My 1st row, is Swiss watches only (from R to L):

1: Omega Seamaster 300 NTTD 007 on Ti: I love this was for subtlety. You low-key feel like James bonds because you have one of the most expensive seamasters on but it's so lokey that really no one is going to recognize it out and about.

2: This a Z series 116200 36mm Roulette Date, Concentric Dial Rolex Datejust. It's pretty hard to find it seems. I like it cause it an explorer mixed with a datejust with the cherry on top being the roulette date wheel.

3: Omega Speedmaster moonwatch 3861 hesalite: I love love love this watch. It's perfectly balanced on wrist, with the new bracelet, it lowkey gives me confidence just by the way the watch fits me. This also the only watch in my collection that is constantly recognized. I think this is the most well kno we watch in the world next to the Rplex sub.

4: Carter tank Must XL: I kind of got this because I wanted an iconic cartier. I think the tank is more recognizable and Iconic than the santos. I also consider this a good deal. It has the same movement in house movement as the santos (1847 MC) and even in their gold and diamond watch worth 20-30k. That being said, I want to sell this watch because I don't really use it. I don't wear it as an everyday cause it scratches to easy. It's not a dress watch to me because I never wear a suit and tie everything.

My 2nd row, is Japanese watches only (from R to L):

1: SBGA493: This watch is a US exclusive limited to 500 pieces. It was sold out before it went up for sale because of pre orders. I was able to get one after they were released for retail. I say after release because everyone on eBay and chrono24 already raised to the price to about $8-$9k. Retail being 6k. Money aside, RED DIALS ARE MY FAVORITE AND HARD TO FIND. When GS released this, I knew I had to have it. It's one of like 5 GS releases with both a red dial and spring drive. This is my EDC watch.

2: Seiko speedtimer SSC813: I actually really really like this watch. It's a chronograph 39mm. That's a really great size. And the watch feels high quality on your wrist by how thick everything is, in a good way. I love that it solar. I wish a manufacturer make quartz solar chrono with 3 sundials and one timing 12 hrs because the 24hr sundial is completely useless and stupid. Overall great watch. Highly recommend under $1000k

3: Casio G-Shock GW-5000U-1JF: This is a Japanese only release (JDM) model. It also has thier "new" model which is indicated by the U. It's saught after because its made in Japan, the case back is dlc SS and the resin is higher quality than say a 5610u. I bought this on Amazon for a good price and didn't have to pay any extra taxes or cost. As everyone says, this my SHTF watch. Love it. S tier. God level.

4: Citizen CA0650-58E: This was my first watch. My mom bought it for me at Macy's. It's a super-titanium case and bracelet with a sapphire crystal. You also can't really find this model online but this was makes me lowkey emotional because it was a gift from my mom (don't worry she's still alive and well lol) and it started my journey into watch collecting.

Okay finished. Side note the watch box is the WOLF Heritage 10-Piece Watch Box with Glass Cover.

So there's my collection, what do you think? What could be added and what needs to go? Thank you so much for your time, enjoy your day!

Odd take but I just can’t get into “full” numerals on Rolex because of the logo placement. Seeing 11 and not 12 just feels weird. Otherwise great set
