    You have $100k to spend on a new watch collection...

    Let's play a game.

    You have $100k to spend on a new watch collection. What would you get? (Remember: this thread will be useless without pictures!!)

    RULES:
    - To keep things simple, you must use RRP.
    - Watches must be current models and you must buy new

    My answer:

    ...because it's amazing and I've always wanted one. Although I'd probably rotate, I dare say this would get a lot of daily wear.

    While my favourite watches are both around the 100k region, I think given that budget I'd go for a selection:

    PP 5711


    AP 15400


    JLC Duometre Moonphase


    Linde Werdelin Oktopus Tattoo


    Anonimo Polluce on bracelet as a daily wearer.

    That's just over $25K and I would be more than content. If I could get a Kari Voutilainen with the remaining money, I would, otherwise, I'd be set.
