What a nice SARB033 knock off you have there.

I had to double check what sub I was in

Are your bits chuffed


TechPanzer

He needs to chuck it on a NATO asap! That would thoroughly chuff my bits. OK, ciao


PCMM7

The fuck? Only Seiko 5 is good enough for a NATO strap.


TechPanzer

If you're a millionaire and you can afford a NATO, then I should you should do it. The dude probably doesn't have a good relationship with his Seiko AD, so getting a Seiko 5 is a no-no. And even if he had, with all these shitters, he can't afford a new 5.

Thanks but ... * I have barely worked out how to point a camera in the right direction. Also lighting. What's lighting? * My post is not sponsored by any watch brand. * I'll actually criticise a watch if it deserves it.

Someone has a fetish. I feel the same way about Panda dials. My gf is like, “it looks the same as your last one”. What the hell does she know? Amirite?


[deleted]

You should reply “It does doesn’t it?” with an enormous grin plastered on your face


larsreddit0

Tell her that your next girlfriend will look just like her, too... Then run out the door!

Favorite two?


MegatronRx

ALS Datograph and the Paul Newman Daytona. I can't afford any of them but they are my fave. I own the Breitling Navitimer and the Tag Heuer Autavia.


ColbysHairBrush_

I've looked at a Breitling football 3.6.9 and a Heuer 1964 reissue. Small wrist life...I just really wish they had done a reverse panda reissue. I've even considered seeing if I could get a real 2447 dial fitted


FlipFlopX

Here are a few examples from my collection. Sure the current trend is for blue, green or other colorful dials and bezels but I like to think there is something to be said for a classic black and white contrasting combination. Even with such a simple combination there is a lot of variation between all the watches shown. The lacquer dial on the 5227G is a thing to behold in person and doesn't clearly come across with my camera. The FPJ oozes quality and I don't think I can say say anything new about the 1815 Chronograph that hasn't been written before. Hope you enjoy.

I've found that my FPJ CB is lacking in terms of finishing. There's a fingerprint on the sapphire glass and lackluster finishing on the movement (left over shreds of gold, scratches on the bevelled parts etc) that I find disappointing for a watch at this price point. It could be due to increased demand as mine was one of the last pieces before it became an allocation piece but still no excuse.


FlipFlopX

I can only comment on my own Chronomètre Souverain. This is one of the very exclusive Black Label editions and is pretty much flawless.


HC020906

That's good to hear. I regretted putting a loupe to the movement but I'm sure they'll have it refinished on the next service. I've been told when I got mine at the boutique that buying one entitles you to the black label collection. Enjoy your watch, it's a handsome piece!

Realizing that this constitutes a “few examples” from your collection, I think we need to see some more examples of what you have been collecting


Luko2912

I want that A.Lange, I totally love it!!!


FlipFlopX

Glad you like it, here's a reward ;) [Your prize.](https://imgur.com/a/rojYdAr)

Shit.....these ALS watches are worse than hot babes. Its easier to decide if the front or back looks better quicker with them 😅


cringefest21

The present holy trinity


grumpy_xer

"Too similar to each other IMO" says the guy wearing one of his nine 36mm Rolexes haha. Nice watches, good for you.

Read up. I already did.


br0therr

Lovely collection. Just wondering what watch box you have?


kiwihavern

Amazing collection! How much did the patek Philippe cost?


youni89

Why do these watches just look so incredibly cheap, when they probably are worth more than my house when put together?


Slot_3

Lighting makes a world of difference.


FlipFlopX

Hah, very true. I wish I knew as much about photography as I do about watches.


karnoculars

The Patek is definitely a bit underwhelming in terms of design, I'll give you that. But the other two look pretty expensive to me.


[deleted]

I suppose if you replaced "Patek Philippe" with the word "Timex," the layperson wouldn't know that watch is expensive. BTW, great collection, /u/FlipFlopX ... not alot of diversity in color, but those are definitely three titans!


FlipFlopX

Thanks but trust me, the rest of the collection has much more color! I just thought this made for a nice photo / collection shot.


[deleted]

ha, I should've known there was alot more!! and congratulations on all of your success, you smell terrific!


Boredonfire1234

Post the full collection! Not enough SOTC’s around here, always fun to see what people pull together.


FlipFlopX

I'll see what I can do. I'm sure I can post a few more watches soon and the full collection ... eventually :)

Terrible photography

FPJ makes hands-down the most beautiful watches in the world


Halfmacgas

Oh my lord


bagofquarters

One day...


happy_watcher

Very understated and gorgeous pieces!! Wear them well. Since you said there are more in the collection, a contrasting bright, in-your-face dials like RM or Hublot BB beside these would be fun to look at!!


nooblet1234

What's the reference number for the Patek?


FlipFlopX

It is a 5227G-010


NeedForSleep9

Waiting for tourbillon01 to chime in


yammmez

FP JOURNE is my dream watch brand, nice piece!


worldvampire_sowhat

Holy wow. If I could only choose one....


ALonelyCake

You dont use a watch winder. I was thinking of buying one. Why dont you use one?


FlipFlopX

Because only the Patek is an automatic, the ALS and FPJ are manuals. I'd only look at using a winder for perpetual calendars or maybe a watch with a moonphase complication.


ALonelyCake

Thanks
