Your favorite white-faced watch?
Hi!

As the topic reveals, I'm interested in hearing which white-faced watch is your favorite?

The only white-faced watch I have is the Omega Aqua Terra 8500, which I like but I'm starting to feel that it's pretty boring-ish, so looking for inspiration here.

Many great watches!

I really like the portuguese and the Linde Werdelin, wish the portuguese was somewhat cheaper though.

How much is the LW?

My favorite white faced watch is my deceased grandfather's 1874 Elgin HH Taylor RR pocket watch. Pop started working on the old Virginian RR in 1898 and this watch was the one his father gave him for his work watch. Pop retired in 1948 after a 50 year career on the railroad. During his career he had 3 Elgin pocket watches and I have his first two.

This watch has been restored and keeps RR spec time today. Needless to say is a very special watch to me. Cheers, Bill P.

All of my current white dialed watches...









What's my favorite? Excluding my great grandfathers 1917 pocket watch, of my modern watches would probably say the Zenith followed closely by the Omega.
