Collection
Nicolas (amanico) presents a thought-provoking challenge to the WatchProSite community, inviting collectors to consider their watch collections through the strategic lens of a chess game. This creative analogy encourages enthusiasts to evaluate the roles and significance of individual timepieces within their broader horological 'arsenal.' His post sparks a discussion on how collectors might categorize their watches, from the most powerful 'Queen' to essential 'pawns,' fostering a deeper appreciation for the diversity and purpose of each piece.
All you need is another player with 9 white faced models or, better still, 9 rose gold models and you have yourself a game!
On what you would consider your Queen, Rook, Bishop and Knight as I don't see any pawns
. . . three pieces. Two of them should be Ω refs 14755 and 165.024.
. . . of needing twelve pieces to form a chess team. If you have to get three more, two should be Omega classics you don't currently have. Of course, if you decide to play American football instead . . . . . . you'll only need to add the two Omegas.
Cheers from Argentina where - on my first visit to South America - scenery, beef and wine have taken all of my attention. Very few vintage watches to be seen, but a few Brazilians tourist wear their modern RLXs with pride and no fear of „losing“ them. I was too chicken and only took my Swatch along. Richard
