Cats Posted February 6, 2011 Report Posted February 6, 2011 WOW great collection TXcollector. Personally i love the PAM collection Apparently your not i big fan of Rolex Carpe Diem Cats
StormTooper4 Posted February 6, 2011 Report Posted February 6, 2011 GULP Thats a very nice collection
krpster Posted February 6, 2011 Report Posted February 6, 2011 Nice collection txc! No Breits though What kind of box is that you are using? Do you actually have 5 of the same?
Utheman Posted February 6, 2011 Report Posted February 6, 2011 Wow! Awesome collection. One for everyday of the month.
hooky Posted February 6, 2011 Report Posted February 6, 2011 TX, this is one of the nicest collections I have ever seen. Great taste. I count many Panerai models, so for not yet a Panerai vintage (brandless hommage) yet?
maxman Posted February 6, 2011 Report Posted February 6, 2011 WOW,beautiful collection. That looks to be a very nice watch box(s) do you mind telling us where you got It?thanks.
mactower Posted February 6, 2011 Report Posted February 6, 2011 WOW,beautiful collection. That looks to be a very nice watch box(s) do you mind telling us where you got It?thanks. +1 on where you got those sweet watch boxes. Awesome collection by the way.
txcollector Posted February 6, 2011 Author Report Posted February 6, 2011 Thanks for the comments. I may have a problem with addiction though Apparently your not i big fan of Rolex I'm still looking for the allusive SSD and I may get the 41mm DateJust WG. Regular Rolex is just kind of too small for me. Nice collection txc! No Breits though What kind of box is that you are using? Do you actually have 5 of the same? I just have one box, 5 pics. It's a Rainer. Breits: I'm not really into them. I count many Panerai models, so for not yet a Panerai vintage (brandless hommage) yet? I'm not attracted to vintage either. I can't really see the lure. I prefer my watches brand new and scratch free. WOW,beautiful collection. That looks to be a very nice watch box(s) do you mind telling us where you got It?thanks. Got the box from another member. Rainer is a guy in Europe that makes them. Just Google Rainer Watch Box and you will see hits all over the watch community.
ingenieur Posted March 9, 2011 Report Posted March 9, 2011 wow nice collection great pictures as well
calatrava Posted March 9, 2011 Report Posted March 9, 2011 The classics like the Patek Nautilus, Vacheron Constantin Overseas, Audemars Piguet Royal Oak, and IWC Ingenieur particularly speak to me. In fact, I have placed an order with Hont for a Patek Nautiulus and Vacheron Overseas, and I'm anxiously awaiting them. Since you're clearly a fan of Panerais, and have extensive experience with them, is there a particular Panerai rep which is a standout in terms of quality of build?
txcollector Posted March 9, 2011 Author Report Posted March 9, 2011 Since you're clearly a fan of Panerais, and have extensive experience with them, is there a particular Panerai rep which is a standout in terms of quality of build? thanks. There are 4 that stand out right now: - 005K (virtually indistinguishable from the gen). Requires very few and simple mods - 288 (with the croc strap is also almost impossible to see differences with the gen. The chrono pushers a slightly off position because of the 7750 but mostly seen on pics) - 212 (a rarity in reps because it's an open caseback. The only issue I noticed is the missing micro-adjuster which can be added like we do with the Hublots) - The new 7753 daylights. No mods needed
gran Posted March 9, 2011 Report Posted March 9, 2011 Excellent high quality collection indeed Greetings Gunnar
Guest jsuperman17 Posted March 9, 2011 Report Posted March 9, 2011 that's a sick collection! i need an ap in my collection but the sec @ 12 is too big of risk and too big of a watch! im surprised you dont have a roo in there.. im assuming you dont like any watch under 42mm huh?

ROO, Royal Oak Offshore? yes, first pic top row left, next to the RO. I don't like smaller watches but I have a few that have presence (SSD - not shown, Patek Nautilus, Tag Link)
txcollector Posted March 10, 2011 Author Report Posted March 10, 2011 These two were added after the photoshoot.
esco Posted March 10, 2011 Report Posted March 10, 2011 Love the ingy, don't see too many of those around
PeteM Posted March 10, 2011 Report Posted March 10, 2011 Great share mate... I have a few of Rainers cases myself...I simply love them.... I keep wanting to get a couple of OP plaques made up for them ...in the meantime I just have the OP logo on the lids... I have 3 sixers but my favourite is the oner box as its the high gloss black, though i never use it !!!....I wish he would do the larger the same finish.... I think its fantastic that you put all those horrible watches in those pics just to make the PAMs look even better !!!!!! ;)
