My Core Four:

 

I was an Apple Watch guy until 2020, when I noticed an Longines DolceVita on a friend. I have owned as many as 8/9 watches including Orient, Christopher Ward, etc but these four are all I need - for now…

  1. Tudor Black Bay 58 39mm - Bought this during my honeymoon and honestly, if I could only have 1 watch, it may be the BB58. The fit, looks, durability just work on in almost any occasion.

  2. Zenith Chronomaster Original 38mm (El Primero) - This had been my grail since I dove into this hobby years ago , but needed a milestone big enough to justify this purchase. This was a gift to myself for becoming a father. This is the perfect sized Chrono for me and the tri color dial is perfect - I will say the lume is not great, and it is not the most legible.

  3. Longines Spirit 37mm - This was my first big watch purchase after getting a big promotion at work. Also wore this on my wedding day. Currently my daily driver, and will always be in my collection.

  4. Hamilton Boulton Quartz Large - Gifted this by my wife after a BJJ belt promotion. This is a killer watch, but in all honesty, it does not get a ton of wrist time, and I tend to gravitate more to the longines/zenith in business casual situations. This will always be in my collection, but the JLC reverso duoface may take its place in the rotation down the road due to it being 2 dress watches + GMT. If you were to swap out the Hamilton, what would you choose to round out this collection?

Collector Description:

Thought I would do a collection update.


Rolex Explorer 40

This is my most recent acquisition. It was purchased for a work milestone. Loving it so far and it currently takes up 99% of my wrist time. I was considering a titanium IWC mark xx but opted for this in the end. Had avoided rolex for almost 10 years in the hobby but I see the reason people love them.

Zenith El Primero Chronomaster

I had purchased a speedy when I got admitted as a lawyer but stupidly sold it. I acquired this to replace it. Was a one-watch owner, owned by a former watchmaker from the Rolex SC.

JLC Reverso

Gift from my wife for our engagement. Probably my favourite. Gets worn less now but gets busted out for special occassions.

Seiko SPB 143

This was a gift for my 30th. Has travelled many places as my companion on many treks, hikes and dives. Great watch to grab for the beach. I think the 62MAS is the perfect dive watch design.

Citizen Promaster

Just a bit of fun and a lume dial - whats not to love.

Whats next?

I think a gold dress watch, PP, VC or JLC ultra thin or an ALS.

What would you get next and why?

3 Watches - Tudor (33%) / Seiko (33%) / Dennison (33%) Collection Review by A.I. WatchMetrics

Overall Collection Rating: 7.9/10

Collection Summary

This collection offers a mix of vintage-inspired, artistic, and functional designs, reflecting varied tastes. The Tudor Black Bay 54 anchors the collection with its heritage-driven dive watch design, while the Seiko SilverWave Cockpit brings a retro, cockpit-inspired aesthetic and functional simplicity. The Dennison Natural Stone Tiger Eye adds a bold artistic flair with its unique stone dial and gold-toned case.

The collection’s main strength lies in its aesthetic variety, but it lacks depth in complications and technical diversity. Additionally, it leans more toward casual and artistic styles, with limited representation of high horology or formal versatility.

Strengths:

  • Aesthetic diversity across vintage, artistic, and utilitarian styles.

  • Unique dial craftsmanship with the Dennison’s natural stone Tiger Eye.

  • Strong heritage representation with the Tudor Black Bay 54.

Potential Improvements:

  • Introduce more complications or advanced movements for added technical appeal.

  • Add a more formal or dress-oriented piece to improve versatility.

  • Expand material diversity to include precious metals or innovative finishes.

  2. History & Innovation (10% Weight): 7.8/10
    The Tudor Black Bay 54 brings significant heritage and innovation in dive watches. Seiko’s legacy in cockpit-inspired designs adds historical depth. Dennison contributes artistic value but lacks horological impact.

  3. Rarity (10% Weight): 7.0/10
    The Black Bay 54 is a production model but highly desirable, while the other watches lack notable rarity or exclusivity, aside from the unique nature of Dennison’s natural stone dials.

  4. Material (10% Weight): 7.5/10
    The Tudor’s stainless steel and the Dennison’s use of natural stone elevate the material depth. However, the Seiko’s basic materials limit this score.

  5. Movement (10% Weight): 7.5/10
    The Tudor’s automatic movement adds technical depth, but the collection is dominated by quartz watches, limiting mechanical variety.

  6. Versatility (10% Weight): 8.0/10
    The collection covers casual and artistic occasions well, but it lacks a true formal or dress option.

  7. Complications (10% Weight): 6.8/10
    Basic functionality across the collection, with no standout complications like GMTs or chronographs.

  8. Functions (10% Weight): 7.3/10Tudor: 200m water resistance, reliable automatic movement.
    Seiko: Functional quartz accuracy with cockpit-inspired readability.
    Dennison: Basic quartz movement with a focus on aesthetic appeal.

  9. Dials & Design (10% Weight): 8.5/10

  10. Cohesiveness (10% Weight): 7.5/10
    The collection demonstrates aesthetic variety but lacks a unifying theme or clear focus on horological depth.

Collector Description:

I have never understood the whole Stainless Steel attraction… and it’s even more nonsensical when they start selling for more than Precious Metal..
but those who are happiest in this hobby are those who ignore hype and just buy what they like… Rolex is so much more than GMTs and Submariners..


1. Daydate40 - in Yellow Gold, it’s a bit ostentatious, and on the flashy side, but with this piece, it’s almost the point

2. The GMT rootbeer - because in full RG, it might just be the most beautiful piece Rolex have ever made-produced..

3. The Sky-Dweller - because it’s an annual Calendar with Dual Timezone functionality… woefully under appreciated for the achievement in watchmaking it truly is.. and the Rhodium dial with RG is just 🔥🔥
And the oysterflex is actually better than I would have expected.

3. The Daytona… because you need a Daytona.. but look at the difference in “Everose” compared to the GMT and SkyD … I’m guessing that there was less copper in that recipe..
5. The DateJust41 .. I still think that the Datejustvis the quintessential Rolex, not the Submariner… and the 41 has nearly perfect proportions … provided it has. A fluted bezel and Jubilee bracelet …😉

    Strong avant-garde focus limits suitability for formal or traditional settings, but robust designs cater well to casual and functional use.

    While the collection includes tourbillons and skeletonized movements, the overall complication variety is limited, with few practical features like chronographs or GMTs.

  8. Functions (10% Weight): 8.5/10
    Robust water resistance, luminous hands, and practical elements enhance the collection's usability, though broader features like alarms or chronographs could add depth.

  9. Dials & Design (10% Weight): 9.0/10
    The standout designs across skeletonized, space-inspired, and multi-layered dials make this collection visually captivating.

  10. Cohesiveness (10% Weight): 8.5/10
    Unified by a bold, avant-garde aesthetic and Nubeo's innovative design language, the collection reflects a strong thematic focus, with minimal outliers.

Guess you could say I’m a sucker for black faced watches with no date windows. I have my eyes on a Tudor Monochrome or Longines Legend Diver as my next addition.

 

-Tag Heuer Carrera - grew up around cars and racing. My dad has had a Ferrari F1 poster in the basement with the Heuer logo on it for as long as I can remember and I always wanted one. Didn’t want to go that vintage so this is the next best thing.

 

-Rolex Explorer - always loved the no date sub as a kid but as I got older the less popular, more understated Explorer just grew on me.

The combination of manual and automatic movements adds mechanical variety, while both watches maintain timeless designs rooted in their respective histories.

Breakdown by Watch Collection Metrics

Brand (10%): 9.5/10
Rolex and Tag Heuer are globally recognized brands, with Rolex offering unmatched prestige and Tag Heuer excelling in motorsport heritage.

History & Innovation (10%): 9.5/10
Both watches have significant historical importance: the Explorer as a field watch tied to Everest, and the Carrera as a motorsport chronograph icon.

Rarity (10%): 8.5/10
The Carrera re-edition is more collectible due to limited production, while the Explorer remains a staple in Rolex’s lineup, though no less iconic.

Material (10%): 9.0/10
High-grade stainless steel is used for both watches, with excellent finishing and durability.

Movement (10%): 9.2/10
The manually wound Lemania 1873 in the Carrera and Rolex’s in-house automatic caliber 3230 both deliver reliable, high-performance timekeeping.

Versatility (10%): 9.0/10
The Explorer offers more versatility with its rugged and practical design, while the Carrera excels in formal and racing-inspired settings.

Complications (10%): 8.5/10
The Carrera offers a chronograph function, while the Explorer provides a straightforward, time-only design. Both lack additional features like a date.

Functions (10%): 8.8/10
The Explorer’s robust build and water resistance make it highly functional, while the Carrera’s chronograph is ideal for timing events but less robust for extreme environments.

Dials & Design (10%): 9.5/10
Both watches feature timeless and legible designs: the Carrera with its minimalist chronograph dial and the Explorer with its iconic 3-6-9 layout.

Cohesiveness (10%): 8.8/10
The collection is cohesive in its focus on historically significant and versatile watches, though it leans more toward functionality than diversity.

Collection Strengths and Potential Ways for Improvement

Strengths:

A strong representation of motorsport and exploration heritage.

Excellent mechanical diversity with a manual chronograph and an automatic field watch.

Potential Improvements:

Adding a dress watch could enhance the collection’s versatility.

Introducing a watch with a GMT or other complications would add functional diversity.
