Thanks lots of research before buying most, some were more passion purchases then others however. No regrets

I have 2 out of all those that I would sell as they don't make me feel inspired like the others. But I have to wear them a few more times each to be certain

I'm in no rush, so it's fun to discuss with others who have taken the journey and have several watches like this.
It's good you're taking your time! There are a lot out there. To prove it, I pretty much spent a couple of hours a day for the better part of a year researching watches and am still surprised every once in a while when I come across a brand I haven't seen yet. So many new watches come out every year too, it's hard to keep track of.

Things like the Rolex will stay with a very consistent design for a long time, which is good in many ways. You're not always looking for the next new version because they are few and far between. That being said, they redesigned a lot and introduced a couple in the last few years to try and update their image. But I suspect most will stay as the new design for many years before this happens again.

Sorry, the Zurich is on my wrist as we speak, being used as a travel watch at the moment since I can change the time zone at the push of a button

And one of my favourites for its simplicity

Thanks!

Been a long hard road, I'm pretty satisfied with the collection as it stands. There's only a handful of others I'd to add to the collection at this point. Some are more dream then reality though.
