Sharing my updated collection here - like we say “feels like I’m in a really good spot right now and won’t change much” but we all know that’s not true. I added some color in the GS SBGW277, 126720 VTNR (yes I am a lefty), and Pelagos blue. Also took the plunge and made my first vintage purchase, a 1980s Cartier 2960 slate dial. Hope you enjoy!
