I'm not a watch guy, but this is spectacular. Pretty much all my favorites in one pic.

I would kill for that Lange Up / Down.

What is the case size - 37mm?

Yep, 36 or 37mm depending upon how you squint at the ruler.

I'd be afraid of snapping a 38mm Ultra Thin in half.

Can you post your address, the times you won't be at home, and your safe and alarm codes, if applicable?

I'll leave the Paneri's - they are too big for my skinny wrists . . . .

ended up on plain black straps.
The 40mm belongs to my wife.

Here's the full extent of my collection. Nothing too flashy but all good value for the money. Clockwise from the top we have Limes Pharo Automatic L.E., Oris TT1 diver, Chronomatic Explorer (eBay brand, the look is that of the Steve McQueen Rolex Explorer from the 70's) and finally the Sinn 203 Arktis on a kevlar strap.

Thanks, it is my favourite. Can't wear it with suits to work though so I am hoping to figure out what my next acquisition to wear with suits could be. The Limes is OK and what I most often wear to work, beautifully well built for the price, but it's a little lacking in personality.
