Post subject:  Keep Just One From Your Current Collection?

All the talk about the 2011 models and the few members that are "Breitlingless" at the moment got me thinking about how I would feel if I was without a Breilting, leading to me thinking about what if I had to cut it down to only one watch. So as the title states if you had to keep one watch from your current collection what would it be?........

Me, I think my SF followed by Evo, point being that it would be a Breitling :lingsrock: as reading a past thread like this one there was a lot that would pick their Rolex....So again, keep just one from you current collection?

If I could keep only one Breitling, it would probably be my Ltd Edition Airwolf because it has sentimental value. Only one watch, my GMTIIc. :D

If I could only keep one it would be my JLC Navy Seals Alarm...easy decision.

Hard to say, but I think it would be a toss up between my GMTIIc and PAM 292

For me, I would keep my gmt IIc.
If it's only a breitling I would keep my lemania cossie.

GMT IIc followed very very very closely by the Navy Seals Alarm.

I would probably say the Navi would be the one I would hang on to, although I would be hopeless during any heavy activity.

Hi all,

Well of course reducing to just one watch would i imagine be hard for most of us and out of my humble and small collection the one i feel that would cover my needs the best is actually my current favourite and most recent acquisition which is my IWC Ingenieur Ceramic i just love this watch more than any of the others.

It would be painful to set aside the Cockpit and terribly distressing to waive the Navi 01 and Sub C :cry: , but I'd go with the GMT IIc - a little extra flash over the Sub but without being flashy, plus the functionality of the watch for travel. The Sub's clasp is almost enough standing alone tho.


It would be very close between the GMT IIc, Sub C, and Navi 01 - very. But the GMT Master IIc it is. Navi 01 if it has to be a Breitling.

Taking the title literally - that it has to be a watch from my current collection - the answer is none. My collection, such as it is, is in transition. Whatever I do end up getting would perforce be the answer, though. On the high end of the price spectrum is the Sub-C. Low end is SMP-C (new this year). I've also got my eye on a couple pre-Evolution Windriders that exemplify what I like(d) best about Breitling. So Breitlings are not excluded. I could definitely be happy with the ones I'm looking at. But significantly, they are aftermarket. I have no interest in any current Lings, unfortunately.

Apparently I need to take a closer look at the GMTIIc. I always assumed my first Rolex would be the Sub-c or the new Explorer II with the larger case, but clearly I need to look at the GMTIIc again.

Yeah, sort of an overwhelming response. I didn't read the thread before my choice.

It's the big platinum numbers on the ceramic bezel and green GMT hand that make me drool for mine. I do love the look of Sub C but the GMT just has a little something extra for me. :rolex

Well it won't surprise anyone to know that it wouldn't be a GMTIIc for me :lol:

One wrist watch, probably the Louis Moinet Twintech, one watch would actually likely be one of the pocket watches in my collection. One Breitling, probably a vintage piece, of the modern ones it would be the Navi 01.
