SOTC 05/2023
After numerous requests (ok two), SOTC as promised. Yep, insane number by almost any measure - and that's after I "consolidated"
Top row + FXD/U50P are the core, though I certainly enjoy the rest. I constantly look at/admire others, but not much grabs me in the WTB category anymore - nor should any as I'm already certifiably nuts
Only one incoming, will be the Raven Endeavor II in yellow (despite the fact I thought no more micros's, ever). But I've never had a yellow dial watch and that one seems like it would/will be fun.
FYI, last one is a Garmin Fenix S Solar/Sapphire (42mm). Used mainly for Golf and workouts. It's by far the best for Golf for me ever, and I've had a few. Size is great, locks in to satellites in seconds (not minutes), and will easily run for many rounds (unlike others) on a full charge.
My once meager photographic skills continue to erode, so this is as good as it gets for pics.
Attempt at a group lume shot.

Re: SOTC 05/2023
Whoa! I thought I had too many at 5. That's a great collection though, I'd wear any of them.
Re: SOTC 05/2023
Nice collection!!!
Re: SOTC 05/2023
Thanks Jeff. 5 is a considerably more sane number, clearly I'm not sane.
Thanks Chris. Seeing some of the truly incredible pieces in your collection, that's high praise.
Re: SOTC 05/2023
Looks like you need 4 more!
Great collection!

Re: SOTC 05/2023
Magnificent collection, seriously well curated and making me want to go and look for a few of these.
Re: SOTC 05/2023
Thanks Tyler. Yeah, need 4 more like I need a hole in my head (though the evidence is I already have one).

Wow, impressive group.
I have the same Raven incoming; looking forward to it.
Re: SOTC 05/2023
Thanks Matt. Yeah, the Raven looks nice, good looking case and size specs, nice lume, and adjustable clasp. Also looking forward to it.mattcantwin wrote: ↑Mon May 01, 2023 9:25 amWow, impressive group.

That's some consolidated collection Rob, the raven will add a little pop to the box. I'd be content, very nice.
Re: SOTC 05/2023
Incredible collection. Our tastes are pretty similar overall.
Re: SOTC 05/2023
FAAAAAK I wish i had never asked - that is an AWESOME collection! Where exactly do you live? Asking for a friend
I think the only thing missing in your box is a Ball Engineer - I just happen to be selling one - you're welcome!
Love every single one of your watches...

Wow, amazing collection and similar taste.
A few thoughts:
Every time I think I have too many dive watches I will pull up this thread.
Even though I have owned the JLC Navy Seal diver twice, I still look to see if any come up for sale. I wish I had the money the last time one came up for sale here. One of four watches I have owned at least twice. It is a sickness for sure.

As for directions, head West for about 3000 miles, then take a right. Last house on the left.
Believe me, I did peruse your FS listing
Thanks much. I'm with you on the sickness angle, though I suppose it could be worse....giosdad wrote: ↑Mon May 01, 2023 1:35 pmWow, amazing collection and similar taste.

Thanks Blaine - Anything I can do to help
Re: SOTC 05/2023
We have super similar tastes! Great collection.
Re: SOTC 05/2023
Whao, kicking some big goals there Rob. Nothing there I wouldn't say no to.
Watches are on the back burned for me a bit. Haven't lost interest, just $ going into other projects.
