My collection, two need to go

[japer]

Dear geeks,

This my current collection, already heavily thinned out the herd. Still, two need to go in order to make place for the new datejust palm leaf and a Batman.. and the two empty places will be filled with other brands some day..

which two would you let go?

IMO:

The Breitling. 1) It’s a really horrible bit of fussy watch design, covered in minuscule writing impossible to read or understand. 2) It’s not a Rolex. 3) Did I mention it’s horrible?

And if there has to be a second one… the Hulk. It seems the logical one for the chop to me, based on the incoming watches.

But really you should invest in another watch box and that way you can buy even more Rolex reps.

You should still get rid of that Breitling though. It’s horrible.

EDIT: Whoops, pardon me for mistaking the Cermit for a Hulk. My eyes were watering from accidentally trying to read the text on the Breitling.

Get rid of the ones without wrist time.... collecting is boring, wearing is fun (my opinion)

 

[Star70]

I totally agree with p0pperini mate,but if you are selling the grey DJ pls pm me

 

[StreetFighter]

Logical answer for me would be a bigger box.

 

[P..DR..D]

Whilst I am a fan of Breitling, in this collection, it'd probably be chop number 1. And not because its that horrible, just very different clearly to all your other choices so you obviously have a style you like the look of.

Then the two tone Datejust stands out too, unless its sentimental.

But I agree with p0pperini & StreetFighter
another solution is to buy an additional (maybe even bigger) box

Which are you leaning towards yourself, and why?

Hahaha, love the fact that you’re brutally honest! The breitling is less ugly in person, however it might have to go though..

Haha, you got me confused here . The TT is a girls watch in my opinion, belonged to my ex. It’s a gen from early 70’s. You like it?

would be a great option! However, i wear only half already..

I'm different. I don't own 40 different Submariners (I own none) like some folks here. My personal collection is small and diverse so that I have a proper watch for every occasion. Yours is Rolex heavy, and although the two tone Datejust is different, it's just butt-ugly in my book. Dump that clunker.

That TT is lovely. I’ll fight VG87 for it.

I will definitely keep the GMT and the Kermit. Probably the Grey DJ for now. The rest might go. However, the SD is about 13 years old and have proven to be insanely reliable..

the GMT is in a league if it’s own, so gorgeous and ofcourse a good investment. The Kermit is a looker, the green is so beautiful and a true swimmer. The DJ is also a looker, especially outside, get’s a lot of compliments.

I have thin wrists

Thinner than p0pperini 's

I win :thumbsup:

I will give the breitling to a friend, he loves Breitling. Tomorrow is his birthday. I think i won’t get much for it in a sale.. it’s a 15 year old genuine Montbrillant

That's the decision made so - First 2 gone :thumbsup:

And if number 2 is a GEN, happy days, some serious cash will be incoming. All the more reason to buy a bigger box

P.s. If you want to PM the spec/model number etc of the Montbrillant, if you are selling that is, and the price was right, we could set up a reserved sale. Have a GEN Montbrillant myself and it'd be more curiosity than anything to see how the rep stands up beside it.

Either way, very nice collection, best of luck with whatever you decide & have a great weekend.

:goodluck:

Thanks for the help. However, the Breitling is a full genuine watch..

This is such a gen forum sort of question - like ‘I have no idea how to make up my mind so I’ll ask a bunch of strangers what watches I should prefer…’

Get another / bigger watch box man.
