Here's mine. Same watch but with my two carries. The watch is a Breitling Colt along with my Colt Mustang Series 80 and Smith Model 60 .357.
Very nice! I have always wanted a Breitling Colt.
If I buy the Timex will you throw the Jimenez in? For some reason I've wanted one of them lately.Ha! I'll do better yet. How about a Timex with a dead battery and a 9mm paper weight!
When I was in my teens and 20s I lusted after an all stainless Submariner. But once I saw the Explorer 2 that all changed. I love the brushed /satin looking finish and white face. And you're right about the Big Bang and it's presence. If I were big money watch shopping I probably wouldn't buy one but I damn sure wouldn't turn one down. They are really bad ass!
I'd settle for a nice Seamaster though.
I used to lust after stainless Subs, GMTs etc. I have been fortunate enough to have owned many Rolexes, and have gone through them and other high end watches like guns to find what I truly like and I always come back to vintage Rolex. Recently I found myself with a $20k budget for a new watch and despite the several yellow gold Submariners/GMTs, Audemars, Pateks, Vacherons etc.. I always go back to stainless vintage Rolex. I just like them the best, my favorite being a 1675 GMTs and 1680 Submariners.
Yeah, I'm not a big fan for yellow gold. The two tone Subs look plenty good but I prefer all stainless. Or what, platinum maybe?
But seriously, I like the satin/brushed more subdued look. I was looking at buying a Russian Vostock on ebay last year. They're cheap and have a good service rep. Plus, most are automatic movements. But I saw the Invicta I posted earlier and went with that. I really dig an all metal black watch. Chase Durer has one called the UDT Underwater Demolitions Team that is really nice. I just don't have the funds for that right now.
