Collector Description
Have enjoyed watches for most of my life, and thankfully have had the means to pursue and explore the hobby more over the last 10 years.
My first luxury watch was an Explorer 214270, commemorating a big milestone. Years and many transactions later I've landed here - 6 watches with different vibes and functions, all getting similar amounts of wear time. Who knows how long this season will last, but enjoying it in the mean time.
From L to R, top then bottom:
2010s Cartier Tank Américaine
2022 Tudor Ranger
Fenix 7s (w/ Solace band)
2010s Rolex Day Date
2022 Gasshütte Original SeaQ
2023 Rolex GMT-Master II
The Sprite was the most recent pickup - I loved the colorway (matches my SeaQ and DD), and surprisingly, love wearing a watch on my right hand. Have since started switch-hitting with all my watches.
Thanks for taking a look.
