I used to be pretty into watches. Haven't bought one for a few years though.

I switch between these four...

L to R: Omega Seamaster auto, IWC Portuguese chrono, Rolex Submariner, Jaeger-LeCoultre Master Moon

I would love to have this as my next timepiece:

Hublot Aero Bang:


Only made as a 44mm now. If they make a 38-41mm, I'll be all over it. My wrists are small and never been a fan of big watches.

The IWC is my favorite of the four. It's a really nice watch. All four have their different appeals, but all-around the IWC's size, quality, elegance & quality make it my favorite.

I'll add my Oris to the pictures if it ever comes back. I sent it in for band repair and they sent it to effing Switzerland for factory service. It's been six weeks.

My next purchase is a nice Hamilton. They aren't a big name, but they make some very nice automatic pieces.

That's a pricey piece! On of the last family owned watch companies in the world. The Aero is very similar in design the the Audemars Royal Oak collection. Beautiful time pieces!
