Lee's Watch Thread for MM'ers of Impeccable Taste

[Ryan T]

So just a quick pick of my 'pitiful in comparison' collection. I ordered the watch box last week and it came today. I ordered the 10 watch box but they sent me the 12 watch box by mistake...I'm not complaining. Only 4 of these watches ever get worn, but I tossed the others in there to sorta make the box not look so empty until I can figure out/afford what other watches I want. Top left is my Tissot, which I love. I wear it almost exclusively as a dress watch and I love it. It's my wife's least favorite, but it's in my top 2. Beside that is a Pulsar my wife bought me about 6 years ago. It wasn't a terribly expensive watch but it is light, wears well, keeps excellent time and has generally served me very well. Beside that is the gold Elgin my dad bought me when I was in high school. Not sure why I was into gold watches then, but I haven't worn it in 15 years. I could barely get it over my hand today. On the end of the top row is a Dakota that cost a whopping $25, but it's the first watch I ever purchased for myself. Second row starts with the Seiko Automatic I just bought followed by the Citizen Chronograph. On the end is a Fossil watch that belonged to my wife's dad. After he passed away she gave it to me. I've never worn it, but I keep it around because it's important to her.



I'm not really sure where I want to go next. I'd like a black face, black leather strap dress watch to go with my grey and black suits. I've looked at a few Hamilton's that fit the bill for that. I'd also like a metal band chronograph watch as well. I would really like to add a Tag Heuer or something in that price range/quality level at some point, but no plans for that in the immediate future.
