What watch is at the very top of your "want" list right now, and why?
For me there are several on my mind but I think I have to say it's the Lange Timezone in platinum. There are a few (vintage pieces) I've passed on in the meantime to try to keep "powder dry" for a possible Time Zone purchase.
That said, I have a factory trip to another brand coming up and there was s a piece there that interests me quite a lot, maybe as much as the Timezone, but we'll see.
The Timezone holds particular appeal because I love travel watches/complications, and platinum pieces too, so this has been on my radar for some time. Also, I've really come to appreciate Lange and this would be my first.
What is at the top of your hit list?

F.P. Journe Vagabondage
The Vagabondage III was on the top of my list but I bought both the II and III which will be dilevered tomorrow. F.P. Journe is a genius and the Vagabondage III is the most advance manual digital watch every produced...JIm
Vianny Halter Classic
I've been looking and thinking and looking and thinking for about two years in which time a few have come up. Unfortunately I wasn't ready to buy. Why? Iconic, timeless in a "what the fu$%" kinda way. My collection is at the point also where something dif...

The first seems the most possible!
That watch, with some luck, a sympathetic dealer, and some savings... don't give up the dream! My own ambitions center around a JLC minute repeater. I'm still trying to determine which one. The only certainty is that the original 2005/6 Master Minute Repe...
Voutilainen Vingt-8 in Platinum
I love KV's dials and his imagination! I continue to marvel at his pieces! One day, one day! ...
Greubel Forsey GMT is on top of my wish list 🙏🏻
There are many (indie)watches that i have on my list but for now this watch is my ,i hope one day, watch . The craftmanship and passion (i know a lot of indie brands have that) is for me one of the best so far . ...
Patek
That’s a very nice piece you are looking at! I’m looking at a 3940G or 3940P, as my work piece. Would sell everything in my collection to have that and one non-work piece. For me, the 3940 represents the peak of Patek engineering and style.
It's lonely at the top...

I have many grails & want lists....
....but if the chance came tomorrow it would be these two. As a life long Speedy lover (have had one since c1974), these 2 are the very rare all platinum Speedy and 2008 gold Speedy. Best, John. ...
Tricky question.
My 'Want' list is topped by the Patek 5078P black dial. But that is a while away for now. On the 'Realistic Want' list, the top spot changes almost hourly. It is currently topped by the Omega Trilogy. ...
Chronostop + alarm
Hi Currently an Omega chronostop - and not entirely sure why. It's tiny & timing function not that useful, so it's probably it's quirkyness that's appealing. Then there's an alarm - but there's always an alarm! Cheers JML

... my absolute dream watch is the Lange Datograph, the first version without power reserve. I loved it all the time, but only when he gave his to me to put on my wrist, I was completely sold. All the time before I always dreamt of a repeater watch, but I...
Tough, very tough question.
I would say the Duometre Unique Travel Time. Why? First it is a Jaeger Lecoultre, a brand I respect and like a lot. Then it is a Duometre, a line which is, in my opinion, one of the most interesting, all brands included. Also, it is a Travel Watch, a comp...
Patek 5230 and 5164.
I somehow like this travel function a lot, they'll complement my Lange Timezone perfect. Aris
Wochentag-Automatik in Platin
That is the Lange 1 Daymatic in platinum! A perfect watch for a business man: not too big and with a very useful complication mix of big date and retrograde day display, powered by a beautiful, beautiful auto movement.
Surprisingly, the Roger Dubuis all carbon tourbillon
Even the movement structure is all carbon...so incredibly light, reminds me of the RM009 from years ago...
Richard Lange PLM 260.032, but
waiting for perfect specimen. I've been a major fan since release, but Padj's photos are haunting me, and not just on Halloween!
