I have a dilemma so I'm asking the TRF experts. I must admit over the years I have flipped my fair share of Rolex, Panerai and Omegas. I now find myself with a SS Sub C and a GMT II Pepsi. I have been thinking for some time now about adding a third watch to the line-up. I am considering something on the dressy side and will consider brands other than Rolex. I am not into TT or YG Gold. Look great on others just not me. Pics would be appreciated. Thanks

Price?

If 12k, then SS Daytona. If 37k, then Smurf or RG Daytona. If 50k+ then DD2 or SkyD or Patek 5980.

If beyond that, then you're a lucky man.

How about a DJII?
smooth bezel, white or silver dial...

How about a Jaeger Lecoultre Tribute to 1931 Reverso?

Do you like red gold? JLC has nice options.

AJMarcus · 22 January 2013, 03:02 AM

Wow! That JLC is awesome. I must say I personally find the rose gold more palatable than YG.

JLCs are incredible value.

JLC's rose gold is fantastic and as Mike already mentioned are an incredible value. Look for anything in the Master Ultra Thin line and you can't go wrong.

I'm an absolute sucker for the Ultra thin Moon:

Another watch I love is the Grand Seiko SBGH022. Performance wise this watch may possibly outshine all others in it's price range but it is pricey (MSRP 30K):

If you can hold out for awhile until they're for sale JLC just brought back their Calendar with the original dial layout. The wait period would allow you save your pennies if you haven't already:

Thanks....I think I'm going to go to my AD and check out the JLC 967. Anybody have this model? Impressions and pics would be appreciated. Also, can I expect any discounts on JLC? BTW, also, thinking about a Cartier Tank.
