Most of us already have gens.  Different brands for different reasons.

F.P. Journe. As far as I know there aren't any reps. I love a couple of their models but they're moving towards 42 mm now and there will be something eventually that I have to have.

At this point, I probably won't buy another high-end gen.....this hobby has ruined it for me. But in a good way. 

Between buying reps, building vintage/homage watches, etc, I've just realized the input costs of parts and the real labor specialty to build just isn't as "magical" as I used to think.  Really crystallizes the point that gens are massively marked up and just aren't worth what you pay.  Anything more than $2,500 or so, and you're just paying for brand not mov't or engineering, etc........which is fine, I just can't look past it anymore. 

Plus with 40+ watches is my collection at this point, it has become clear that these are just trinkets....I don't wear my gens or my grail builds more than the latest shiny rep I bought, so I wouldn't really get the "value" of a new shiny, expensive watch. I'd still wear it once every couple of weeks...at best, just like every other watch in my rotation.

If I had to have one Gen watch it be an AP. 

I don’t have to so it’s not on my gen radar just now.

Well, I have several gens and I bought them because I like them! :lol:

Having said that, some had other influencing reasons, like my Rado “Andy Murray” HyperChrome and the Omega Moonie, but mostly l just liked them.

I would get the $2,020,000 Richard Mille 56-02 Tourbillon Sapphire.

Why?

Because it would mean I am either  a shipping magnate, the owner of a global oil company, or a Russian ex-KGB oligarch. 

I would sure miss chatting with you guys though.  :coffee:

Let's not forget that bronze and blue Christopher Ward watch of yours that I'm rather fond of.

Either of these two, but probably the Jacob & Co. TBH...  Pretty sure I'd spend all day just marvelling at them, looking forward to a rep someday soon?
