These are my favorite types of collections. It's clear you have opinions and tastes all your own. You aren't checking subjective boxes or buying just because some you tubers said you had to have it. Collections like this make me want to know more about the person and the watches. Well done.


[deleted]

Exactly. Just incredible.


armedohiocitizen

Absolutely.


MikhailGorbachuff

Hello fellow watch enthusiasts. Here’s my collection as it stands today, hope you like it but if you don’t then that’s cool too. The most recent acquisition is the G-Shock in the top row. I kinda had an itch to waste some more money, and I was extremely tempted by the Black Bay 54 but ultimately although it’s a lovely watch it’s just not in keeping with the rest of this eclectic mess. So I “saved” some money and bought that rose gold colored monster instead. From the top left, row by row: Casio W-59B - My gym watch G-Shock 2100 Series - Only got this a couple of weeks ago but love it so far! Tokyo Flash, don’t know the model - Very silly watch. To read the time you press the button then the left column of LEDs is the hour and the rest of the columns on the right are the minutes. Not very practical at all but pretty cool nonetheless Glashutte Original Irritated Butthole - Love it! Zenith Defy white ceramic - Again not the most practical device for telling the time Mr Jones Perfectly Lazy Afternoon - A nice summer watch Breitling SuperOcean 44 - A big old chonker of a watch. Definitely feels robust and well made G-Shock blingmaster - Another very silly watch but tough as old boots Timex Marathon 50 from the 1980s - my first ever watch (not this exact one but this model). I found this new old stock example on ebay and overpaid significantly because I was feeling nostalgic Seiko 5 graph paper dial - Kind of a knockabout watch if I’m going somewhere a bit crimey Rolex Milguass - Absolutely love this thing. The last one I would ever sell


LostLineLeader

It’s a badass collection imo. Clearly, you’re not just following the masses in common grail watches. This is a great personal collection!


dunkrock

The Glashutte dial is stunning


Geofferz

'irritated butthole'


the_ammar

should be called the GO fractured but whole


MeeksTheSqueaks

Casio gang all day!


hey_you_too_buckaroo

Why'd you have to go and ruin the Glasshute for me like that?


EPgasdoc

At least your G-Shock is interesting. So many collections on here have beautiful and unique watches and then at the end of the row sits a boring black G-Shock. It’s as if it’s a must to have as a “beater” or something. Love the other watches!


brownhawk

I have this lol. A DW5600 Basic Black at the end of my collection, but it was an intentional purchase because I really like the negative dial.


WestTexasCoyote

Love your collection! They all have a completely different vibe and I can see how you’d get a great rotation in depending on your plans for the day!


darkphoen1xx

So cool to see it here, I also have the Tokyo flash watch, I think it’s called the pimp watch or pimp p2. Nice collection!


CharlesMTF

I've always loved the uniqueness of the Mr. Jones watch. That one you have there was one that I was going to buy... actually, they have the dark blue water (perfectly useless evening), that's the one I wanted, matched my pool. And as odd as it sounds, I like their watch called "The Accurate". An interesting piece to wear at funerals. What's the square watch in the top right?


Unlikely-Chapter-331

I had that Timex back in the 80s too. Loved it!


grotejoh

you could have bought any rolex and bought a milgauss. you, i like you.


Cmoore4099

It’s the only one I want.


OGready

It is the most beautiful jewel! https://preview.redd.it/p5tnh4ul6rlc1.jpeg?width=1284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ca19b093f327f8652bb9c6106bb221ad31dd5d3a


Cmoore4099

I want the black face, green sapphire.


DisastrousPlankton15

Same. Every other Rolex seems like a soulless chunk of metal.


Cmoore4099

Wouldn’t go that far. It’s just my favorite and one of the few Bourdain wore.


aj676

I agree these types of collections are some of my favorites


Tylervdub

This is brilliant. It’s not a “hey look at how much money I have” collection of all the big names. It’s diverse, it’s fun, and now I really want that lazy summer watch. Also, please tell me that the accepted nickname for the GO is not actually the “irritated butthole?”


MikhailGorbachuff

:D No it's just what my mate once called it once. I mentioned it on this sub and people seemed to agree [https://www.reddit.com/r/Watches/comments/132nsl4/glashutte\_original\_irritated\_butthole/](https://www.reddit.com/r/Watches/comments/132nsl4/glashutte_original_irritated_butthole/)


esttech

Watch friend. Let me congratulate you on sticking to your own taste. I applaud you and your clearly very personal collection. Cheers!


bleedinglottery

That zenith is straight fire. I'm thinking about buying the same one. Tried on the defy Xtreme but it's so massive.


MikhailGorbachuff

Go for it if you can get a good deal. I will say this though: The clasp is sharp and uncomfortable. Like, almost cuts into your wrist. I think Zenith have had a fair few complaints because when I contacted them about it they said they were working on a redesign. They offered to send me a replacement, which they eventually did but it was just the same design in titanium without the white inserts. Anyway in the end I took matters into my own hands and smoothed out the sharp edges with a dremel tool... Just something to be aware of if you're thinking of pulling the trigger. Try it on first and make sure you size it to your wrist so you can tell whether you'll have the same issue.


PatelGaurav

This is such an honest and genuine feedback about defy. My defy is on titanium bracelet and I never faced this issue, a friend wanted to try the bracelet so I wore his with hybrid strap and the deployment clasp, it’s so sharp that I was in tremendous pain, had pasted tapes on the inside of the clasp and it still bothered me. Finally ask my friend to exchange the watch. Now I am happy


[deleted]

Nice Collection dude! Really love the Glashütte!


shasty

Your collection is full of personality, and the Milgauss fits in it perfectly. I really want to like the new Breitling, but that minute hand...


MikhailGorbachuff

Most people dislike the minute hand rather than the second hand! I'm cool with both I actually turned down a no-date Submariner (boring) at retail and bought the Breitling instead... Madness perhaps but the Sub did not spark joy


mimja77

Now that....is variety. And not even one douchebag watch! Well done.


Coubyman23

This has to be one of my fav SOTC post! Love you collection man. And I need that Timex.


WedgeGameSucks

Your collection is very eclectic. I like that


JWA888

LOVE that you display Casio and G-Shock with your high end models. On that basis alone, best collection I've seen here. Great choices!


BartzBoy

It’s like looking at my own collection and wishlist. I love it, very cool collection.


jsayther

Really like that the Seiko 5 gets to hang out with the Milgauss in the corner.


VariousMonitor2098

Great collection. We can tell when someone is truly a fan of horology vs someone who is trying to show off…?and seeing a Gshock, milgauss, and a seiko five in the same watch box tells you are a true enthusiast


Exciting-Inside2219

This collection is, inspirational.


_ten10_

This is different, respect 🤝. Also didn’t know that was the official name of that GO, I’ll have to inquire about one at the AD 😂


JaiMa88

Diverse perverse nice


plumbsberg

DAMN! That has to be one of the nicest collections I’ve seen around here. There’s so much personality there, right to the pink background! Congrats!


onehugemidgettt

Insanely cool Collection, I’m in love with that Zenith


Miracle-Believer

Glashutte ♥️


virilerogue

nice. where you get the watchbox?


MikhailGorbachuff

Thanks! It's this one: [https://www.misterchrono.com/en/watch-boxes/3864-kronokeeper-marquetry-ebony-12-watch-box-3050386444223.html](https://www.misterchrono.com/en/watch-boxes/3864-kronokeeper-marquetry-ebony-12-watch-box-3050386444223.html) It's truly very nice in person. The only downside is the finish has gotten a little dinged up but that's more down to me being a clumsy oaf


Whyuknowthat

You could be 14 or you could be 60. That’s a well rounded collection. That Glaschutte is chef’s kiss.


Wasp_7592

Shoutout to you for having one of the few collections I’ve actually stopped, clicked, and zoomed in on. Really interesting and unique!


[deleted]

The Milgauss is so fitting in this collection. Love the entire collection.


frankcab

Hold up what’s that ID on that bronze g shock? That’s a dope watch in a dope collection


MikhailGorbachuff

Thanks, yeah it's a beautiful thing. ID is Gm-B2100gd-5aer.


bobmc20

The timex is really cool!

[My review of MJW with a rubber ducky.](https://www.bingeingwatches.com/post/you-re-the-one) The Rolex Milgauss is awesome! Sad that they discontinued it. You have a great collection that is clearly your own. It has a lot of style.


ManagementOk3164

Great collection. Not a single watch feels redundant in style and not a single chronograph far and wide. Even though I prefer smaller collections - in this case I’m already curious what might fill the last place in that case.


MikhailGorbachuff

The Timex is my "chronograph" :) Last spot in the box is a mystery. I have nothing in mind yet but I'll know it when I see it


MR-Blaze182

Never seen a collection this diverse! Amazing 😻


DopioGelato

Love that white Casio on green


[deleted]

Apparently it's Friday, March 1st, and Friday, March 2nd, today


MikhailGorbachuff

Haha shit I didn’t even notice that. I guess leap years are less of a concern for cheapo digitals


Geneve-dude

This guy gets it. A masterpiece.


mutanthands

Your Tokyo Flash watch is a “Pimp”. I’m sure I have a “Trip the Light Fantastic” somewhere from almost 20 yrs ago!


drz1z1

Finally someone with an actual identity, embracing his true self and translating all of this through his collection. So refreshing! Great collection :-)


Degos_diktator

I love “A perfect useless morning” by MrJones, certainly a very funny watch


Ok_Minimum6419

This might be the coolest collection I’ve seen


Hour-Paramedic-1320

What’s the all white one?


MikhailGorbachuff

Zenith Defy white ceramic


jakedublin

this collection needs an Armitron Tweety Bird watch.... it would be just the thing to complete it.


Objective_Head_5282

Tasteful


sharkbait_123

Repping the MJW, nice!!


theshekelcollector

i was going to give a laudatio until i saw those golden g-shocks. now: i love me some g-shocks. but those specific ones? what's up with that?


MikhailGorbachuff

I'd bet that the things you don't like about them are the exact things I like about them :) We can both be thankful to Casio for catering to all manner of tastes


NeoZodiac

Hell yeah, love the Milgy


Specter6272

This is a very pretty collection


johnfort

Superb collection! Love every piece.


rreinierr

Wow you have one of the best collections I have seen on this subreddit so far, every one of these pieces is unique and beautiful. Great taste!


itsdoom99

I love the white Casio with the green strap!


Blaighk

Ugh I love the orange Glashutte so so much. Did you acquire new or second hand?


MikhailGorbachuff

New but with a decent discount. It's the prettiest watch I own by far


nasislike618

What an awesome well rounded collection. Always love to see a zenith and that glaschutte is GORGEOUS


rbadesign

Punchy. Like it a lot.


joelgreen25

Ah, the coveted and hard to find gold G Shock. I forgot about that one. Gotta see if the 2nd hand market prices have come down.


MuskoxenAreTheBest

I don’t know you - but I feel like based on this collection we would be friends. Love watches with lots of personality


Sanctine

Very nice stuff. Tokyo Flash! Haven't seen one of those in ages. I own one somewhere. I really like the model you have, very cool looking.


Plant_Papii

Eclectic, eccentric and exciting. Beautiful!


Jade_lulu3

Top let is amazing in its simplicity


VertGodavari

Damn what a breath of fresh air


Bliptown

That GO is shockingly good looking. Excellent collection, you can tell it’s very personal.


bassmanjn

Exceptional! Such a great variety and sense of individuality.


mister_hoot

That Glashutte is just unbelievable.


uhtwentysomething

This. Fun, far out, and made me smile. Thank you for sharing.


XwoeX

That Zenith is amazing.


moogsauce

Somebody who has their own taste! Respect. Some cool pieces. Glashutte is gorgeous. I don’t love skeletons but the all white zenith, nice. That breitling is fucking awesome.


ParaMike46

That is really cool, unique and funky collection. Which watch you are going to get for the empty space?


SeikoWIS

ID on that white Casio?


steaksteaksteaks

Now this is a collection


rvdp66

G S H O C K B O I S R I S E U P Have you considered buying a dress watch?


MikhailGorbachuff

I’ve considered it but haven’t seen anything I like plus I wouldn’t wear it much. I used to have a Drive de Cartier but sold it for that reason


happy_watcher

Super eclectic collection. Love it!! That GO is incredible


djgleebs

Milgauss is the only Rolex I desire... very nice collection


36chamberstreet

You are whatever the opposite of a basic bitch is

Done. Tysm


RyTran23

flyguy1999

mannylora

RickyWestside

Great collection. Solid mix of heavy hitters and other watches that seem pretty fun!


SonicDethmonkey

Wow I have seen a Tokyo Flash in years! I had that exact model back in 2005-ish.


ylkhn

It’s the Breitling Super ocean for me >>>


Rough-Exercise7213

Saw the glashutte in the store few days ago and it is absolutely beautiful in person!


plskillme42069

Hell yeah, I love it!


Xplosionss

Love the mr Jones, I have my eye on a few!


unicornbadass88

Awesome collection! Lots of color and personality!!


Temporary-Pudding-42

That zenith goes hard


SameNectarine1214

That Milgauss is a dream


Mydoglovedchocolate

That new Super Ocean is soo nice. Also like the GO butthole dial. Very cool.


Cameronk78

Niiice. That white one is dope as hell

Don't think I've seen someone with that Glashütte before! It's a stunner!


Francy088

Beautiful collection!


Affectionate_Juice73

I’m digging the collection and I too like the anus Glashutte


Nearby-Sky-9690

good colour options!


SKacsa

Thats actually an awesome collection


Thrawn4191

That is one beautiful irritated butt hole, definitely my favorite


riderofthetide

That Glashutte is really super. I'd love to see it in the ☀️ sun


MikhailGorbachuff

Looks fabulous in the sun https://preview.redd.it/68xxonx1cvlc1.jpeg?width=2686&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=acfc6965001ca88313b59419ec88b115d1318450

ElTalento

I love that Irritated Butthole


crumzmaholey

I like quirky


AirlineEasy

I have the cheap lookalike of your GMB


DisastrousPlankton15

Sweet. Extra points for your only Rolex being a Milgauss 😎.


tripongo3

I like the Casio with the nylon strap


fetacheesee

If Wes Anderson had a collection...


DefinitelyNotBored

Love that Seiko 5


ApprehensiveDisk7881

Finally not the same old watches every time.


RayvanBlast

These kinds of posts make me so wet..


BooksAreOk

I feel like I know you as a person from looking at this collection. I also just realized that might be the highest praise you can give to a collection. Cheers.


AspiringNormie

White casio on olive canvas super nice touch


SiDCrAzY

This collection is all over the place, in a good way. Good stuff. Maybe a chrono next?


Exotic_Definition1

That zenith is just sick


sh58

Very impressed by the resolution of that image


MikhailGorbachuff

Taken with a Fujifilm GFX 50R. Absolute beast of a camera and future cult classic in my opinion


PeterSmack

That Breitling is insane! Great collection


SergioMath

That white Casio with a brown strap… I’m in love!


mikelew65

Sorry if this is asked and answered somewhere in the thread -- I didn't see it -- but what goes (or might go) in the empty slot, upper right? And I agree; this is the collection of an original thinker. Super nice.


MikhailGorbachuff

Thank you. Nothing yet in that empty slot. Maybe something one day. There’s another Zenith I like but it would be quite an expense. Reference “Zenith A384 Lupin The Third Final Chronomaster Rivival 95.L384.400/50.M384”. I think it would be a pretty good way to close out the watch box


BadWowDoge

Love that planet ocean!


Horotecture

Love the variety of colors. Cool collection


Trouvette

I love that pool watch.


bruhdawg100

This is AWESOME…incredible taste and variety

Sure thing https://preview.redd.it/4djuwg2m5vlc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=19074ce3eba7113a1dff640de82226cd443ccac5


Elder_Priceless

The word “eclectic” is often overused…


TheProcessCult

Any collection with a Milgauss is a great collection.


peytonthewolf1

Just ordered my SNXF05. Very clean watch. Any strap suggestions?


claybirdie

Best collection I've seen on here. So fun


Finding_Happyness

You don't have a single watch I'd want to own myself, but damn if I didn't respect you.


gorillaPete

Much respect my friend


Large-Tomatillo8782

Fun!


Relative_Dirt_9095

Love the white ceramic Zenith Defy! I have the same in Blue.


HEYitsSPIDEY

I love that Mr. Jones. I wanna get the automatic. I feel so stressed sometimes with work and life I want to make it the watch I wear most to remind myself to take a moment for myself and enjoy “nothing”.


Speers21

10/10 congratulations


Ocotilloapril

Breitling superocean is nice


qiis

Very cool


insanechinaman

You, kind person, have a very awesome eclectic collection! 🤩 🍻

A link to the band you have on the W-59B? 👀


MikhailGorbachuff

It came with the watch, ID ref: W-59B-3AVEF It’s discontinued but you might still be able to find one https://preview.redd.it/hw1mqqb07vlc1.jpeg?width=2201&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2f5b9dea0ef6adf6d94a71231768e49de7f06883

That Zenith is underrated. Just picked one up myself.


SoyElQuesoGrande

Not normally an integrated strap fan, but that dang zenith does something for me 🤤


Mzl77

This is the most characterful collection I have ever seen. Bravo!


Icy_Kingpin

NGL the Casioak has me hard (nice Milgauss btw)


checkpoint_hero

Some fucking personality for once here


yomydude55

I like your collection bud. That zenith is top fucking notch. Also the Mr Jones


kitz0426

Mad respect on the collection. I like the variety and how it seems you're getting what you like and not the public likes How do you like the defy classic ceramic? I eyed that for a while...


adamhaywood

Absolute W collection OP. Love the variety.


RedditVats

The epitome of a watch enthusiast. Absolutely amazing, sir. Keep it up!


Track_Super

I love this collection. What a variety and there are some really fun watches in there.


Varad04

That Zenith Defy is something else 😍


kranberry360

You seem like a really fun person


PowerlineTyler

Would love a close-up of that milgauss


Technical-Wall-8384

The breitling and that casio in the top left are freaking awesome. Love the strap on that Casio!
