What should I get next ?....

Recommended Posts

Olly

Hi fellas,

 

 

So i've just parted with my Explorer and DSSD and now i need to replace them.

 

 

Ill list the watches i have owned so that helps the decisions.

 

BK DSSD

BK SubC

PAM 111

Explorer II 42mm Black

AP Diver

AP Diver Carbon

 

And i currently own:

 

Franken Planet Ocean

Rolex TC Sub 16610 Maxi

Omega 613 Date

 

 

 

Now i don't now what the hell to buy.

 

I've been thinking about the new Tudor BB and the Noob Planet Ocean Ceramic but what else is there i can decide between ???

 

From the watches above could you suite me to a certain watch ? I don't mind AP, Omega, Rolex, IWC, Panerai, Breitling. Anything below 45mm please.

 

If anyone owns the new Tudor BB or the Noob Planet Ocean Ceramic can you please post some pics so i can see the true quality rather than the TD pics.

 

My budget is £500. No limit on number of watches.

 

Thanks for all your help :)

Didn't you fall for my custard Seawolf? That's the watch you need.

 

Having said that, I have a Tudor BB and love it but not sure my photos do it any justice ;)

Oh victoria that pic helped !!!!!!! Cheers :) The Yellow seawolf did catch my attention but it was a little big and heavy for my liking :(

 

Is the crystal on that clear or not ?

Definitely the black bay mate. It's just so good for the money. Also a skyland avenger is worth considering. Was never a breitling fan but had two now and just a lovely watch

So many great watches to choose from.

Well, I have been seeing more Tudors lately and think they look great.

The PAM would give you a different experience than the other watches you presently have.

I would suggest that you find one and try it on before you invest.

They are fantastic watches, but a bit of an acquired taste.

The 111 wears large IMO.

Definitely a watch with presence!

 

Happy shopping Olly.

:)

Crystal is nicely domed with AR and looks beautiful. The whole watch looks beautiful Olly!

Just buy one and if you don't like it it will sell faster in M2M than your Explorer II did ;)

Well with the PO, you've already got two dive watches, so I'd personally go for a different look to broaden the collection.

 

I've got the the PAM 505 from TS, link below, and love it. It says 45MM in the description but mine measures just under and wears/feels under cause its TI.

http://www.tswatchltd.com/14889-pa1489-tswatch-project-pam505-o-radiomir-black-seal-ti-dlc-1-1-best-p3000.html

 

On the same note, the PAM 089 TI is at 44MM and wears lighter cause of the TI.

Both are more casual watches and the 505 has a throwback feel.

Olly, BB for sure......love my one and in fact I will buy another as a spare :)

 

I have also just picked up the Good Planet GMT from Josh which I love apart from the flat GMT logo (Gen is raised)

 

Also consider the upcoming Fifty Fathoms and Linde Werdelin "The One" both look very nice and are just a bit different from the norm.....hopefully coming to a TD near you soon, or try Angus at PT (not an RWG TD I might add).

 

Or why not try the superb JLC Navy Seals Diver.......
