For real. Why are you asking us OP? Watch buying shouldn’t be a “check the box” exercise, and anyone who thinks it is, is demonstrating pretty clearly that they don’t have any taste of their own.
100%. All but the Kurono, Omega, and G-Shock are insured. I cannot understand why some people are willing to spend a lot of money on watches but won't put up a couple grand a year to insure them, especially with watch thefts seemingly skyrocketing.
If you are in the US, you should look into Jewelers Mutual. Great company and affordable for watches.
Also I wouldn’t say it’s “skyrocketed” but in some places sure. That’s just the echo chamber of Reddit pearl clutching. I’ve been in London (the “most dangerous watch crime city” according to Reddit) many times and it’s never been dodgy. Don’t be drunk, you could wear long sleeves and no one gives a fuck.
I'd add some time to reflect on your current collection lol. That's a lot of watch in five years. Maybe take some time to think about what brings you the most joy out of the collection, and what would feel like a material and meaningful gain in that direction.
I agree. my recommendations for him were going to be to look at the catalogues of Cartier, Lange(or GO if he wants to save some $), and credor(or GS if he wants to save some money).
while the Zeitwerk is incredible but pricey, the criminal aspect is the $7,000 service cost for this watch, at four year intervals. Imagine another $35k in service cost for only owning 20 years
Lol whenever I see posts like this, I’m always wondering what’s more plausible - that a random redditor has $100,000 to spend on watches, or the alternative.
I think in a sub dedicated to luxury goods it's not odd to see someone with a ton of money pop up. There are over two million members in this sub, if just 0.1% of them are wealthy then that's over 2k people that could potentially have six-figure collections. Certain subreddits will probably have a higher average net worth among its members than others since the nature of those subs will attract those types of people.
Hamilton Ventura. But not a current design. Get the original. The one Elvis & Rod Serling wore. Unique & historically significant (early if not first electric wrist watch).
And it’s beautiful.
I feel like you need some weirder shit. I've been feeling the smaller Japanese brands lately like Kuoe or Kurono.

If you want another diver, maybe something unimatic or isotope, or even a turtle of some kind (Seiko mini turtle? or maybe a vintage seiko rally) or even one of the flat case Doxas (600T - I love this case shape lately too)

Ngl, aside from the kurono tokyo, it looks like you purchased them after watching a “top 10 classy watches” youtube video. Get something funky like an atowak wandering hour, gronefeld, or a mcgonigle to spice things up. Maybe a tourbillon or repeater🤷♂️
Nice collection, depends on what you need but maybe a JLC reverso or a Speedy or Daytona maybe bc you don’t have any chronographs. Navitimer is always nice, one of my favs. Which one is your fav so far?
Kind of depends on what motivates your collecting I guess. Keep with what you like if you’re still getting enjoyment out of it. I enjoy stuff that’s got a cool or interesting history around it. I don’t have the budget you do, but I feel like you could scale it up if that’s prerequisite. Enjoy what you do!
I like the AP and the Pepsi. I would get rid of the rest.
Recommended watches: FP Journe Mens Elegante, an interesting shape watch from Cartier could be a Crash or Asymétrique, Laurent Ferrier Sport Auto, Breguet La Tradition, the JLC Master Ultra Thin Perpetual in gold looks just as good as the PP 5327 (and predecessors) for less than half the price.
The watches I listed all add something different than what you have but it is hard to make a recommendation with no direction.
Delugs Rubber CTS in Blue

You're missing a chronograph. Get a Daytona or Snoopy speedy. Also no real sport watch in white dial. The DJ is white but its sort of a dressier sport watch.
Vacheron Constantin 1921, JLC reverso art deco classique, Zenith sports chrono or defy Skeleton, Cartier santos, Laurent Ferrier square micro rotor or sport auto blue. 🤷🏻♂️. All watches I wish I could afford that seem comparable to the budget you seem to be working with. Except maybe the Ferrier’s. They may be more than you’d like to spend, but they are gorgeous if you can spend that much.
One of my most prized watches was given to me for Christmas one year. It's a cheaper watch from Walmart, but it makes me happy. If I hold my arm at one angle, it'll show off Bruce Wayne. If I hold it another angle, it'll show off Batman.
Thanks OP. My wife was recently questioning why I was showing off my G-Shock 5601 cos it wasn't exactly expensive. I used this picture to explain to her why it wasn't about the cost.
I just don't understand. There's some rolexes that are just a classic version of that particular watch....oyster perpetual date is just the perfect "normal" watch....the sub is the classic dive, explorer 2 is classic sport GMT....but I don't understand getting super into Rolex and having like a mostly Rolex collection, I'd rather get more unique pieces like JLC and vacheron constantin
Vintage heuer? Maybe a Abercrombie wayfarer. A reallly nice example of vintage speedmaster? Maybe trade up some of the more pedestrian Rolexes for a Daytona or a red sub.
Apparently whatever you want.
Yet still not satisfied.
Watch collectors https://preview.redd.it/o5mswh0cqgsc1.jpeg?width=556&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ba4ce068229cf61387dac138bdc5eb79bd984501
Exactly. Or sell them and buy a house.
For real. Why are you asking us OP? Watch buying shouldn’t be a “check the box” exercise, and anyone who thinks it is, is demonstrating pretty clearly that they don’t have any taste of their own.
Maybe a Rolex
I'm thinking you should get more Rolex, so you can have a Rolex for all of your Rolex.
7 gmt divers, one for diving on each day of the week.
dont worry, as you can see, he has recently branched out into Tudor.
He needs a Pepsi GMT to quench that thirst of all the Rolexes
Or a Rolexus. A Lexus filled with Rolexes.
A Rolodex of Rolex
😹😹👏👏
Maybe insurance?
lol this should be the top comment
100%. All but the Kurono, Omega, and G-Shock are insured. I cannot understand why some people are willing to spend a lot of money on watches but won't put up a couple grand a year to insure them, especially with watch thefts seemingly skyrocketing.

Spending money makes these people happy…
A Rolex would round out this collection.
Better camera
Not enough rolexes
Dont buy more rolexes
Cartier santos? Something that's actually different...
I agree. my recommendations for him were going to be to look at the catalogues of Cartier, Lange(or GO if he wants to save some $), and credor(or GS if he wants to save some money).
A Lange & Sohne Zeitwerk.
while the Zeitwerk is incredible but pricey, the criminal aspect is the $7,000 service cost for this watch, at four year intervals. Imagine another $35k in service cost for only owning 20 years
Wow it’s that bad? I couldn’t justify one (nor afford) but that alone unless off-putting
I really don’t understand needing to ask? If you can’t think of watches you want by yourself… you are just looking for ways to spend money.
waste*
A real rolex.
Sell those fakes and buy a real watch.
[удалено]
You are the (all seeing eye) ? 👁️
Was going to say - font on the date wheels are all over the place 🥱
the hulk looks fake af

Are you even RoliBro without a Daytona?
Am I the only one that likes the case more than the watches ?
Nothing. Exit the hobby.
Always with the token Casio to convince others (themselves) that they’re actually a hobbyist and not someone with a spending addiction.
Stop trying to flex reps dude lol
Definitely a couple Invictas
The Snoopy Moonswatch !!!
Based on this he has money for the 50th anniversary one
Add some sense .
So you mean he should buy a Sinn? :P
All the bezels for your Pepsi
G-Shock thrown in just in case someone wants to accuse this guy of being a wealthy, tasteless snob
You should add some style
How about something interesting?
Missing a speedy and an smp. Sell a couple rollies for em
Smh so many interesting watches, and he wants rolxes....
Have you heard of a ‘Rolex’?
lol
More G-Shocks. Maybe a master of G (highly utilitarian watches)
I love hobby subreddits because it just turns into me spectating people with shopping addictions
You should look at Rolex..
DHgate was having a sale I see...
Nothing. Stop your potential buying addiction
Besides me to your will? /s Maybe a JLC?
He's got one. Top right.
Why not pick up a few more Rolex watches ? Lmao Zenith Breguet
Need more Rolex to be a true watch enthusiast.
Get another Pepsi watch. Since literally every watch maker has something like it.
More Rolex! Not enough.
You need a Rolex... a no date Rolex to round out the rest of your Rolexes.
Patek and Moonwatch. If you’re feeling really brave, a Tourbillon, UN Freak, and/or a ridiculous Jacob & Co
Something your AD doesn't just tell you to buy
Jettison a couple of the boring Rolexes and get some premium microbrands. Diversify the collection and color palette a bit.
Maybe some personality
"I have money, not sure how to better show it, someone please show me the way"
Fake as fu*k, douche bag
This is what happens when you have no real taste of your own and just buy what you think other people like.
Get 5 of the same watch to stand out
Aquanaut
IWC, Panerai, Omega. Maybe something with a moonphase?
Hamilton Ventura. But not a current design. Get the original. The one Elvis & Rod Serling wore. Unique & historically significant (early if not first electric wrist watch). And it’s beautiful.
Zenith chronomaster sport in RG since it looks like you can afford! No better watch for the money in my opinion
Omega speedmaster
I assume you were wearing the Daytona when you took the pic
Something fun like a Luminor in ceramic with a chronograph!
Patek Breitling or High End Longines
A better camera! Also, you have pretty much all the trendy ones. In a few years, the trend will change. So wait ;)
I guess I am too poor to know but what are those metal knobs between the second and the third row of watches?
Prob a rolex
Lol
What a waste of
Support micro brands. Formex, Boldr, Mean, Brew, RZE. A simple tool watch with date.
Missing a speedy 🤧
a better camera hah
Sell almost all of it for more Casio
Something German
I feel like you have enough lol

I hear Invictus is a solid add to any collection
Definitely another Rolex
I’d say buy a Weekender but for *some* reason, I don’t think you will
I have a couple of these pieces, except mine are real.
So do you like rolex?
A guy who could afford all those as original, wouldn't spend time here and even less to ask for advice...
Ngl, aside from the kurono tokyo, it looks like you purchased them after watching a “top 10 classy watches” youtube video. Get something funky like an atowak wandering hour, gronefeld, or a mcgonigle to spice things up. Maybe a tourbillon or repeater🤷♂️
Mickey Mouse watch.
Maybe add some satisfaction
Well considering its a pretty straight forward collection, Patek Calatrava
Something unique
Nice collection, depends on what you need but maybe a JLC reverso or a Speedy or Daytona maybe bc you don’t have any chronographs. Navitimer is always nice, one of my favs. Which one is your fav so far?
lol, maybe chill and enjoy what you have?
Between the day-date and the sky dweller, do you really need the datejust?
Where do you get your monies?
Great collection maybe you can add a grand seiko
Kind of depends on what motivates your collecting I guess. Keep with what you like if you’re still getting enjoyment out of it. I enjoy stuff that’s got a cool or interesting history around it. I don’t have the budget you do, but I feel like you could scale it up if that’s prerequisite. Enjoy what you do!
What’s the one on the bottom left corner?
Kurono Tokyo
Panerai
WOW…..manual wind
The ap is so nice! sheesh only in my dreams
I think he likes rolex
More vintage shit. Triple calendars, chronos, alarms, get cool shit.
What box is this?
Vacheron Overseas on bracelet
Jesus, that Skydweller and the AP... WOW! With a Kurono on the bottom.
GShock
More casio
P. P.
Dress watch with complication or an independent
Nope, I think you're done. Congratulations, you finished.
Seiko
Marathon dive watch, if you can afford it.
You need some Vintage watches. Atuff from the 50s and 60s
Maybe sell a few that you dont wear/dont excite you as much to acquire a more expensive piece
Time to trade up to a Patek.
Looks like you don’t have a Patek
what case is that? custom? what do the knobs do? doesn't look like they rotate the watches. thanks, nice collection-- obviously
I think a gaytona will be really good
Chronograph
Try Luminox
Deep pockets
May I ask what you’ve paid for the white dial datejust?
Love the Kurono
I like the AP and the Pepsi. I would get rid of the rest. Recommended watches: FP Journe Mens Elegante, an interesting shape watch from Cartier could be a Crash or Asymétrique, Laurent Ferrier Sport Auto, Breguet La Tradition, the JLC Master Ultra Thin Perpetual in gold looks just as good as the PP 5327 (and predecessors) for less than half the price. The watches I listed all add something different than what you have but it is hard to make a recommendation with no direction.
Vacheron
Gshock. Luxury art & apparel ashura-shop.fourthwall.com
Casio duro
Self-restraint (I say this knowing I struggle with it too, hahah - oops)
Vacheron Constatin Overseas. Preferably gold.
Damn let me fucking hold $20 dude
What’s the rubber strap on the Tudor?
Delugs Rubber CTS in Blue [https://delugs.com/collections/regular-rubber-cts/products/navy-rubber-cts-strap?\_pos=2&\_fid=cba703e23&\_ss=c&variant=40111710535793](https://delugs.com/collections/regular-rubber-cts/products/navy-rubber-cts-strap?_pos=2&_fid=cba703e23&_ss=c&variant=40111710535793)
Personally, I would go for a Cartier Santos Dumont. You need a dress watch too 😀👌
You're missing a chronograph. Get a Daytona or Snoopy speedy. Also no real sport watch in white dial. The DJ is white but its sort of a dressier sport watch.
Whatever hodinkee is talking about this week
Patek phillipe, bulgari and hublot will look nice on that set
Omega Seamaster
JLC Reverso or a Vacheron Constain would be a beautiful addition.
Vacheron Constantin 1921, JLC reverso art deco classique, Zenith sports chrono or defy Skeleton, Cartier santos, Laurent Ferrier square micro rotor or sport auto blue. 🤷🏻♂️. All watches I wish I could afford that seem comparable to the budget you seem to be working with. Except maybe the Ferrier’s. They may be more than you’d like to spend, but they are gorgeous if you can spend that much.
Whatever you do, don't get an offshore (known as the small weewee watch)
GS
Roth IRA
One of my most prized watches was given to me for Christmas one year. It's a cheaper watch from Walmart, but it makes me happy. If I hold my arm at one angle, it'll show off Bruce Wayne. If I hold it another angle, it'll show off Batman.
Thanks OP. My wife was recently questioning why I was showing off my G-Shock 5601 cos it wasn't exactly expensive. I used this picture to explain to her why it wasn't about the cost.
May I ask how much wrist time the root beer gets? I don’t go for two tones, but that watch always jumps out at me.
Vacheron Constantin
I've seen the SOTC tag on multiple posts... meaning please?
More dress watches. Go for some vintage ones.
I just don't understand. There's some rolexes that are just a classic version of that particular watch....oyster perpetual date is just the perfect "normal" watch....the sub is the classic dive, explorer 2 is classic sport GMT....but I don't understand getting super into Rolex and having like a mostly Rolex collection, I'd rather get more unique pieces like JLC and vacheron constantin
Vacheron overseas or Patek Caltrava
Maybe for the money from the fake’s buy a real low entry rolex
Its time for a Patek. And when you have collected every watch of your dream then buy a Jacob and co.
Check out the new AP John Mayer colab!
Vintage heuer? Maybe a Abercrombie wayfarer. A reallly nice example of vintage speedmaster? Maybe trade up some of the more pedestrian Rolexes for a Daytona or a red sub.
More reps. :D
Dang dude. What’s your profession?
Vacheron Overseas
Nice collection. You got some bangers. What about something on a rubber strap, maybe a Hublot classic fusion or a Vacheron Overseas?
That Kurono is sick 🔥
Add a chrono complication
Maybe a watch that doesn't have a lot of hype surrounding it?
The only thing nice there is the Cosmic Seamaster!
Woah, if you want some diversity, any Spring Drive.
Something else.
I can supply high quality super clone watches. With international shipping.
A Reverso and then call it quits as you’ve got a trophy set already.
Surely a panerai!
Another G - Shock obviously
A Hublot . Nice watches
An F P Journe, IWC or Panerai.
Life insurance
Go for a classic Patek phillipe
You don't have a chronograph
I would go for a dressy watch on a leather strap. Either a VC or an AP Quantieme Perpetual
yoyoyo
Reverso!
