Legend Posted November 7, 2013 Report Posted November 7, 2013 Guys, Just curious, suppose you can only keep one rep in your collection, and have to forgo all the rest, which one would it be, and why? For me, it would have to be my PAM 057C from DSN. Much as I love the flashier ROOs, the dressy Franck Mullers, and even the other wearable-daily PAM models, I simply love the tobacco dial with the ETA2892 + SOPROD power reserve, all contained in a 44mm titanium case. How about you guys?
tomhorn Posted November 7, 2013 Report Posted November 7, 2013 Right now it's my franken 16014. Have a funny feeling that may change once I finish my 1016 and 5514 frankens ...
martijnp Posted November 7, 2013 Report Posted November 7, 2013 Difficult question mate! I guess it's one of these two
panerai153 Posted November 7, 2013 Report Posted November 7, 2013 Probably this one, doesn't get worn as much lately, too many others . Another reason, probably could never get close to my money spent if I decided to sell. 1
PeteM Posted November 7, 2013 Report Posted November 7, 2013 A while back I would probably of had some make or model in mind... But now my answer is ... 'The one on my wrist '
flyr Posted November 7, 2013 Report Posted November 7, 2013 More than likely this one, 45.5 UPO with sunnydale crystal. 1
docthor Posted November 7, 2013 Report Posted November 7, 2013 One should never say never especially when this one is me But most likely I'll never sell my 1675! Sent from my wooden drums using Tupperware 1
ceejay Posted November 7, 2013 Report Posted November 7, 2013 Yeah, my 1675 which is yet to be unveiled will be with me as long as it ticks...& tocks. I have bought 2 replacement movements for it
ubiquitous Posted November 7, 2013 Report Posted November 7, 2013 I've learned that it's not reasonable for me to say 'never'. But there are several that I have no intention of parting with....
lhooq Posted November 7, 2013 Report Posted November 7, 2013 My '57 Speedmaster franken, due to the acute difficulty of sourcing parts.
JoeyB Posted November 7, 2013 Report Posted November 7, 2013 My first build is a Rolex 6542, and it's been improved several times since. I almost wish I had never built it, or my 1675 cornino with the exclamation dial, as my 16710 - also improved several times - was my 'all' watch. All 3 are now gen style crystal and bezel mount. I really can't choose one of them. A half step behind is my 6204 Sub. I could sell any of the rest, but not these 4.
fraggle42 Posted November 7, 2013 Report Posted November 7, 2013 Only have one rep? What a horrible thought! 1
Mike on a bike Posted November 7, 2013 Report Posted November 7, 2013 I never say never thought so many times , off they went. Right now my 6538 but who knows a week from now.
PeteM Posted November 7, 2013 Report Posted November 7, 2013 My '57 Speedmaster franken, due to the acute difficulty of sourcing parts. Better acute than obtuse I say !!
lhooq Posted November 8, 2013 Report Posted November 8, 2013 Better acute than obtuse I say !! You have no right! 1
Legend Posted November 8, 2013 Author Report Posted November 8, 2013 I knew there would be many Rolexes. We also know who the flashier members are, hint: martijnp
PeteM Posted November 8, 2013 Report Posted November 8, 2013 You have no right! Why do you say that you tanned gent ? Is it cos I saw the sine!
martijnp Posted November 8, 2013 Report Posted November 8, 2013 I knew there would be many Rolexes. We also know who the flashier members are, hint: martijnp Haha I don't own a Rolex (shame on me?) Was between my Hublots or my Panerai 104 it was a tough decision but I stick to my Hublot(s). Definitely with that Donerix strap if you can't find the HBB your looking for
PeteM Posted November 8, 2013 Report Posted November 8, 2013 I certainly wouldnt let go of this one.....
jtiis Posted November 8, 2013 Report Posted November 8, 2013 Sorry, I already sold the rep I'd never sell. Already sourcing parts for the watch I'll never buy. 1
andreww Posted November 8, 2013 Report Posted November 8, 2013 I don't really sell my reps but if I had to keep only two it would be my very rare PAM192 and my Navitimer.
Nightwatch Posted November 9, 2013 Report Posted November 9, 2013 Just one....... it´s no fun. Just two would be a 16610 black sub and the panerai 212 flyback, 1950´s case; and just one DSSD for the beach, just one PAM 203 for dining with Lara Croft, just one PAM 193 for off-road-driving, just one AP V5 for diving, just one cheapo digital quartz Timex rep for Africa, a L&S Datograph for the Opera, a Daytona for the racing track (and a TAG Chrono backup), an IWC Ingenieur or Portuguese for the business meeting and just one Coke GMT for holidays on the Maledives ....................a Steelfish just for fun and ...... You all see where this is getting: You need just ONE for every occasion:) I´m happy again - with just ONE:) 1
Aero_Dave Posted November 9, 2013 Report Posted November 9, 2013 For me, it would probably be my Ploprof (if I ever get it back) because it's a nice design that you don't run into others wearing it very much. Dave...
