I have a couple Seikos, and a nice Omega that I got as a groomsman gift. I have honestly never worn it...just not interested. My mechanic/farm lifestyle doesn't allow for chunky jewelry, so to prevent damage, or injury, I wear no watches, rings, bracelets, or necklaces...(my wife weras my wedding band).

It would have been easy for me to have started collecting watches..

Not crazy expensive, but I'm in a long wait list to get a d.m.h. jump hour watch. I think I have another year or two to wait...

Franck Muller crazy hours, the movement has jump hour for the misplaced hour markers, minutes work traditionally

This is the exact model I lust after, down to the pepsi bezel. Sinn 756 is a close second.

I've been rocking an Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean since 2011, great watch... never serviced, worn daily in all kinds of conditions, still within COSC spec.

Those omega movements are awesome and crafted at such high standards...I had a ceramic bezel planet ocean chronograph. Just a bit big on my small wrist

Not a holy grail, (I don't think I have one actually), but still a very nice watch and my daily wear.

Some really beautiful watches on this resurrection thread!

I bought this watch when I made O-6 a long time ago. Not a "Grail" watch but it fits me, has been my DD ever since. I never take it off.

When I had it serviced they asked me if I wanted the patina of the bezel insert fixed: Absolutely not...we'll grow old(er) together since this is it for me.
