Nice!

I assume you've also got a good cell phone for your photos?

I used to wear an Oris Worldtimer for travel. It was a great travel watch with easy to change time and dual time displays on different dials. Now I wear an Apple Watch. Much more flexible. I don’t really wear my mechanical watches much at all anymore. Even my JLC Master Moon, which is a really beautiful watch.

An Invicta mechanical watch my buddy gave me last year. Used it on multiple dives and my everyday/travel wear with a NATO band.

I had a Traser Watch for over 10 years. Had it for work and travel. Only had to change the battery once They do a bunch of different options but I had the P66 tactical.

I don't travel with a mechanical watch because I don't fancy being robbed or drugged. My favorite travel watch is my Casio G-Shock witch changes time zones as you scroll through city names with the push of a button.

IWC Big Pilot Annular Calendar (ROSEGOLD)

This is my newest addition that I recently bought while in Dubai several weeks ago. This is a limited edition one of 250 that were made and is in solid 18CWT rose gold with a deployment clasp. The IWC Boutique @ the Dubai Mall is their largest one in the world as they get all the best high end pieces. I wore this home from Dubai without getting a single scratch on it..
