.... I'll open with a JLC Master Grande Tradition Minute Repeater in Titanium. With respect to vintage watches, I have to think. Maybe a Rolex 8171, perhaps a genuine U.S. Navy-issued Blancpain Fifty Fathoms. My heart's torn... and there's my excuse to po... 

The JLC MMR is a logical choice when it comes to dream watches. And i'm curious to discover the rest of your selection when you'll be ready. Thanks and best regards Fabio

Just for the fun. Best, Iron Man, with the platinum wallet.

Aaaaauch! Mo ...  

No, i don't think so. If we can fulfill all our dreams, life will not be interesting and fun anymore. The collection of Gyrotourbillon (Gyro1, Gyro 2, Gyro 3) is almost a "sans faute" for me. Not an easy task to choose which one speak more to our heart. C... 

Long time sold out... Absolutely agree with you, my friend. If we could achieve all our dreams, we would not have dreams anymore... All the best, Nicolas

My name is Fabio and i'm pleasantly lost... Ok for the first three. Then, if i'm not wrong, there should be a Panerai California, watch(es) from Kari Voutilainen, watch(es) from Leroy ? For the others, i don't know :( Nice to know a horological junkie....... 

Yes Kari & Cali were in question as well as Panerai PreV Logo Monaco from TAG Heuer DeBethunes Digitale, DBS and Celestial ala Mo JLC Reverso Septantieme VC American, Reverso from JLC (Red White & Blue one) :) UN Trilogy set, UN freak and UN Forge... 

Hi Well if it can be anything - I'll have a Patek 5078-001, but not only that as they are fond of saying - you only look after it for the next generation, I'd like a lifetimes worth of servicing with it too please :-). There'd be no point to having such a... 

Simple layout and elegant ! Best regards Fabio

If I am honest with myself, I feel very lucky to own the watches that I do own, and while there certainly are pieces in the areas where I actually am a buyer that I continue to lust after, I think of a whole class of watch that I haven't even touched yet ...
