Let me know what y'all think. Hoping to get feedback. From left to right:

The one that started it all, Longines Flagship Heritage (2012).

Seiko Baby Tuna SUT421P (2024) - more a present for my wife since I don't really wear divers myself but this is a solid solar powered quartz.

TAG Heuer Monaco Gulf 2018 Special Edition - got it to commemorate a big professional milestone, saw it IRL once and knew it was the LHD for me. The orange pops like nothing else and you'd be surprised how quickly you get accustomed to the heft.

GADA? IWC Mark XX (Blue) on bracelet - talked myself out of one but then got this for a steal second hand and I can't stop wearing it.

Montblanc 1858 Geosphere 0 Oxygen - I live in the southern hemisphere and this is one of the few world timers that supports/displays that.

Have basically picked up one watch a year since 2020 (have retired and sold a couple) and still thinking on my next purchase, but that won't be for a while... what would be a solid Diver option? Would love to get your recommendations to complement this 5W collection
