Getting all cozy with those Patek's, I like

 

[hurk]

Awesome collection!
Very classy.

How do you like the tourbillon?
I'm liking the jaegers a lot.

Surprised to see a pam in that collection.

Thanks, I really like the Tourbillon, but it only gets worn around the house. It's a bit difficult to stay under the radar with a tourbillon strapped to your wrist.

The JLC NSD and Pam 111N were just bought recently because they are just such great quality replicas.

The Noob V3 is actually my third Pam 111, I had a DOA H-Factory Pam 111M that had issues even after repair, and which eventually resulted in a refund, and a Toro Bravo Beginner 111 that had to be repaired, and was then flipped.

That's a lot of Pateks and VCs! I like!
I could not wear a watch that costs more than $10,000, just because being a fresh graduate would scream fake all over. One day, after I get a grown-up job, I'll buy Patek and VC reps. By then, they might have noob/ultimate/h-fac versions!

Very classy collection

Great collection! Thanks. Nice Patrimony Chrono.

Very nice collection.


The Nautilus 5711 is my favorite - I will get one one day....:wub:

I certainly hope they'll make more 1:1 ultimate dress watches, although the VC Patrimony Contemporaine in particular is quite well done. I also modded the Patek 3520D with a domed sapphire crystal, which makes it much more believable.

A quality crocodile or alligator strap also does wonders for even very affordable dress watch replicas.

A gentleman's collection.

dope

 

[machiavegli]

Nice collection! I have the same issue with tourbys and preferring to stay under the radar, sad because I would love to have one...

[boostin20]

Nice shots!

 

[thinkcooper]

honeybear - a man after my own heart. I'm drawn to classically styled white faced, clean lines, elegant pieces. Currently is search of a swiss VCO like yours, but those PPs are divine. If you're ever looking to flip any of them, ping me.

That is a collection which oozes class and sophistication, what beautiful pieces, they put my rag-tag band of ratty tool watches to shame!

However, being a rag-tag ratty tool myself, I could never pull off such nice dress watches.

I'd love a Tourby, mainly for the feat of engineering which is the movement. Are there any good 'sterile' ones available which would be a "genuine tourbillion movement' without being a rep of a £50k watch?

 

[Rubberj00]

Damn, bro! You classy motherfu***r

Amazing collection, some real beauties in there!

You need to get that JLC tourb premium AR'd though - it would enhance the look so much IMO, that blue crappy rep tint cheapens it against the gold IMO. The pateks are stunning though, may have to get one as a dress watch - which you recommend?

 

[armada26858]

which is your favorite comrade ...i think the Vacheron Constantin Patrimony Contemporaine is sweet as hell and the pam.

 

[adamweby]

nice watches! I am going to get some dress watches next. you have great taste!

 

[ressmeplz]

Nice collection mate
