Today is a rainy and horrible day in NY, spending the rest of the day in the hotel before getting ready for my flight back home and took a crappy phone pic of the watches I bought in my recent buying spree:

They are from left to right:

PAM 311 Brown dialed Chrono Monopulsante

PAM 233 (from home)

B&R Heritage

PAM 305 Sub

Seiko Ananta Multi Hand Automatic

Omega PloProf

UN Chronometer 43

Rolex DJ II

IWC Big Pilot

Rolex GMT IIc

AP Royal Oak Offshore

oh yeah and an IWC Big Inge bracelet.

Looking forward to getting back home and uniting these bad boys with the rest of the collection! :mrgreen:

:shock: :wowzers :bow: :drool: Etc.

OK I've run out of suitable emoticons! Just an amazing set of purchases, Altair. There really is little else I can say other than....hugely jealous! :D

Oh and I'm glad to see I was right the other week about it being a 311 you were getting. :thumbsup:

Wouldn't want to be you getting back through customs :lol:

That's a seriously nice month Altair, I love the way that your collection is evolving. Obviously we have different tastes but you really have some great variety and some tremendous quality there.

Heck, even the wallclocks look slightly different from one another. :poke: :wink:

Thanks for the comments guys!

Roff, the customs thing is really bugging me man! I am also worried about leaving the country with these watches as much as I am about getting in with them!!!

You where indeed my friend, good guess!

I have to say, I am loving the titanium on these bad boys, due to the size increase in these two watches the titanium offsets that nicely and the balance is great!

You know you've had a good month when a couple of PAMs and ceramic Rolex barely rate a mention! :lol:

Great stuff, Altair. As far as buying sprees go, that one's going to take some beating.

I could take or leave the watches but take a look at that ship paperweight in the background! That's a keeper! :poke: :wink: :lol:

Seriously, that is one hell of a grouping. You should be proud to add every single one of these to your collection. All amazing pieces and I'm glad to have read your reviews for most of them!

The Ship paperweight is actually a Panerai display model, very cool I think! :mrgreen:

WOWOWOW that's like a lifetime of watches for most of us (ok maybe just me). good luck altair and smooth sailing getting 'em past customs and safely home in 1...or 13 pieces :)

Absolutely phenomenal. Jealousy doesn't even come close. What an outstanding month!

At least I can enjoy it vicariously. Congratulations Altair, at least someone is doing it :D

Good luck getting them all home. And how exactly do you plan to top that next month :?: :wink:

God help us for he has sin...A LOT!!

I don't know about Saudi customs but if you declare i guess you should have no problem. Normally when you have cash for all these little babies, duties and taxes are not a problem. But hey, it's Saudi...the border guards might one to keep one each :popo: :wink: 8)

That is just incredible Altair. I'm not often out of words, but now...

Seeing your results of that shopping spree is truly amazing.
