Let's see...
I will be happy if i can get the stainless steel Rolex GMTIIc.
Zenith 1969 vintage or modern.
That'll make my year.... Unless something at Basel gets my fancy...

Exotic case material for me this year.

Foreseeing a full titanium watch (including bracelet) and a bronze cased watch

Got a feeling I'm getting a rolex from my dad and prolly a pam from a close friend by the end of the year.
But I wouldn't mind a forged carbon watch at all. Hehehe

Glashutte Original Navigator Perpetual Calendar in ceramic….which will take awhile to accumulate funds...
in the meantime, a Grand Seiko Snowflake...
Personal taste and preferences evolve over years, hopefully not 1 full circle otherwise it means we haven't learnt a single thing.

Immediately on wishlist is a Pam. I tried an auto the other day, felt it was a bit too bulky and high. Will try out a handwound. Prefer the Marina ones with second hands, so the PAM111 would be ideal. 2 showed up in the past few days for good prices, but it'll have to wait a bit. Perhaps my choice would change with more education, who knows. After the Pam, probably another b-uhr, the Stowas look good. I'm also very attracted to the really clean and neat Junghans as a dress watch. I don't forsee more than 2 more pieces this year, resources are a bit tight.

A tool watch is what the name indicates, a tool, like a hammer, a drill, something you actually use and don't baby. Something you wear/use when you go rough up the bar bouncer, only difference is you don't hammer a nail in with a tool watch although some tool watch are capable of that.

A bronzo is a bronze watch.

Nothing for me this year   :'(

Just a YM 16622 for the wife and hopefully a salmon dial 14000 AK for mother.

If I have some additional funds, a EXP1 for dad.
