I Like your videos! What do you think about my $24.000 Collection? Wich dress watch should i keep and wich one should go? Dayly: Rolex Oyster Perpetual 116034 with the black Explorer dial. Very rare combination. Sports: Seiko SKX013. Dress: A. Lange & Söhne Saxonia 105.021 Dress: Cartier Diabolo CPCP with big diamonds in the lugs and the crown.
I love that Habring made your list. I have one of their monopusher chronos, and I could definitely see myself adding a Felix. Going to have to research the Credor. :)
1. Rolex exp2 specifically 16570 polar (GADA watch) 2. Cartier Santos 100 solely for water resistance (Dressier watch, but still versatile) 3. Tudor BB DK for diver. Super sharp and stealthy. And lastly, hunt for deals in the secondary market and you can be way below USD 24k budget. I know cause I own all of the above mentioned, and still had enough funds to snag a Panerai PAM111 😉
Do you trust a vintage watch to keep that water resistance? I think thats the only thing keeping me from buying a vintage or neo vintage. I would love to buy one but I fear that the older they get the less reliable that maybe. If you could let me know their own experiences it would be helpful.
Ask the watch shops in your area if they’re able to replace gaskets and pressure test watches. With the right parts and equipment, it’s fairly quick and easy to restore the water resistance of a watch.
That's a pretty top selection. A high complication and a holy trinity for $24k. Well done! I would just swap out the BB54 for a chunkier 41 or GS SBGA (pre-owned to stay under budget)
Tudor pelagos 39. Grand seiko “snowflake”. Omega speedmaster moonwatch, the new one on the sapphire sandwich. Longines Spirit Zulu Time automatic 39mm. You don’t need a daily watch in my opinion with this 4, but if yes, buy a Casio.
Mine is close to that budget: White dial Speedmaster Professional Rolex Datejust 16233 two tone with blue dial from 96’ Cartier tank large (quartz) Omega Aqua Terra Terracotta Brew Metric Retro dial They all get a fair amount of wrist time!
Diver: Omega SMP 300 GMT: Tudor BB 58 GMT Dress: JLC Reverso Chrono: Zenith Rainbow El Primero Daily/GADA: Omega Aqua Terra If you go 2nd hand for these, you will stay well within the budget and probably have some cash left for some funky stuff
For my keepers, I already have 2: Panerai PAM0114, $4,000 Tudor Black Bay METAS, $5,000 Additions: DJ41 Blue Fluted, $10,250 Longines Spirit Chronograph $2,250 Oris Aquis c400, $2500
I can wear anything anywhere with my lifestyle so I’d just get my favorite watches until I reached the limit and find some color and brand variation. Chrono - Omega Speedy pro hesalite Diver - Submariner bluesy Everyday - Grand Seiko SBGA413 Shun bun Beater - get a g shock
A "watch collection" for the average guy is 1. Dress watch with a black leather strap. 2. Causal chronometer with a brown leather strap. 3. Classic Dive watch with a metal strap. 4. An all-black watch, because all-black makes a statement no other watch makes. 5. A tough as nails dirt watch. These 5 will cover any situation you will find yourself in. My five. 1. Cartier Tank American, black dial white hands black later strap. $5,000 2. Breitling Classic AVI Chronograph 42 P-51 Mustang $5,800 ( though the Nevada Grenchen is a great pick as well) 3. Omega Seamaster Diver 300M Co-Axial Master Chronometer 42 MM with the NATO strap. (though the Squal was a great choice too). $5,600 4. Baume & Mercier Riviera Chronograph all black. $4,600, (while you dream of that all-black Submariner or Explorer II). 5. Marathon Navigator steel case with the black NATO strap $978 Total price: $21,978 + tax.
my IWC Pilot's Chronograph 41 (green dial, brown calfskin strap), Explorer 36, and DJ36 blue fluted-motif (fluted bezel, jubilee bracelet) amount to $23,900 in today's MSRP. Add a $100 CasiOak and that's $24k!
Always fun to pretend to be rich 😅 - Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso Duoface (Tribute Duoface Calendar), 12k - Omega Seamaster Aqua Terra Worldtimer, blue rubber strap, 7.2k - Grand Seiko SBGJ219 (dressy Hi-Beat GMT) SBGJ219G, 3.7k - Mido TV Big Date, orange strap, 1k
My picks for 24k £ would be as follows Option 1- VC Overseas Black dial and an Omega CK859. Option 2- Calatrava (6119G) and a BB58 blue dial Option 3- Daytona black dial and an Oris Diver 65
I'm about to sell my CK859. Just had a full Omega service and is in near flawless condition. Full set plus service receipt. Bought from a local Omega boutique.
This is pushing it, but for 24k, I think you could pull off a used Breguet 5707 for around the 15k mark. Then if you can score a ~10k 5817 in either gold (that's probably a dream) or in stainless steel, I'd go with that. You have a complicated travel/dress watch at under 12mm thick with classic Breguet looks. Then you have the marine sports watch with a big date. You've got yourself covered on almsot all fronts...except the flex watch, I guess.
@@lihanou you are right. I find a diving bezel more practical to record time. I use my chronos mostly when I go for a run and forget to charge my garmin
The 3 watches I added to my collection last year fit pretty well into this: Black Bay Pro IWC (silver/blue) 7-day Zenith Chronomaster Black dial tri-color
I definitely have more than 3 watches… Everyone gets tactical when building roadmaps like this, but the actual collecting journey is usually long and winding
I have to spend that amount on my teeth ( yes, I'm British), so even thinking about which watches is more masochism but for everyone else enjoy the dreaming or actually buying.
1. Rolex datejust 1603 with blue dial (5k€) omega speedmaster professional from 1969 (5k€), Tudor black bay chrono pink dial (11k), patek philippe calatrava 4819 (5k€). OK, 2 k more, but I'm not chrono 2 4.
"$24,000 is a healthy but not too unrealistic budget to work with." I may be in the minority but this seems to me to be a bit out of touch with the average watch collector.
Spending $17,000 on a f***ing Rolex “batgirl” is one of the normie things I’ve ever seen. Talk about a dearth of personality. Really the same goes for any Rolex model tbh
How would you do it?
Bank heist… wait, are we taking about getting the 24k or the watches I’d buy with the 24k? 😅
GO 70s chrono daily
Daniel Roth dress
Sinn U50, tegimented if there’s still budget
Do a 3 watch NO limit!
I Like your videos!
What do you think about my $24.000 Collection? Wich dress watch should i keep and wich one should go?
Dayly:
Rolex Oyster Perpetual 116034 with the black Explorer dial. Very rare combination.
Sports:
Seiko SKX013.
Dress:
A. Lange & Söhne Saxonia 105.021
Dress:
Cartier Diabolo CPCP with big diamonds in the lugs and the crown.
Very good video. Well done as always.
A Habring² Felix, Credor Kuon, Tudor Prince DateDay 76214 and Bucherer Manero Peripheral. Well within the budget on C24.
Habring and Credor are true enthusiast picks. The Tudor is a strong all-around watch. But why the Bucherer?
@@Chrono24Official unique iykyk watch i guess
@@Chrono24Official the bucherer has a super cool movement. Automatic with peripheral rotor.
I love that Habring made your list. I have one of their monopusher chronos, and I could definitely see myself adding a Felix. Going to have to research the Credor. :)
Two grand on a Longines Spirit and then store it in a twenty two grand watch winder that looks suspiciously like a Jaguar F Type.
1. Rolex exp2 specifically 16570 polar (GADA watch)
2. Cartier Santos 100 solely for water resistance (Dressier watch, but still versatile)

@@Chrono24Official Thank you! I will definitely look into this.
Heuer vintage chronograph, Grand Seiko SBGW, marathon navigator, and maybe a king Seiko vintage for some added fun 🎉🎉🎉
When you mentioned the 3940 I was like "how in the hell does that fit in the $24k budget" also my ultimate dream grail piece btw 😂
Let's play -
6k - Rolex Datejust 1601
6k - Omega Speedmaster
12k - Glashütte Original PanoInverse
Nice switch up at the end with the GO
A: Have $24,000 in disposable income 😐
It can be built over years. I'm not independently wealthy and have a $32k watch collection. Built over about 6 years
work harder, nah mean
That's a pretty top selection. A high complication and a holy trinity for $24k. Well done! I would just swap out the BB54 for a chunkier 41 or GS SBGA (pre-owned to stay under budget)
I would go
1. GMT BLRO
2. Classic Moons watch
3. GS Snowflake
Tudor pelagos 39.
Grand seiko “snowflake”.
Omega speedmaster moonwatch, the new one on the sapphire sandwich.
Longines Spirit Zulu Time automatic 39mm.
You don’t need a daily watch in my opinion with this 4, but if yes, buy a Casio.
I’d argue you’re hitting ‘the daily’ from four angles. Each is specialized but also versatile.
JLC Master Control 8 Days, Girard Perregaux Sea Hawk Titanium 42mm, Omega Museum 1949 Rose Gold Chronograph
Mine is close to that budget:
White dial Speedmaster Professional
Rolex Datejust 16233 two tone with blue dial from 96’
Cartier tank large (quartz)
Omega Aqua Terra Terracotta
Brew Metric Retro dial
They all get a fair amount of wrist time!
Diver: Omega SMP 300
GMT: Tudor BB 58 GMT
Dress: JLC Reverso
Chrono: Zenith Rainbow El Primero
Daily/GADA: Omega Aqua Terra
If you go 2nd hand for these, you will stay well within the budget and probably have some cash left for some funky stuff
My 3 watch collection as a t shirt and jeans guy - Omega Moonwatch, Omega SMP 300, Omega Aqua Terra and a few bucks for a small vacation
For my keepers, I already have 2:

omega smp 300 - sports
tudor bb54 - another sports
gs snowflake - special occasion
Missing a chrono
Maybe swap the smp300 for a speedy?

2. Sport: Breitling Superocean Heritage B20
3. Dress: Cartier Santos Dumont
Nice but what about a 2400 budget?
Longines, NOMOS, Seiko, and Sinn come to mind
The 3 watches I added to my collection last year fit pretty well into this:
Black Bay Pro
IWC (silver/blue) 7-day
Zenith Chronomaster Black dial tri-color
Cartier Tank Must WSTA0041 - goes with anything
Rolex GMT-Master II 116710LN - sports & travel piece
Kudoke 2 - totally underrated conversation starter.
Suggestion: purchase a Vacheron Constantin Overseas generation 3 or purchase an Overseas generation 2 and save the remainder.
Arnold & Son Nebula 41mm on steel bracelet and a Cartier Santos
24k is enough for a 16520 full set?
My daily driver is the Omega seamaster 300 and second less worn in Rolex submariner 41 mm. 2 watches are ok with me.
I have an old box i found it after my grandfather died and it fills with about 200 rare watches and i want to sell this ...can you help me !!😅
You make me feel like i have too many watches at 15. Most expensive at 11k the least expensive 3k
I definitely have more than 3 watches…

Because we’re Chrono24, not Chrono25 😉
@@Chrono24Official ‘…and the last horse crosses the finish line.’ 😂
Or get 1000 $24 Casios.
I could spend all $24k on Tudor: BB 39 champagne dial, BB 58 bronze, Royal 41 two tone, 1926, BB Heritage… so much value, so many watches!
Real man have 1 woman and 1 watch.
Rather get 1 cool watch for 24k than 5 mid watches...

The journey doesn’t have to be all at once. It’s helpful to think about where you’re going before you get there :)
Spending $17,000 on a f***ing Rolex “batgirl” is one of the normie things I’ve ever seen. Talk about a dearth of personality.
Really the same goes for any Rolex model tbh
Wow. Tiny little bit out of touch video my man. But I get that you are in the business of selling watches. Good luck, hope you get many views.
For this hobby 24K isn't a huge amount. Many have collections in the six figures.
@@ThriftyCHNRi think that you are mistaking the exception for the rule.
Not out of touch in the least.
