Here's a thread I think the OP will enjoy:

(I knew there was a similar thread around here....took me awhile to find it)

That's good, man. I wish I could track down my old '03 GT to spend some quality time with it again!

I love watches, they are my weakness. I have a nice collection of Tags, Omegas, Panerai, IWC, Oakley, and others. I refuse to spend more than $30 on a pair of jeans or shorts but I've dropped $9k on a watch lol.

What IWC timepiece do you have? Sir you seem like you ball in watches and clearly have good taste, so the next question is do you have an AP or plan on getting one? What Pams do you have?

IWC is the Pilot, it is my only leather strap watch. Well Igot my first watch almost 10 years ago so I have been building a nice collection. I have the watches I wear everyday and I rarely wear my IWC since I am not a leatherband type of guy.

Hmm, I think I'll buy me a nice lambo before I get an AP watch

.

I have the PAM296, I saw it in NY and fellin love with it. I wish it didn't have the cyclops but the gun metal is what sold me.

Nice I really like the big pilots, also the Portuguese. You can get an AP in the 20's vs. a 200 lambo lol. But I know what you mean those and Patek's are incredible and always glorious to see.

I love watches. Here are some of mine.

My favorite is my Panerai. It's easy to switch straps which makes it versatile.

My Rolex GMT is a classic.

Breitling Crosswind. Breitling makes a great watch for the money.

Tag Monaco, Limited Edition Steve McQueen 75th Birthday watch. I don't like Tags, but this one was pretty unique and I got a great deal on it.

I also have a 53mm U-Boat Left Hook, but I don't have a pic right now. I rarely wear that one. It is almost too big. It's about the size of the clock Flavor Flav wears around his neck.

somehow panerai is loosing it's appeal to me. my watch to own for sure is the omega speedmaster 125 -

it's a HUGE and heavy watch. without the crown, it's about 42mm and with the crown its almost 45mm. and the weight with the metal bracelet is 183g. it's been stated that only 2000 where made.

the look of the watch was that appealing to me at first, but i think it grew on me. and after i read about the history of the watch, it just made this watch the one watch that i need to have.

that is a watch that is going to take me some time because i would have to drop around 2.5k for the watch, most likely it's got some wear and tear and dings and dents so i would most definitely spend about another 1k for restoration by sending it to omega.

so my next watch in the near future is probably going to be the Seiko SBDQ001.

diameter 40mm
thickness12.8mm
weight 94g

nice size and nice weight. and not too bad of a price.
