Not sure if it’s me or maybe the angle, but looks like you need to screw down the crown on the Sinn.

[–] Substantial_Net_2813@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

No Rolexes! Multiple Seikos! 👍👍

[–] mediumj82@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Very nice! Versatile too! Love the Alpinist, Sinn and Nomos.

[–] ConstantEnergy457@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Really cool collection

[–] RobbersTwo@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Nothing humble about it. It's a great collection.

[–] Rapier4@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

What Strap is on the Hammerhead? I have that same model and the strop you have there looks great! (though it looks like its not Bronze hardware). Which to that comment, the bronze that Zelos uses doesn't always match 3rd party hardware and that can be annoying. But the strap you chose looks great!

Your collection has a lot of nice variety in colors and with straps. Like seeing that over all the same metal bracelets. Cheers!

[–] JournalistDizzy998@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

thanks! there aren't too many bronze strap options and you're right about getting that perfect match. what i have here is an apple green one piece from Watch Obsession. i would've shared a link, but i can't find it on their site anymore.

[–] 2012Tribe@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

We have similar taste; your upper row in particular gets me aroused to say the least.

Which of the two Halios do you prefer?

[–] JournalistDizzy998@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

haha, say no more. please.

it's so hard to give a preference. i found myself wearing the bahama yellow most days this summer, but likely switching to the bronze for fall. the copper aluminum alloy has a clean warm brass like quality.

[–] Value_horology@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Awesome! Colorful, yet very tasteful. Love it

[–] SnooDoughnuts1946@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Dig the collection. Nomos really pops on that yellow strap!

[–] cptjaydvm@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Nice collection. Keep grinding.

[–] smokelaw@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

What’s the black seiko on the Milanese?

[–] mcmlxxivxxiii@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Sell me that Halios Seaforth Bronzo.

[–] bda22@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

you make great use of straps

[–] mc408@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Hello fellow Sinn and Halios owner! I have a Sinn 556a and Halios Seaforth III, fixed bezel, pastel blue dial.

[–] Rosschops@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Alpinist🤢

[–] MagicalOrgazm@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

How is owning 10 different automatic watches humble?

[–] You-get-the-ankles@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I love that blue/yellow combo.

[–] Zehcomputerguy@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

This is a collection I can appreciate. Love seeing the micro brands!

[–] einsteinisbae@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

love the Sinn

[–] Hanged_Man_@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Hardly humble but it is nice! Some great watches in there.

[–] Capital_Jacket_8767@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

That Sinn is beautiful!

[–] yonimanko@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

What is the strap of your Seiko Prospex ( ala Alpinist )? Looks good.

[–] JournalistDizzy998@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

A Colareb, I think.

[–] JournalistDizzy998@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Correction: Hadley Roma!

[–] uplifting_southerner@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Dude. So many sick watches here... What do you wear the most?

[–] _visiblemode_@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

The Nomos Club in blue is 🔥

[–] dwindlingpests@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Two halios! I have been trying to get one off and on for years and never managed to catch a release on time before it sold out. Congrats! Iove the lizard grain strap on the seiko sarb035. Actually all the straps compliment the watches really well.

[–] JJJEYHANNN@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

White Alpinist on brown leather is an absolute beauty

[–] bc6619@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Any collection that has a SARB035 is a good one.

[–] Drawli2600@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

7 out of 10 … Nomos saved the score

[–] WineNerdAndProud@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

That yellow Halios...

[–] Awkward-Sale4235@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

very nice array of colors and materials .. pretty cool collection i'd say 🫡

[–] chilidawgg88@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

What is the Seiko from the bottom, second from the left? Love the look of it.

[–] Admirable_Pie_6609@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Great stuff! Love the Sinn especially

[–] kapparino-feederino@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Need more Seiko for sure :)

[–] Von_Lehmann@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I think calling any collection of luxury items "humble" is cringe

But sick Nomos

[–] SnooPandas8338@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I’m humbled by your humble collection😂

[–] RealUltimatePapo@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

$6000+ collection

"humble"

My friend, you have lost perspective. Reality is that-a-way --->

[–] JournalistDizzy998@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Why do you assume I still have both my testicles???

[–] Letossgm@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I love the Halios one! I submitted my request already to get one when they have more in stock haha. The collection looks dope.

[–] JournalistDizzy998@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Buying directly from Jason at Halios is a multiyear endeavor. Never give up. Never surrender.

[–] Alberta_Boi@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Your collection tells me you buy what you love and not what others love, your a very classy person, probably dresses very well, and you enjoy nights out and enjoying life with your… wife? You also have a wild side that rarely comes out, maybe once a month.

Anyways, love your collection, keep doing what you enjoy!

[–] JournalistDizzy998@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Kind words! I actually use watches to compensate for my slovenly lifestyle, though I do buy what I love.

[–] laney_deschutes@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

It’s not humble unless you have patek and vacheron

[–] Happy_Boy_29@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I love the ironic use of humble, on the humble scale of 1 to 5 I'd say not 2 humble.

[–] Wikadood@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Finally someone that has more than black and white faces

[–] hapac@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Really nice! I especially dig the halios (is that bronze?) with the black strap with the white dots. Do you know where you got that strap?

Also would be interested in the ref nr for the seiko second from the left, bottom row :)

[–] Mawaqeet@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

You, my guy, you have all right Seikos! Congrats 🎉👏
