State of my collection: My Midrange divers

[RBrylawski]

Rod I'd love a UTS and narrowly missed buying one a few weeks ago. Yours is a lovely one!

Thanks Gary. In many ways, you were inspiration for my UTS purchase!

Fix your pictures sir.

My next Aquadive post will be once the Fleurier arrives. Which is hopefully soon. It's taking a lot of willpower not to email Ben and see where he is at with the watches. I'd rather it be right instead of rushed.

I've been keeping an eye for a deal on a gently used 1000/1200

In other words, I'd love to see an Aquadive included in the collection of the OP!

I removed the pictures, stick with the 1200T

I've had some really great watches in my collection, AP ROO, Vacheron Overseas Chrono, Breguet Marine II chrono, Blancpain Fifty Fathoms, Aegir CD-2 and so on but I didn't enjoy wearing them, tho I loved owning them. I sold them for watches I simply loved to wear.

True WIS enlightenment, right there.

Nice collection- I'm a Helson fan too. Great bang for your dollar and despite recent customer service issues, buying a Helson has been a very rewarding buy for me.

Aquadive does not make a watch that appeals to me. Also, except for the NOS model, I find their hands not particularly legible having only a small amount of lume and legibility has been a focus of mine in all my recent purchases.

As someone who has had the opportunity to see your collection evolve in person and have had the opportunity to observe and touch each of your watches, let me just say great collection friend!

[Perseus]

I love that you have watches I've never heard of (Ancon Tank)or have forgotten about (Helson Sharkmaster). My bank account feels differently.

I struggled on which thread to reply to because there are watches I covet in all three (snap that DeWitt is sick bro! and the JLC, well you know I think you should disown your family and leave it to me...) So I chose the one at the top of the recent threads list cause I'm lazy like that.

Gary, you have the most amazing collection I know. Please keep up the good fight on nailing it down and we will all benefit from your experiences. Please post more reviews of the watches you find on your journy. An SOTC at any given time misses all the passers through, which many times are just as interesting.

Crepas Cayman 3000 - my dress diver. With all my wild watches I love having this.

Every time I stop kicking myself about missing the boat on one of these, someone posts a picture of one
BTW Nice Aquatimer, too They're all nice actually; just those 2 are my favourites.

It is really a fantastic watch. The more I wore it, the more I liked it. I understand how someone can find it boring, but it is beautifully executed in its simplicity. Superlegible with a pip that is so easy to find in low light. For my eyes it is as dressy as a Submariner. I am very happy with this watch.
