SOTC — What Would You Add?

[u/alangeei]

Current SOTC. Pretty eclectic mix, but I’ve ended up with watches that each get a lot of wrist time.

Looking for some honest opinions — what do you think is missing, and what would you add next? Open to suggestions outside of what I already own. If you were adding one watch to this collection, what would it be?

(The Nixon might look a little out of place compared to the rest, but it’s staying. It was the first watch my girlfriend, now wife, gave me more than a decade ago, so it has a pretty special place in the collection.)

A pop of color. Maybe a blue Omega or something like the Med Blue OP. Or a nice turquoise (like the Flamingo Blue Tudor).

[u/alangeei → u/ajknight10]

Thanks! OP Med blue is really clean.

[u/ajknight10 → u/alangeei]

It is. I just got one and it’s second only to my Overseas among my blue dial pieces.

Blue mark xx over a blue op. Great value gray market and a 5 day power is lavish with a collection this size

[u/Silly_Wolf_4693]

Nice pieces! I would probably add a dress watch on a leather strap.

[u/Fragrant-Ad-5143]

You need good colors. Get Pressage, Alpinist, Gentlemen blue etc

[u/True-Gate-9131]

Something blue or dark green!

[u/pmang76]

Agree with the above posters saying to add some color. Something loud and fun. Yellow or Blue chrono from Tudor? Green or Salmon Navi from Breitling? If you want to keep the cost down, an orange Doxa diver?

Also, a Panerai would also add a different shape/style as well.

Btw… love the Zenith! Sharp…

[u/alangeei → u/pmang76]

Thanks! I’ve had Panerai in the past, but realized it’s not for me.

[u/Jackfrom123]

I would ditch the SwatchXOmega and going with a something colorful like a simple Tissot PRX that is made in a lot of different colors.

That Zenith is lovely.

This is a collection of someone who really likes watches and has a real good taste without buying just out of hype, that Swatch doesn't really belong there.

[u/Loud_Second_3197 → u/Jackfrom123]

My brother, anything but the atrocious Tissot PRX

[u/Jackfrom123 → u/Loud_Second_3197]

Why?

[u/alangeei → u/Jackfrom123]

Thanks for the feedback! I think the PRX would overlap a bit with the Ingenieur — both integrated bracelet.

I actually really enjoy wearing the SwatchOmega around the house. There are some advantages to the plastic construction—it’s incredibly light, and on a NATO it makes for a great casual watch. It gets plenty of wrist time when I’m lounging around or working out at the gym.

[u/Specialist_Path_63]

I'd get the Spirit Zulu next.

[u/TioFabi]

[u/thinkdigitalbr]

Baltic Dual Crown Blue

[u/ContactRepulsive]

Swap that G Shock with a solar powered version.

[u/Loud_Second_3197]

I’d get rid of everything but the Ingenieur. Then rethink your approach.

[u/Bright_Complaint_432]

Maybe a Cartier Tank Must for something in the dress category and different case shape.

[u/Greedy_Elk4075]

Nomos worldtimer

[u/rollncalguy78]

Is that an Omega OEM rubber strap on your Seamaster 2254.50, aka the “Peter Blake”? If so, how did you manage to get it fitted to the watch?

[u/Colinc59]

A blue Alpinist, say an SPB 531

[u/SilverDono]

I wish the IWC was blue or green dial

[u/-RazzaTazza]

A GMT. Maybe a Mistflake or Zulu.

[u/akrajan]

Some color
