Hey guys, I have a two part question. After looking at various top ten list for luxury watches, I'm curious to know what each of your hearts truly desire both in the Breitling lineup as well as all other brands of watches. If you had an unlimited watch budget what would be your top 5 Breitling must have models and then your top 5 must haves of any other brand of watch? Here are my lists!

Breitling

1) BB Mulliner Tourbillon
2) BB 6.75
3) Montbrillant Legende
4) Navitimer World
5) Super Avenger baton markers

Non-Breitling

1) IWC Grande Complication
2) Richard Mille RM 002-V2 Turbillon
3) Vacheron Constantin Skeleton Minute Repeater
4) Audemars Piguet Royal Oak Offshore
5) Hublot Big Bang

With all due respect that doesnt mean "watch freak" it means " I cant afford this watch". This obssesion of ours should only be funded with our "extra money". It takes longer to achieve our desires, but by saving for the watches we want we
will appreciate the accomplishment. ....just the way I work.

Heck, if I used the credit card I would have 4 times the watches I have now!!

I'm not even going to attempt a money no object non Breitling list - suffice it to say they would likely add up to several million dollars.

In terms of Breitling, in no particular order.....

Mulliner Perpetual
1942 Chronomat
1952 Navitimer
One of the Breitling for Bentley LE of 1 pocket watches for Basel each year

Not sure on the last one - a rattrapante probably, let's say the Chrono Avenger ratty LE as that is one that is hardest to find.
