This 1st generation Oysterflex ceramic everose Daytona, with “pink” dial and black chronograph hand and hour indices that were discontinued for a more subtle/refined “sundust” dial and everose chronograph hand and indices. I believe this version will appeal to future enthusiasts for its OG sporty charm that harkens back to the Dayto’s wilder, outsider days back when only Newman’s wife thought to buy them. Bonus point for how literally pink the dial can actually get in certain light.
If Rolex discontinues the red text on this Sea-Dweller 50th, it will likely take on new appeal. This particular model also sports the “Mark I” dial, a nice asterisk to its future profile.

Future Vintage is off and running! . . .
. . . let's see the candidates for cult classic in your collections. The Dornblüth ticks quite a few boxes externally . . . . . . but their movements . . . . . . are a mark of distinction. The humble integrity of the micro-manufacturer will prove to be th...

Now that's what I call . . .
. . . an easy call! SeaDwellers from any era are vintage classics now, so current models should also be classified as future vintage classics. Art
Many have claimed to see the future . . .
. . . but only Max created a future classic that can read the present!
Well Said
Max and Friends create it, others may only dream about it. I'll gladly follow Max down whatever timekeeping 'Rabbit Hole' he ventures into.
I have a few watches in my collection
that I’d like to think could be future classics - but realistically only one that I believe will end up so. Already not available from Moser as demand has completely outstripped ability to supply! ...
That slinky integrated bracelet . . .
. . . is already a classic! Guaranteed future vintage . . .
I think A future indie classic would be these two imho
Both iconic for the brands Enter text ...
If Captain Kirk . . .
. . . turns out to be a vintage guy, the Urwerk would be his grail. ...
How right you are…
And fortunately you bagged both while they were still reasonably easily available 👌🏻🙌🏻👏🏻
The Gronefeld Brothers have been on a roll
And I think their 1941 Remontoire is a future classic, especially with all the dial variations they offered, whether plain or guilloche. And the wonderful movement of course! ...
I couldn’t agree more.
This watch is right in the “sweet spot” for being considered a classic. Enough of them made to get brand and model recognition, but not so ubiquitous that they are mainstream. I think of it as a classic already - can’t believe I didn’t jump on this until ...
Another one of those fantastic pieces!
That might be very hard to source nowadays 👌🏻👍🏻
Josh Shapiro will be remembered
As an important contributor to the American watchmaking scene in my opinion. ...
Future generations of watch collectors will argue endlessly . . .
. . . over who made the better 'California' dial.
perhaps my Cartier Santos Dumont in ice-blue dial with Arabic numerals...
and my Patek 5235G hopefully... have a great weekend everyone! ...
The 5235 certainly deserves the honors…
If for nothing else for it’s innovative design 👏🏻👍🏻
Both are distinctly modern, especially the Patek . . .
. . . on account of its bi-level dial script, a design choice which seems to be proliferating. Dornblüth dials can be specified . . . . . . with sunken markers and dial script. A bit difficult to make out in this photo, but all the script and markers are ...
Crystal balling and time travel 🧭
Very nice theme, like to play. Some of the classics of the future, crystal balling and time traveling all at once - and my thinking as to why: 1/ VC CdV because of his beauty as “reasonably sized” manual wind chrono: 2/ VC Traditionelle Traditionelle “Art...
No arguments here! . . .
. . . all future vintage killers, especially the Cornes de Vache, which is already a classic. Art
🙏
Dear count, Full agreement - was unsure at beginning but the SD43 had been growing on me. The red detailing is charming and reminiscent of past reds … and the slightly bigger size makes it more of a tool and less dress-y IMHO Best, Jerome
Three great vintage reissue choices…
That will most likely become classics in their own right, and the Traditionelle, which is one of those modern designs likely to become future classics 👌🏻👏🏻
Maybe ...
this one has some chance at becoming a future classic. Ultimately it's all in the eye of the beholder ... 🤷♂️ ...
Have a good weekend!
3706 Fliegerchronograph one of the last true tool pilot made by IWC. Hopefully would fit the theme! ...
IWC produces a fair share of pilots . . .
. . . so there's a better than good chance yours will end up as a future vintage classic. Art
Big congrats samwan! A legendary Rolex which …
… already is a vintage classic today! Enjoy it so much! Cheers! Abel
Of course your Rolex triple-date is a future vintage classic, Sam! How could it be otherwise . . .
. . . when it's already a current vintage classic?
This theme rings a bell…
… and leaves me no choice 😎 The 2005 Blancpain Flyback Split Second A’Toute Vitesse, reference 2086FA-1130, will likely stand the test of time and become a true classic. Cult status may very well be already established, at least for me 😉 Cheers Henrik ...
Wonderful choice dear Henrik! An stunning dial…
A superb timepiece! It’s an strong candidate to became a classic!! Hagwe! Abel
