Wow.. was looking at the prices of the watches with astronomical & striking complications.. dont think i can include complications in variety parameters.. well at least, for now, to think positively..

I suppose buying one, is just part of the issue.. maintainance is a whole new planet in its own..

Haha. Instead of ranking it based on desirability, prob rank them on usefulness.

1. Time
2. Date
3. Day date
4. Annual calendar
5. Gmt
6. Perpetual calendar
7. Chrono
8. Minute repeater
9. Tourbillion

Great! I'll definitely add complications into my variety list & start w d basics first.. time to let go of one chrono & get either a daydate or a moonphase.. saw a fairbit of 42mm zenith moonphase or even moonphased moonwatch..

I dont even have a basic time only watch.. maybe ideal time for a simple panerai 44mm..

A pam312 or pam359 would be awesome collector piece

I'm leaning towards the even more basic tobacco dialed titanio 562.. just worried the absence of the seconds hand might irk me in the future.. still gauging.. if it's an issue, maybe a 564 then.. but read some reviews that the in-house p5000 hv some issue on accuracy running up to 1-2minutes a day..

But in the plus side, i get to tick a few variety there; brand, 44mm, brown dial, simple time only complications, manual wind, versatile in strap selection..

Any thots on this specific model?

I have a zenith captain annual calendar that ticks off calendar as well as chrono. Next stop a 7 day power reserve or a 8 day manual winding which panerai has a model, can't remember the model no.

Hi guys..

While we ended the discussion on the higher ended complications.. i instead went 180 and got me the most basic watch..

A manual winding, no date, albeit w chrono function, nato strapped 42mm moonwatch..

So adding to
1. JLC reverso grande hometime; dinnerwear croctrap with 35mm width squareshaped
2. Rolex 116610LV; casualwear ss brace with 40mm width round
3. Breitling navitimer 01; semi formal calfstrap with 46mm width roundfaced

I suppose my next one would be d 44mm panerai or 38mm santos.. but on isofrane or rubber straps.. perhaps slight priority on the pam with power reserve indicators.. that would complete 40, 42, 44 & 46mm sizes.. & then the 38mm.. well, the dream or target for 2016 la.. lets see how it turns out..
