SOTC: zivboj March 2023

Post by zivboj »

Looking at a diver next (tossing up between C60 Trident Pro 300 in white 42mm or the C60 Anthroscope GMT not diver i know but still).

The watch case was a valentines gift from my fiancé (taking this as her way of saying "buy a few more watches")

Left to Right:

Tissot PRS516 Quartz:

Had this for 10 years now, parents bought it as a 21st birthday present for me. We come from a immigrant family that moved to Australia around the time of the Yugoslav wars end, so for them this was a huge purchase and itll be a watch that ill never let go of.

Longine Spirit 42mm Titanium:

Career milestone watch, i made it to a high position in the company that i work for and i really wanted a GADA watch that didnt break the bank. Mananged to find a AD in Sydney and fell in love with the size, weight and how versatile it is. Switch it regularly with a brown leather strap and almost feels weight less (titanium is real nice)

The Longines Spirit series is very nice, and good on them for having a quick release system on their bracelets.

A couple of nice watches you’ve got and I’m sure you’ll enjoy deciding what to fill those four empty slots with.

Welcome aboard and also to the rabbit hole that is collecting watches.
Great to see another Aussie on the forum. We are relatively few but active enough....

Either of those CWs would make an excellent addition to the collection.
The Pro 300 is super-slim for the type of watch and on wrist will be very comfortable.
Enjoy!

Welcome to the forum.

That Longines is a watch I’ve admired in the past, great to have a watch with a sentimental attachment as you do with the Tissot.

I’d say your fiancée has definitely given you the green light to get at least 4 more watches to fill those empty slot, hopefully a few CWs amongst them!!
