Love the Mark 20 in white. Already have the green. Should I get one?

The one in white is sadly not available in the bracelet which is sad. What do you guys think?

I have attached my watch collection above

Other option is the Explorer (first) if I get it or the Carrera chronograph glassbox or IWC Portuguese in white 40 mm

An expedition to search for the thylacine?

Please help me in locating the best place that I should start from. It will be 2 of my friends from Britain, one from Italy and me (I am from India but live in Italy). I have been really invested in what colossal labs are doing and have spoken to people who claim to have seen the thylacine back in the 80s. I know mainland is not the right place to start though the only footage that convinces me is the Doyle footage from the 70s taken in Australia. What do you guys think about searching PNG and South Tasmania? I have gathered around 300k Euros solely for this expedition and would really like some help in planning on where to start.

Would love to hear about if you have ever spotted the Tiger in the past or if you have met anyone who has claimed to have seen it

In the market for a new chronograph. What do I buy? Torn between options

Tried on various ones and really liked the black bay chrono and the Carrera glassbox. Also tried on the navitimer which I didn't like and the speedy. I don't like Omega as a brand and the millions of iterations of the speedy. Also I am in consulting and almost everyone around me wears and Omega of some sorts so I honestly want something different. What are the other options and what would you guys suggest? Pretty confused about what to get.

Budget is around the price of a new glassbox or a Speedy or BB56.

Since this is my first chrono I also want it to win in terms of the brand perception. What's the better brand in terms of positioning etc

Do you guys think the thylacine still exists in PNG?

I've been talking to people who run thylacine awareness groups and many of them swear they have seen one. Idk because many people online might not be trustworthy but are there any credible sightings? The only footage I find believable is the Doyle footage from 1973 and that too was taken in main Australia and not Tasmania.

[Question] Tudor chrono vs Carrera vs the Omega Speedy

I know a lot of people will go for the speedy and consider it to be a no brainer but it is such a common watch. I see everyone wearing an Omega and Tag every office I go to and many of my friends have bought omega to just get on the list for Rolex. Sure Omega makes great watches and the Speedy is iconic in its own right but there are like a million iterations for them. The black bay is chunky and thick but I like the design. I also like the Carrera and it's a historic watch as well. So out of these three chronos what would you choose? Also wondering if tudor is a rung lower when it comes to the brand name? I heard the movement on the tudor is a B01 with a silicon balance spring so the movement objectively seems to be great.

Customer Service and long term owner experience with IWC

So honestly contrary to what people say I have had a great experience with Rolex and have found their watches to be really durable. However I am in the market for a new watch and I was planning to buy the IWC Portugieser. After reading some comments online on reddit I heard a few horror stories about the customer service of IWC and the Mark 20 movement. I have the Mark 20 and it's working just fine and the dial and the watch is pretty great. However Im just scared of buying another IWC if the customer service is bad. God forbid there is some issue with the watch.

I've also heard that I'm general Swatch group has excellent customer service so maybe an Omega could be a good addition to the collection? Find omega to be really boring but long term service and satisfaction is one of my main purchase criteria

I do know some people at Richemont and tbh the experience at Cartier is top notch but I can't say the same about the specialist watchmakers

I want to know what your experience with IWC has been like?

SOTC and what watch to add next guys?

These are the watches that I currently own. What do you guys think?

Should I add a Panerai? Don't like dress watches so am looking at something sporty. Maybe an explorer? Or an OP or a Panerai? What about a Santos?
