Haha I can imagine that is where I will end up! lol smile8.gif
 
But I actually do find it interesting, the way different people think about this sort of...collecting. Was gonna write madness but not ready to take the first step I guess ;)
 
It has think it has alot to do with how you look at watches and your taste in watches.

If you can marshall even the slightest bit of self-control, you will do very well as a "collector".  (I also stay away from white dials - mostly because I find them harder to read - but I DO like that Fortis with those blue hands!)

We are all addicts and if you are looking for rationale for how we justify buying another watch, I think this just might be the wrong forum.Bouncy.gifYou will buy the white and then down the road you will say, "boy, I really would like a black one to wear with this jacket" and then it begins. I say this based on my past experience and my 3-4 dozen watches (I don't count them, but my wife can tell you exactally how many) and my failure to curb the habit. crap.gif
I agree....I dont try to rationalize what watch I am buying...I just know I have to buy it if I like it.  I like the white one, but  you might find yourself getting the black down the road.  I guess it's like women and thier shoes & purse'sgoofy.  I know I got hooked and there is no saving me nowcrap.gif

Haha I know the feeling slinky! Thats basicly what happened with me and the enzo, just knew I had to get one! =)

So I've been in contact with cnmark about getting one of the fortis watches. Anyway I got to thinking about what other watches there are there are in that pricerange.

So what gems do you think I might be missing with the pricetag around $1300 give or take $100 ?

You know I like fortis and enzo, I like the flieger look in general I guess, and I like GMT's. I've been looking att Ball too, but I'm not sure if they might get too spaced out in the long run. Like the gmt-model with wide tubes though.

Take the left one with the white lume.

It is fantastic for a night flight/drive, tested and proven:)
