Amazing collection, photography and write up.

Shouldn’t it be a ‘crew’ of Submariners though?

Wow ????! Incredible collection! Even more so that you just started collecting them just over 2 years ago!

Thanks, and dammit! I knew someone would come up with a better collective noun! :)

Fantastic collection! (Squadron? Flotilla?) Congrats!
Would suggest adding a Ruby insert and Yuki handset to your 5517. Maybe a Ruby dial too. (I would say MQ, but as well as pricey, he can be a bugger to deal with too.) All easy mods. If you go a little further and add an Athaya 702 crown and tube too you’d be golden. The old Cartel cases with welded bars were a great starting point for a 5517 build.

If the "5 digits Sub team" other thread of yours was only an appetizer, then this is the "main plate" subs collection. Simply Fantastic!

I see the RAT was helpfull, it's time to patent this tool lol.

Thoroughly enjoyed this little curated tour, on first reading I thought that no one could have need for 36 subs, but they are all so different that it now seems perfectly legitimate. Indeed, I look forward to seeing more added to the collection.

Lovely photos as well, the lighting is fantastic!

What an awesome collection! Thank you for sharing.
A couple things....
Only two years and now ‘this’! I guess you put a couple things on the back burner and went to school! Lol
And if this is just two years what did that Swatch collection end up looking like?!
you have some of the coolest builds/frankens and yet your fav is a bone stock BP. This makes me even more relaxed than I already was, content to sit back and enjoy my un modded reps just as they are. So, thanks for that too.
