Damn what a collection, dispay cases look excellent, how do you even begin to decide what to wear:wacko:

:sharkey:

Have you ever worked out how many Gen's that you could buy if you sold your collection?

Those look great, Sam. What a collection. Pretty soon you'll be giving Tanfo a run for his money. Nice job!

oh my god!... how many watches!!

your display cases look great, I'd be like a kid in a sweet shop looking at those - I bet you have to put a ringed fence around it when your mates come round otherwise there would be hand a face prints all over the glass.

Great effort and great collection

Awesome collection indeed, mate!

...But there´s a wallclock sitting there in the middle of the Panerais, is that counting too?
LOL

Cheers,
Spirit.

Wow! A mega selection of choices! A lot of very nice pieces in there, some I recognise...

Hats off to you mate, that is impressive. :)

Maybe you could get some branding to go above the top shelf to fill the backdrop

The trophy presentation in the display case/cabinet is a very nice touch. Congratulations.

:bounce:

But, there are a couple of the Rollies, and two of the PO's at least, and I'm fairly certain that at least one of the Pams have that look that a woman gets when they are feeling neglected. So, I am volunteering to help give your watches the attention and care they deserve. Please feel free to use my services at any time.

Sam, YOU ARE THE MAN!
Really an awesome collection and display. How in the world do you choose a watch in the morning?

I no longer feel guilty for my little collection (that I use to think was a sizable).

thanks for the comments folks .......... it still a work in progress .....ill try to get some pics from the few books i have and get-then on the top shelf.....

i came across one of my many military trinkets . leaving gift's ...this one ain't all warlike so it should look OK in the display . that bottle of 21 year old royal salute is still half full ...............
what do you think of the eagle statue in the display.......

I like "pure watches" a bit better but then I don't have any emotional bonds to the eagle like you do - and since it is your cupboard you have to like it, not me!

Just pray that I never visit you with an ice cream cone in my hand :)

OOHH DAAAYUUMM. When you bought P4GTRs watch and someone said they would ban you I see why. That IS a sickness. Nice job. I want a collection like that. On a side note if you have a nice UPO for sale in the 45 flavor let me know!!!! lol
