Which Watches Do You Wish were Made?
For me it is the following: 1) Rolex Day Date in Steel or Titanium 2) AP Royal Oak Jumbo with a Carbon case and Carbon Bracelet 3) JLC Reverso in Titanium on bracelet What's on your wish list? S
Have mine lined up.
Patek Ref 96, classic Calatrava aesthetics Movement from 6119 37mm case (or as small as movement allows) Enamel dial New bracelet from ellipse YG I have no clue why Patek does not do this.
Me neither.
That first one would be so EASY for them and such a delight to their fans, not doing it almost seems like perversity on Patek's part.
My wishes are :
1. JLC memovox in 36-38 mm. No limited edition BS. 2. Breguet Marine in steel bracelet 3. Rolex millgaus in 36-38 mm, with combination of brushed and polished finish. 4. VC overseas 37 mm in steel 5. GP reissued Gyrodate in 36-38 mm. 6. Rolex yacthmaster ...
The previous generation Breguet Marine did come with a steel bracelet and can be found.
The current one in titanium can come on a bracelet as well.
I made peace with it unlikely to happen
And for self-comforting sake I did some photoshop and it doesn't look good with the current off-axis chrono movements which ruins the symmetry required for sector dials.
A 42mm version of the Breitling Emergency with the latest frequency.
i know that's probably a very UNsexy choice, yet i'd really like one for when traveling.
VC traditionelle small seconds in platinum with salmon or green dial
Or guilloche pattern (unsure color)
Same…. But
37mm. Black dial gilt guilloche… blue railroad and blued steel hour markers and blues steel sword dial with a second travel time sword in platinum. Outer Case is also blasted finish - or brushed.
This seems so doable, but they tease us with a rose gold version or the platinum version with the tourbillon.
I wouldn’t mind the tourbillon version…but my wallet does.😤
My list
A VC overseas no date gilt dial 38mm. . A Rolex Rootbeer GMT no date . PP 5196 steel bullseye 38mm . Milguass travel time no date steel 38mm . Reissue IWC Hermit 38mm bullseye . A Credor Eichi no date travel time
Rolex triple date moonphase with 100M water resistance...
38mm x 9mm would do. Yellow gold. Applied numbers and stars for markers, of course : ) ...
You sir, ask for too much!
Surely the apocalypse would be upon us should your desire come to fruition ;-)
Duometre UTT tantalum case, black enamel dial, Duometre Rattrapante Chronograph, Blancpain Fifty Fathoms very close to the original, Tudor BB 54 GMT Tropical Dial with a ceramic bezel,
Ulysse Nardin Innovision, Girard Perregaux WW TC Enamel Dial, tantalum 40 mm case, no date, a true Breguet Type XX, and... Two or three WPS special editions... Best, Nicolas
Just thought of a good one...
...a classic Breguet tourbillon with no hole in the dial. Only visible from the back. Let's go 38-39mm x 8mm (thin). Manual wide of course. Choice of guilloche or grand feu enamel with hand-painted numerals and markers. I really am asking for the world : ...
The original 90s AP starwheel with a tantalum case
That would instantly become my grail watch
A VC Overseas in 38-39mm
Preferably no date. I also wonder how that watch would look with normal lugs, just cut the inner part where the strap attaches to the case wider and put normal spring bars in it.
This is THE thread of 2024.
1. Titanium Omega moonwatch 2. Patek 6119 in steel 3. AP Jumbo with micro-adjustment 4. Blancpain FF 42mm NO-Date 5. FPJ chrono bleu with PR on the caseback 6. Reverso in grade 5 titanium 7. Any grand seiko with a decent bracelet (hate all their deployant...

I’d like a non limited Cartier Tortue, some different iterations would be good, just make a new line of it
