$10K is an incredible amount to start an INSANE watch collection. You can pick up some amazing watches for cheaper than you think... Tell me what you think of my collection in the comments, what would you include in yours? 😂

Great list, personally I’m going with 1. Tudor Pepsi gmt on nato strap (gmt, $3675) 2. Hamilton khaki field (beater/everyday, $575) 3. Longines heritage classic with a silver dial (dress, $2425) 4. Oris aquis New York harbor green (diver, $1850) 5. Junghans max bill chronoscope with blue dial (chronograph, $1413) And with my $152 remaining I will be purchasing seven Casio databank calculator watches.

@Eikenhorst 9 ай бұрын

I do love this list. You can get a G shock for 150 if that is your thing. With the Tudor I just feel that every watchmaker that has produced a dive watch has released that something that looks exactly like that (no GMT though), so it is not for me. The Junghans is a great dress watch as well. For a real unique chrono I would go for the 1972 Competition, and save 1000 on the Tudor and take the Sinn 857 UTC for the GMT watch.

Scrolling the comments and no one defending Grand Seiko?? calling them soulless is crazy, very few brands put as much care into building watches as they do, maybe directionless is fair but soulless is a horrendous take. (IMO, and I know this is yours)

@fiend7777 11 ай бұрын

After everyone saw that Nico owns a GS they realized that he respects the craftsmanship but hates the GS keyboard warriors and the way the company manages their product, which is fair. So he has to go back to trolling Grand Seiko.

@RhetoricWolf Ай бұрын

Yeah, calling it soulless was just a terribly unsubstantiated claim. In fact, they have an identity and soul. I think they put that into each product they develop.
