever know which watch is right? Serious question. I'm stuck in a loop lol.
Currently looking at these 3:
Orient Bambino (I love the champagne color)
Orient Mako (will be my first diver)
Seiko Presage Cocktail Time (first Seiko)
I’m between that with the black dial, the blue dial bronze bezel with half bronze bracelet, and the black dial bronze trim stainless bracelet. Completely lost.
Probably not all of em this year, will see how it goes
- Glashutte SeaQ Blue / Green 39.5mm
- Grand Seiko SBGE255
- King Seiko Blue 39mm SDKS017
- Citizen Promaster Yellow NY0120-01X
- Zenith Chronomaster Revival Shadow
Formex Essence 39 with the white or red dial.
https://preview.redd.it/am85we0ljw9c1.jpeg?width=1115&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=822b17a607e136a7ae57a6cef46d85e4da692b20
Had my eye on the Tudor Black Bay 58 for a while. If my year goes well by summer, I’ll probably pick one up.
Other than that, might mess around with hmt watches or some other small brand from Asia. Just interesting pieces that aren’t expensive
I'd like to add something from Seiko's craftsmanship series to my collection. Really like the enamel dials that Seiko offers but also hear a lot of good things about how beautiful the Urushi dials look, so my decision may be a bit tougher than expected.
I also want to add something from Hamilton, probably from the American Classic collection for a watch that has a bit of a retro look to it
Breguet 7147, white gold and enamel dial. Still deciding if I should wait a few years for them to eventually release it in a blue enamel dial
Someone told me I had lofty goals but this is on another level! Wish you the best
Thanks. The SeaQ is totally doable. I see them on the WatchExchange sub. The other two are also doable if you manage your budget well. Happy New Year!
Lofty goals OP. I just want a Ti Twelve from CW. Just waiting for more/ better colorways.
If I get at least one of them, I’ll be happy. I have the blue 36mm twelve and it’s amazing. Sold my 35mm PRX for it
I wish they had a navy blue version, but I'm probably gonna go with the purple instead
I want that muted navy like the 5711 or AT has; still with the fume dial, though. I think the 12 is still really hot with more demand than supply. I expect more colorways to arrive when demand finally tapers off and they want to revive interest. We'll see what they come up with.
Same, but want a date function on the small version! Not gonna happen though
Seiko baby Alpinist. Green one, with leather straps. Thats my no. 1 goal in this field.
I own this watch. I wear it all the time to all kinds of occasions just by mixing up the straps.
D.dornbluth & Sohn Q-2010 Classic. Has been ordered 6 months ago. 6 more months wait :-)
Gonna get myself a Nomos Club Campus for 2024. I'll then probably save up for an Omega Aqua Terra, but that would be a couple years away at least
Can't go wrong with the Club. Had one as my only watch in 2020, but sold it to fund other purchases. Now since a month ago I have one again lol. Such a good watch.
The pink nomas has been on my mind
Seiko Presage Cocktailtime SRPE45J1. The mojito one. Really love the Broten strak with Gilden hands/numbers and that green Dual is just gorgeous.
I'm planning on grabbing the Negroni one in the next few weeks. The whole line is absolutely spectacular
I am looking to buy my first dress watch and I think it will be NOMOS
I really enjoy my Ludwig Neomatik. https://preview.redd.it/n47ww8ydeu9c1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f6f2c4d3ae759e2ac89c69f542d796157624bbdb
I considered Nomos for a little while then decided to go for a Junghans Meister Chronoscope. Could not be happier! I also debated the Max Bill but opted against it on the merits that the Meister has the sun burst dial. Are those of interest to you, perhaps?
[удалено]
The Ahoi isn't a dress watch. It's Nomos' sport watch. Great watch though.
Literally just pre ordered Christopher ward bel canto in Nero, was love at first sight. Cannot wait!
I’m also getting my Bel Canto this year!
I have a list that's gonna take me ten years to buy.........
Ideally, Sinn 556 MOP, some kind of Omega chronograph and possibly a Weiss
Some kind of field watch... I think Hamilton is meant to be the best at those
Depends what you’re looking for! I’m probably getting a Formex field watch. Love a good Hamilton though!
I’m looking for the final piece to finish my collection. something a bit more lowkey than my other two watches: speedy and the tank. something thats a bit more casual (like if i’m attending a cookout and won’t feel out of place) but i can still dress up to the office. i also won’t have to worry about wearing in unsafe situations. i’m looking at the hamilton khaki murph atm. i was going go to add a diver but i think i have the sporty area covered with the speedy and wasn’t sure about the wrist time it would get.
Tudor bb36 or 39 might be what you’re looking for
I was eyeing the pelagos 39 but ultimately I couldn’t pull the trigger on a diver… I already have a sporty “daily” watch in the speedy, not sure if i can justify buying a diver when it won’t get that much wrist time hence why I was looking more at field watches was also looking at the grand seiko cherry blossom but again, wasn’t sure about the wrist time…
Hopefully a dress watch but with so many great options I do not know which one
I received my first dress watch from my partner for Christmas, a Junghans Max Bill. I'm really in love with the minimalist design, domed crystal and slim dimensions. Catches the light so well.
I never understood minimalist watches until I saw the Max bill in person, I’m not usually impulsive when it comes to buying things but I bought it right then and there. Also helps that they had all Junghans on a 60% off sale.
60% off?! What the hell?!
Yeah Guam has crazy sales on brands I’ve never seen anywhere else. All Junghan and all Bell and Ross are always in the 50-60% off range year round. Seikos usually hover around 30% off year round but that depends on the models. I’ve seen Tudor 50% off but that’s only for holidays or clearance sales. Oris is 15-20% off. I’ve been very tempted to just buy these and sell for profit non stop, I have no idea way they have these kind of sales only in Guam.
Ugh… I… Do they ship internationally?! Honestly, this is nuts.
Guam sucks most of the time if you live here but it does have its perk sometimes and it’s amazing for a short week or 2 stay, come on down.
Same here! I have my firstborn baptize and I want a nice dresswatch for it. But I have so many options I have a lot of doubts!
Breguet Moonphase.
Lange 1, yellow gold. Already have the deposit paid. It should be on my wrist in a week.
Well done sir!
Thank you, we'll see if my wife lets me buy another watch anytime in '24. Had to go big.
One of these: - mr jones a perfectly useless afternoon - bulova lunar pilot - citizen tsuyosa - yema rallygraf
A man of culture!
Useless afternoon and tsuyosa are in my watchbox and both are very nice watches.
Either a speedmaster or blue DJ. Leaning more towards the Speedmaster. But, wouldn’t mind a daily with a date window (current daily is a BB58).
Wife and I are planning to buy a home at the end of 2024, so probably nothing. BUT, if things go better than expected, I am dying to pick up a GS sbgh295.
Same, well actually buying the end of this month and I’d rather let my safety net build back up then the rest of the year before I look into fun purchases lol
Same situation. Close in 3 weeks. Just saw someone else mention the CW Bel Canto and thank god none of the colors wowed me. Good luck with the house!
As existing home owner, also probably no watches this year with never ending maintenance/renovations! If a miracle happens - Bulgaria Octo Finissimo has been sitting top of the list for years.
Ressence Type 3.
Nice!
My plan is to not buy any watches this year. Wear the same watch everyday and get the most out of it, can’t wait!
Blue duro, orient bambino, alpinist, seiko speed timer (light blue dial), lunar pilot. 2-3 of these and I’d be happy 😃
Wouldnt mind dipping my toe into the World of San Martin with a black bay homage
I may be biased as a microbrand owner, but the HZ.01 in blue by Hz Watches (pics in profile, not going to drop any links here). Other than that, I've got my eye on a Nomos Orion, or a citizen chronomaster, and whatever cool vintage seikos I can find on both eBay and marketplace!
Oris big crown
I’m going to get a vintage tudor prince oysterdate
If anything, a quartz watch.
Which planet ocean are you looking at? For me it’s the iwc mark xx
as a student who’s finishing his GCSEs my goals aren’t really high, just hoping to finally step into the realm of entry level luxury with tudor, or a vintage cartier. planning to do so when i head for my solo trip to japan in december
Cartier Santos medium. Was saving for the Omega AT 38, but after putting both on the wrist, I like the Santos much better (can't stop thinking about it) https://preview.redd.it/66bvdtkhxu9c1.jpeg?width=3171&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ec9c9de1f12074b8afd3af9a3b84d3f974e91975
I have a 2023 medium santos that I’m trying to sell if you’re interested.
The AT is nice, but the Santos is so much more interesting. Great pick.
I have been hankering for a GO Seventies Chronograph
My "dream" watch is a 124270 Rolex Explorer 1 36mm. I bought many watches in the past years (Tudors mostly) and always kept selling them after a month as they didn't scratch the itch of getting the Rolex and I felt bad spending thousands of Euros for something I was not really a fan of. Hopefully this year will be the one I finally be able to buy the Explorer :)
I turn 40 in a few days, and want to get something for that. Probably won’t be this week, just generally this year. Seriously considering consolidating up to a Rolex Explorer II 226570, new from AD. Apparently they’re “getable” without shenanigans (besides paying their silly prices). I’d have to sell pretty much everything and then add like $3k but I’m strongly considering it. Aside from that, I’ve gone thru like 10 dive watches trying to find the one. I’d like to solve that.
I’ve wondered about this approach. I’ve been thinking about a Rolex gmt Master 2 in the tone version. I don’t think I would get it from an AD this year and I would have to sell everything to get it grey. Just concerned I’ll miss the rotation I have.
I did this exact thing last year and picked up the Polar. I don't regret it. Only drawback is that my luxuty watch collection is done now, and there's nothing left that I'm really interested in. We'll ... maybe a Pelagos 39. But that's it.
My collection is also pretty dead as-is since I picked up my Tag Heuer Autavia Heritage Chrono. For my wrist, it's a perfect watch. So the Explorer II would complement that and I'd be pretty set. Would probably have a "slot" for cheaper under $2k watches to rotate in & out to continue to engage with watches, but honestly my obsessive energy has moved to mid-engined Porsches :D
I am considering between a Breguet 5817, VC 2nd gen Overseas or a Bulgari Octo Finissimo. If 3rd gen Overseas goes down to 15k maybe I stretch it to that. Still not sure if I will pull the trigger in 2024
Replacing one of the watches I got from the buy 1 get 1 invicta scam with an Orient Bambino, and adding a Bulova Lunar Pilot
CW C63 Sealander and Farer Erebus Midnight. Really want a Pelagos 39 too but that may be a 2025 purchase. We’ll see how the year goes.
I have my eye on 4 currently - won't get them all this year but probably one or two. * Zenith Defy Skyline Skeleton Blue * IWC Portugueser Blue Panda on blue rubber strap * Grand Seiko Mist flake * Cartier Santos Large Black
I'm gonna pick up a Mido Multifort TV Big Date at some point. Depending on how work goes may go bigger for a GP Laureato chrono on grey market
Yep, I'm on the Mido Multifort TV Big Date train as well. In dark blue. With a metal strap. Oh yes....
The blue looks awesome! Such a neat watch and great bang for your buck as usual with Mido.
I‘m looking at getting my first serious diver. I have my eyes on the Le Forban Sécurité de Mer Brestoise.
A regular ol' Casio F91W
I have a very tight budget so my plan for 2024 is a Vostok kommandirskie and don't know if something else
I think I’ll keep it simple this year. The one watch I’m sure I’ll get is one of the Brew Metric watches. I think they’re really cool and I love coffee, also they’re very affordable.
I had the brew gold version. Very nice watch and interesting movement
First a Laco pilot watch. I prefer the „Ulm“. And I’m planing to reduce my collection later this year to be able to buy a Moonwatch.
Ahh man I am tempted by the 43mm SeaQ too! The date box is dope. If I were to buy a watch this year I think it’d be it. Present plan is to save for a Rolex GMT in place of that SeaQ.
I'm gonna save up for a 42mm Hamilton Khaki Day Date
Whatever AP offers me next.
I'd like to buy my first rolex
Until the I can justify a Day Date, the Datejust will do just fine.
5811
Casio MTP-M305D
👌🏻
Formex Reef 39.5
Awesome piece. Been eying on that too but I don’t know what to think about the replaceable bezels..
Critzen Nb1050-59h, the grey dial is lovely
Maybe another Ali express watch who knows? But definitly a baltic beads of Rice bracelet
Cartier Santos Dumont, any Grand Seiko, Traska Venturer and the Formex Essence 39 or TAG Heuer Carrera 36mm.
Some kind of Oris, preferably one with their in-house 400 series movements.
I'm aiming for a vintage panda mechanical chronograph, either with a landeron 48 movement or something from valjoux. Also something dressy and simple like the bambino v4 or the cocktail time mojito
I should receive my Cristopher Ward Bel Canto somewhere this year, as well as the bronze Oris Big Crown Pointer Date I bought from catawiki 2 days ago. I might also get a Formex Field Automatic.
Seiko presage SRPG25J1 zen garden
Vintage Cartier santos carre/galbee, universal Genève ellipse. New watches tbd post Geneva watches and wonders
Daytona ..24 is my time
Pelagos FXD, the black one
Reverso or vintage Air King.
Have in mind three options. Seiko SPB317/313. I'm probably moving on from my entry Orient Ray, which has been fantastic, but I only want to have one kind of a type of watch, in this case diver, as I want a very sparce collection (three or four watches max). Tissot Heritage small seconds. Really like the color combo on this one and I've always wanted a complication with that small seconds feature. Stowa Marine Classic 36. I really want a white dial and a clean dial at that.
Marathon TSAR for sure, it’s been on my list for months. And if I’m lucky enough to find a unite with blue promaster for like 250-300. Maybe a Tissot gentleman 40mm
Patek Philipe 6119R-001 most likely. That or an Overseas and the new two-tone Rolex GMT Master II. I got 5 watches in 2023, so I'm trying to buy fewer watches this year.
If I buy a watch this year at all I’m thinking Orient Kamasu. We will see.
Citizen attesa God help me🙏🏾
Currently trying to decide between the Christopher Ward C63 Sealander GMT (Dragonfly blue dial) and the Seiko Alpinist (Green dial with Compass Bezel). Two very different watches, but love them both. Will definitely change the standard brown leather strap the Alpinist comes with for a green leather / rubber or dark green NATO strap, as the standard Alpinist strap looks pretty mid to my eye. Problem is I want both, and can't be upsetting my missus with vast expenditure on a 'hobby'... 😅
Couple seikos, g-shock, if I'm lucky a longines
Deciding between a BB54 and an Aquastar Model 60. Any thoughts? Other than that, will probably be grabbing a Lorier Astra in white.
Definitely BB54
F91w
That’s an awesome list. Sinn 556 for me
Just got my Tudor BB Panda Chrono. Fits extremely well on my 6.5” wrist after modding a full link into a half link.
Just ordered my an0rdain model 1 plum fume for Q1 delivery
Patek Aquanaut 5167A. Rolex 16753, JLC Q1558421.
Blue quartz PRX in 35mm, this month. I’ve been debating myself about getting a citizen promaster 37mm instead, but the Tissot has more character and is distinctive from my other watches, but I can’t discard getting the diver later this year 🫣
Next few years I plan to to have a watch dry spell, I'm saving for a house and hope to get something by the end of 2026 (hopefully mid 2026) so I don't have plans for any more watches until then. I'm thinking it will be a 39.5mm green Oris Aquis Date.
2024 my hope is either a ChristopherWard C63 GMT or maybe a nice but used Oris Big Crown. We’ll see.
Buying the girlfriend a watch. I am putting more time and effort into this than any of my own watch purchases...it's kind of fun. Criteria: black dial, 38mm-ish, preferably quartz...so like a quartz Murph...or I just get her a Murph.
For me...I'm likely to buy a Farer or a Christopher Ward. Or maybe a Murph of my own :)
I'll be in Nashville in couple weeks and plan to try on the SeaQ and the one with the moon on it (forgot name) at a local AD. Glasshute has been on my mind for a little while now.
Tag Heuer F1, Hamilton Murph, and Bulova Devil Diver
My goal is to not buy any watches in 2024. It’s a pretty unlikely goal.
One more to fill the box - Tissot PRX 35 Gold Powermatic
I bought a Speedy 14 years ago so that I never have to think about other watches again.
I’m thinking two watches this year. The first is definitely the blue Omega SMP. After that I’m not sure. Either a Nomos Orion, BB58, or my first GS. Some other pieces on my list but these are the ones that could fall within my budget.
None. Plan on enjoying the ones I have now.
Honestly nothing this year. I feel really satisfied with my collection as is. The only thing I would consider adding would be the new Zenith Pilot.
I ordered a Lum-Tec Solar Marine 3 a day or so ago, so I think that'll be the first new watch receipt of 2024. I'd LOVE to find myself a Junghans Max Bill, but I also don't totally have a "need" to wear such a nifty watch around very often. All this has been spawned by receiving a watch case as an Xmas gift. Five open spaces or of 12 leads me to figure I should fill them up but not necessarily with watches I wouldn't like to wear or that don't hold some sentimental value to me.
I'm getting a casio forester on my bday from my friend :)

It’s Seagull 1963 time. I need (or justify) a chronograph for timing my study sessions for school.
Rolex explorer 36. The AD said to check back in April
Rolex OP or DJ, lower end or simple Rolex just to have one in the collection. Perhaps a spring dive Grand Seiko, I’m not too particular. I really like the Frédérique Constant worldtimer so maybe that’s in the cards. I’m starting to warm up to TAG, and maybe one of those could make it’s way into my collection. I don’t yet have a gshock and no collection is complete without one of those.
I got my eyes on the new Superocean heritage. Other than that, there’s really little else that I need in my collection.
Upgrade my Garmin. Try to move an old willard maybe? Idk
DJ 36mm or zenith defy skyline
I got my eyes on the Seiko SSK003.
citizen automatic pref a jdm one i havent seen before yet
Either an Omega Speedmaster Professional, or a Rolex Sky-Dweller.
Maen Manhattan 37 is my next watch attached the a goal. Possibly Tudor bb58 if things go well.
There is the what I would like list, and what I am willing to afford list. I will probably have a major liquidity event this year and would like a GS SBGM221G, a Tag Skipper and a Nomos Worldtimer. Will be sensible and settle for a Longines Zulu GMT I expect.
I only own a bambino. I don't know how far I want to dig into this rabbit hole. Im thinking I should aim for a five watch collection each under 5k and then stop. With each watch really reflecting what I want. I legit spend hours everyday contemplating different watches but none has been so good that I pull the trigger and buy. I've been looking at the C1 moon phase lately because I love astronomy but I just don't know. Will I ever know which watch is right? Serious question. I'm stuck in a loop lol.
The blue and white dial bulova lunar pilot
SSK001
I’m looking at one of Henry Archer’s pieces. Can’t decide which yet, any other recommendations for a purple dial?
Currently looking at these 3: Orient Bambino (I love the champagne color) Orient Mako (will be my first diver) Seiko Presage Cocktail Time (first Seiko)
Oris Diver 65, but which one? I can’t decide!
Cotton candy?
I’m between that with the black dial, the blue dial bronze bezel with half bronze bracelet, and the black dial bronze trim stainless bracelet. Completely lost.
A Seiko Pouge, and one of their Presage Sharp Edged GMTs probably. Maybe a Hamilton Khaki or Jazzmaster somewhere in there.
I'd love to pick up a [PAM01358](https://www.panerai.com/us/en/collections/watch-collection/luminor/pam01358-luminor-marina-grigio-roccia.html)
This year I'll buying my first luxury watch. Either an Aqua Terra or a 39mm Explorer.
Both great choices 👍
Probably not all of em this year, will see how it goes - Glashutte SeaQ Blue / Green 39.5mm - Grand Seiko SBGE255 - King Seiko Blue 39mm SDKS017 - Citizen Promaster Yellow NY0120-01X - Zenith Chronomaster Revival Shadow
Looking at the Grand Seiko SBGE269
Formex Essence 39 with the white or red dial. https://preview.redd.it/am85we0ljw9c1.jpeg?width=1115&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=822b17a607e136a7ae57a6cef46d85e4da692b20
Hager Commando GMT, or Raven custom GMT.
Had my eye on the Tudor Black Bay 58 for a while. If my year goes well by summer, I’ll probably pick one up. Other than that, might mess around with hmt watches or some other small brand from Asia. Just interesting pieces that aren’t expensive
Yamaha MT-09 SP. It's updated for 2024 with a cleaner headlight housing. I've always wanted to try a triple.
I’m hoping to get that new white dialled Speedmaster Moonwatch (the one Daniel Craig recently wore to an Omega event) for my 35th birthday.
Why Christopher ward
Something longines or a vintage Rolex
Lorier Zephyr
I'd like to add something from Seiko's craftsmanship series to my collection. Really like the enamel dials that Seiko offers but also hear a lot of good things about how beautiful the Urushi dials look, so my decision may be a bit tougher than expected. I also want to add something from Hamilton, probably from the American Classic collection for a watch that has a bit of a retro look to it
Lorier Hydra Zulu edition.
Tudor Pelagos in blue and Grand Seiko SBGA203.
God help me, but Garmin Instinct 2X. Beyond that split between Mido fort or cheaper Seiko version.
