How I Spent $50,000 Buying Watches 

If you're going to spend $50,000 on watches, you have two different paths from which to choose. First, you can spend it all on a single powerhouse luxury watch: one watch to rule them all. Second, you can break up the money and assemble a small watch collection. The question is, do you want one watch to wear full time or several watches that serve different purposes. Tonight, Tim Mosso explains how he would spend $50,000 buying watches.
A single monster watch has a certain appeal. For one, most people only wear one watch at a time, so any additional watches beyond just the one are sitting idle. And, with some planning, a single haute horlogerie luxury watch might fulfill all of a watch collector's needs. For that reason, Tim considers the Vacheron Constantin Overseas Self Winding with brown dial.
The third-generation Vacheron Constantin Overseas debuted in 2016, and it was easily the most sophisticated Overseas sports watch ever launched. For the first time, manufacture movements, display casebacks, and Geneva Hallmark decoration were features of the Overseas. The Overseas Self-Winding 4500V/110A-B146 with brown dial was only built from 2016 to early 2018, and it is the rarest version of the watch.
While silver, black, and blue dial variants of the Overseas generation III are common, the brown dial watch is exceptionally scarce. That said, this highly valuable variant has the same features as every Overseas Automatic. The 41mm stainless steel case contains a Vacheron caliber 5100 automatic movement. Its 60-hour power reserve, Geneva Hallmark decoration, and five-position adjustment amount to elite credentials.
The exterior of the VC Overseas is as impressive as the inside. 150-meter water resistance surpasses that of the 120-meter Patek Philippe Nautilus and Aquanaut while Audemars Piguet's Royal Oak trails with only a 50-meter rating. Even the Royal Oak Offshore Chronograph is rated to only 100 meters. For good measure, Vacheron uses paramagnetic metal to protect the Overseas' movement from magnetic fields of up to 25,000 amperes per meter.
If you keep only one watch, it needs to be versatile, and the Overseas Self Winding is extremely versatile. Not only is it tough against the elements, but its elegance imparts tremendous potential in formal attire. As a Vacheron Constantin, the Overseas retains the core graces and elegance of the company's legendary dress watches. An Overseas Automatic always looks good in a suit.
Alternatively, a person could buy several watches with $50,000. Tim explains which watches he would collect from Vacheron, Ball, Jaeger-LeCoultre, Glashutte Original, and Zenith.
