3 - Movado / Citizen / Citizen - 202406062238
Collector:
I’m new to watch collecting so take it easy on me. The Movado was a graduation gift I received about 15 years ago but never really wore it and stored it in the closet. While on a trip, my brother-in-law took me to a watch store and talked me into getting the Citizen Tsuyosa and just loved it. Since then I have been binging on Watch collecting videos and have been learning so much. Came across a video on the Citizen Chandler and liked the simplicity of it. Trying not to be impulsive so I’m just doing my homework until I see one I want to add to collection.

3 - Frederique Constant / Atelier Wen / Tissot - 202406052326
Collector:
It took a while to arrive, but arrive it did. Some of the nicest packaging I've had as well.
This new Perception V2 absolutely blows it out of the water. Dial is something else, finish work is excellent and it's super comfortable on the wrist.
I have tried the rubber strap as well and that is also a thing of beauty.
Anyway, some photos and a family photo with my other integrated bracelet watches.

Collector:
Where to take the collection?
The Aqua Terra Small Seconds is my daily, and switch between the steel bracelet and the leather NATO strap. Looking to add another serious watch here - what do you think is a good next step? Stuck between the Rolex Explorer 36mm, Grand Seiko SBGM221, and Tudor Black Bay 58, although definitely open to other ideas.

3 - Omega / Rolex / Tudor - 202406051851
Collector:
My current three watch collection! I’ve sifted through quite a bit of watches across different brands, and have finally landed on these three. Got the DJ last year for my 30th birthday, then purchased the BB58 later in the year. Yesterday I got the new white Speedy. Hoping to add a Pepsi or Bluesy one day to round out my collection for good! Not pictured I have a G-Shock and an Invicta that was gifted to me by a friend. Curious to see everyone else’s take on a “perfect” Three collection in the comments! Thanks!

3 - Ulysse Nardin / IWC / Franck Muller - 202406042330
Collector:
My Trifecta 👊 Let’s see what you’ve got!
My first watch purchased was the Ulysses Nardin Maxi Marine (left) following a good work year. Loved the relative simplicity and symmetrical nature of it compared to other Ulysses Nardin watches.
The IWC Portugieser “Blue Panda” was next and replaced my Ulysses for most days.
The latest edition was the Franck Muller 5850 “Vegas” which I just got and love it! Bought with recent casino wins and taking it to the casino in a few weeks…
By far my favorite three in my collection. Also, my only three.

2 - Chopard / Universal Geneve - 202406042248
Collector:
Two different timekeepers for different occasions. The Tri-Compax normally goes with me to the office, and the Mille Miglia is for more casual situations, I love them both, and enjoy that these are less common to see.

AI Review Highlights:
This duo pairs the modern Chopard Mille Miglia Classic Chronograph's motorsport-inspired automatic timing prowess with the ultra-rare vintage Universal Genève Tri-Compax Chronograph Moonphase in 14k gold, creating a cohesive theme around high-end racing chronographs that blend contemporary accessibility with 1960s collector appeal for enthusiasts seeking heritage-driven tool watches with complications.

10 - JLC / Leica / Rolex / Cartier / Rolex / Cartier / Patek Philippe / Patek Philippe / Richard Mille / Patek Philippe - 202405292353
Collector:
I got my first watch in 2008 (the Datejust pictured), and have been hooked ever since. I started out mostly focused on Rolex and Patek, but have really fallen in love with Cartier recently. The RM 65-01 is my latest purchase, and I have been absolutely hooked. I have always loved skeletonized watches and have had a deep appreciation for Richard Mille for years. I was finally able to pull the trigger on my dream model a month ago. One of my more interesting pieces is the Leica ZM 1. Not everyone knows about it, but some photography enthusiasts will get a kick out of it. Anyhow, if you have interest in posts about any specific watch just let me know. I will be happy to take more pictures and make posts in the coming days. All of my pieces were bought at retail from boutiques and AD’s, so I am happy to give advice about that as well.

4 - Timex / Seiko / Citizen / Nixon - 202405282352
Collector:
Fairly new to watches and wanted to see how I started off. Was pretty happy finding the Citizen (ref 21-2521) for $40. I do think I overpaid for the Seiko Alba Vient ($100) but I do love the watch. Would appreciate any input or tips on what to look for. I’m really interested in collecting only vintage Japanese movement.

AI Review Highlights:
This compact collection spotlights affordable quartz watches with aspirational complications like moonphases and dual time, mixing vintage-inspired dressy pieces from Timex and Citizen with a travel-ready Seiko Alba and a fun, rugged Nixon digital, perfectly suited for the budget-savvy collector prioritizing unique dials and functions over high-end mechanics.

Here are some of my favorite watches in my collection at the moment.

Rolex Bright Blue Datejust: My go-to choice for fancy affairs, dinners or special events.

5 - Tudor / Oris / Omega / Rolex / Rolex - 202405260242
Collector:
Got the collection narrowed down to 5 key pieces, with the last pickup (explorer ll) being my grail! Pretty comfortable with this lineup and am looking to enjoy these watches for the foreseeable future. Only change I could see happening is switching out the Tudor BB pro for the new Tudor black monochrome unveiled at watches and wonders. Open to any thoughts and suggestions you guys may have on the current SOTC and what to aim for in the future. Take care, y’all!
