What next?
Hi all,I have been very fortunate to get good advice and suggestions from all the experts of this great forum. My watch collection currently consists of BLNR, Speedy, Sub-C and latest addition Ti44 which was my first AP. I have found myself wearing the Ti44 all the time and really love this watch. It is comfortable and accuracy is spot on.I have set a certain limit for my collection and I am considering the following options (I am not considering ROs or Pateks at the moment):1) Trade my Ti44 for Ti Schumi and be done with it (only 1 AP+current watches)2) Keep the Ti44 and add an AP Diver for variety (15710ST), possibly adding RO (15400st) later on3) Keep the Ti44 and add another 44 novelty (new ceramic, FC or 26401ro; which one?)As the Ti44 and Ti Schumi are a bit similar (at least from a distance), I am wondering whether it is worth of spending such a premium.

Considering my first Patek - Input please!
Hi guys and gals,I've been voraciously collecting Tudor for a number of years now. I still don't know how or why I became so infatuated with the brand, but I'm getting to the point where I think diversification is necessary. There are still a number of Tudor grails I'm after, but they are not easily found so I need to wait and hunt to find desirable examples (7924, eagle beak, homeplate). Lately I've found myself looking st complications from JLC, IWC Mont Blanc and obviously Patek. I am considering the new IWC annual calendar w blue dial, but my heart and gut are stuck on the 5960/1a. Is this a good first Patek? Any input about complications in general? Any other Patek models I should consider? Other brands? Thanks!!
