Just ONE watch...and that's final!!

[JJ]

Hi guys,

I've done this before, but being this a new forum, let's have some fun!!

The wifey comes storming into your room, wags her finger at you and says: "Listen up, you tosser, you have to get rid of ALL your watches, bar ONE....just ONE....your choice!! All the rest have to be sold off!"

Simple question: Which ONE would you hang on to?

Sorry for making life so hard on you guys, but let's just play on, uh?

I'll go first....I would keep just this ONE if it came to that!!

I never thought that I wold pick this one... but it would be the AquaTerra chronograph.
Water resistant: yes.
Versatile: yes.
Tough: yes.
Accurate: yes
Makes me smile: yes.

[JJ]

Excellent choice, Chip. I somehow knew that if you hopped on to this thread, you would pick that baby!!

Practical in every which way and what a looker!!

[CHIP]

I always thought that it would be the PO.
But it's not. And... when i bought the AT I did not even like it a few days later. Heck... I put it up for sale on the forum I used to frequent!
Then, out of the blue... It just grew on me like a fungus! lol
Now it is the most worn watch I have!
And it's a BIG watch too.
Look at the size difference: (horrible picture quality.... sorry)

That bloomin' DJ looks like a mid-size at just 36 mm!!

[CHIP]

No DJ. that's just a "D" actually. 34mm!

OMG!! Even worse!! ::)Boy's size!!

[CHIP]

Yeap. Boy size.
But look at that pretty dial.... I am not a fan of Arabic numerals. I would rather have roman or stick... but that dial is FLAWLESS!

It's a choice between these two:



and this one:



Which would I chose It depends if I chose function over form (or does it) - I mean all the functions in my B-1 are built into my mobile phone I guess - but hey the B-1 is one sure hansome brute of a watch. The PO is my newest purchase so obviously gets my vote at the moment - but who can say in 6 months another watch comes along and the PO gets left on the shelf (joke). Guess I just can't make up my mind - but if it came to it, the PO is getting most wrist time (nearly), so would be the tie-break winner at this moment in time.

Then again this beauty is a classic:



How can I get rid of this one

Hey Martyn,

If you can't make up your mind by morning, I'll give your wife a call to come in and do it for you!!!

Ok Ok - After all that - it's got to be this one: Co-axial; GMT; Display Back; Seamaster; Bond



Tough; Stylish; Functional - has to be the one

[Warren]

I'd sell all of my watches and buy this:

[mamas]

i would chose the TT AT if i had to keep one, as it is the most flexible of all the watches.. can be worn for any occasion..it is tough and has a WR of 150m and only has to be serviced every 10 yrs.,. the SD comes a very close second.. doesnt really go with formal dress as too bulky imho.. even though it is my most frequent wearer.

If I had to keep one, it would be my 16610 Sub I waited almost 20 years to get it and it will be with me until I pass on to the other world(not for a long time I hope)

Cheers
Bob
