I've got a vintage Rolex DateJust with a fluted bexel, jubilee bracelet and a blue stick dial. It used to be my father's, but when I turned 40, he gave it to me.
Since then, I've started building watches myself. Here's some of them...https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...ee051bb0c3.jpg |
I have a bit of a collection. Probably change what I am wearing every other day. This is today's piece.

Thought I was alone in my obsession with time......my collection now stands at 71 pieces: pocket watches, digital, battery, wind, self wind, whatever. Some are pricey but most are modestly priced and I buy what I find interesting. My favorite is a Timex Snoopy and the Red Baron my mom gave me for my fourth birthday in 1969- it still indeed keeps ticking- same for mom.

Here's a neat watch that recently came to market:

Autodromo also has some nice racing-inspired watches:

I've been a Tag fan for many years. It's my only watch besides a Pre railroad pocket watch.

I'm late to the party, here is my meager collection, 2 Casio Oceanus (Atomic clock radio and solar), Invicta something or other automatic I use for swimming and diving, and a Microsoft band, which I have been wearing lately for step counting, heart rate, etc...

I too have a love for fine timepieces, the precision and simplicity of Porsche Design are my favourites, as is my Boxster S, greatest sports car ever conceived!http://986forum.com/forums/uploads02...1496677213.jpg

I have more than a few. This is my current favorite, it's my Dad's vinyage 1969 Bulova Accutron vertical day/date I recently had restored. |

This one has a bit of history: My uncle, who served in the USAF, bought this watch in Germany in the early 1960s. He gave it to me for safekeeping when I was a kid. Its a special occasion watch for me. (currently my daily wear is iWatch. I also have a TAG).

@borz - super Porsche collection.
Really like the speedmasters and would like a vintage one or a SS Panerai to add to my limited collection Daily beater http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r...psvjimpbj0.jpg Day to Day business watch, have it a long time now and it never misses a beat. I really like it. http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r...psrttqdnph.jpg The big one - only comes out now and again. Like the fact that most people even those that think they know watches don't even comment on it. http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r...ps1pk3n3uv.jpg |
Can sometimes steal my eyes from the road, but this one is my favorite to wear on a twisty drive:
