FudgyDocker 3,497 Posted January 14, 2020 Now that I've nearly filled my 24 slot watchbox, I thought I'd share with what I've obtained over the last year, having started 2019 with about 3 watches. This is for my own reference as well as anything else, so I don't forget what everything is! I do like micro-brand gens as well as reps, so there's a mixture in there. I'll do some better pictures when I have more time if anyone is interested. Row 1:- Reps Ebel 1911 Discovery - A7750 - my latest acquisition from M2M PAM127 - KW Special Editon "Ultimate" - A6497-2 fully decorated, on 26mm Nero Patek Philippe Nautilus 5711/1A - MK V6, Miyota 9015 Hysek Abyss Explorer - Factory unknown - A7753 with massive 56 hour PR. Not seen another one of these. A Lange & Sohne Datograph Flyback RG - Noob ST-19 on genuine croc strap Rolex SeaDweller Deep Sea "Deep Blue" - Noob V7 Modded & finished by forum member "Plankton", upgraded by Rolie to Gen ETA 2836-2 Breitling Chronomat "Raven" - A7750, factory unknown Omega 300m Diver - VSF V2, A2824 Row 2:- Reps Blancpain Fifty Fathoms RG - Noob, upgraded to Gen ETA 2836-2 by Rolie Breitling Avenger Sea Wolf - H Fac V1, with Gen ETA 2836-2 from factory IWC Spitfire - A7750, V6F Rolex DateJust II - 41mm - A2836, factory unknown Breitling SuperOcean 2 44mm - Noob A2836 Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean 2210.50.00 - A7750 Low Beat - bought from Turkey in 2009. Panerai PAM 1359 - DHGate, TY2555 Vacheron Constantin "Metiers D'Art Villes Lumieres" Geneve - Miyota 9015 decorated to 2460SC, factory unknown. Never seen another of these, but I suspect that it is a prototype. Row 3 - Micro Brand Gens Ingersoll "The Scoville" - Miyota 821A Spinnaker Bradner - Seiko NH35A Glycine Combat 6 Classic - Sellita SW200-1 Filippo Loreti "Rome" - Miyota 8215 Spinnaker Amalfi Diver - Seiko NH35A Spinnaker Cahill - Miyota 8215 Montage Prestige - Miyota 9015 Outside the box, as it's too fucking big! Panerai - PAM341 Egiziano in PVD - no idea on movement 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SCShrek 494 Posted January 14, 2020 You realize the 5711 looks tiny and not your style at all. You have my address. Good looking collection there mate. PS. You need some vintage. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You need some vintage. The Patek is one of the few watches I have that'll fit under a cuff, on the rare occasion that I wear a shirt. Added to that, it's fucking beautiful. Still not feeling the vintage vibe. As I've told @NCRich more than once, I don't appreciate his creations to the level that I should, but do appreciate what goes into them. 4 minutes ago, deju said: Nice to see a diverse collection too.

Wolf Windsors are wider. But they cost a bloody fortune. I think @TheGingerFerret has them, but he got a good deal on his. Not paying £200 for em! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MAJ75 922 Posted January 14, 2020 Certainly an eclectic collection picked up at an impressive rate of knots @FudgyDocker! The IWC Spitfire stands out like a beacon calling me as it has been on my list for ages... How are you feeling generally? have you quenched the thirst or still planning more aquisitions?

There's only a couple of reps that I would want. Although most are 21J, I find the micro-brand gens a lot more interesting design-wise. They seem to be making an effort, whereas the big boys are just churning out the same old stuff, it seems. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I had a quick look today for another one and the cheapest I can find is Jomashop which was something like £120 delivered, but then you're likely to get fucked on import duty. I might risk it anyway. I paid £115 for mine in a sale from H Johnson but they don't even stock Wolf Windsor products any more/at the minute. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am trying to get down to 30...Taking your advice...more quality, less quantity. 19 minutes ago, FudgyDocker said: I befriended a buddy in America on a replica watch forum.
