[Recommendation Request] I just survived a stroke (I've also beat cancer 2x, and survived a house explosion, but that's for another day), should I buy a watch to commemorate this event? (alien.top)

I'm 47 and am on the other side of a stroke (last Wed.) now (Feeling pretty good - my balance and motor skills suck).

I currently have:
Tudor BB GMT (Black Dial)
Tudor BB 41 (Black Dial)
Longines Hydroconquest 41 Grey dial with Grey Ceramic bezel
Seiko Bruce Lee Limited 5 Sports Edition Automatic
Dufrane Barton Springs II with Hill Country Wine Dial
Seiko Prospex SRPC93 (Save the Ocean dial)
Seiko Presage Automatic 1964 Limited Edition-SPB127J1
Casio G Shock 2100-1A

If I add something, I typically buy it second-hand and keep it under $3,000. I like unique dials, and I kinda want some sort of Panda. Open to anything though. Let's hear some suggestions for this brain-damaged watch fan.

forget about a new watch, go buy some lottery! 🤣

Jokes aside, good to hear you survived and are recovering. If you want a panda dial I would suggest the BALTIC TRICOMPAX for 1645 eur. A nice FURLAN MARRI sector dial is another great option for 1250 chf

Thanks! A salmon sector could be nice!

I did just go to Vegas and win 3k!
