That's a nice collection, audio enthusiasts have great taste :) Speedmasters are a particularly lovely watch.
I have a Rolex Submariner which I bought in 1970 for the princely sum of £84. I couldn't afford the model with date as that was £96. It now needs a full service which is likely to cost £500 or so. It now resides in my sock drawer.
I also have an Oris along similar lines to the Submariner but with a date. Around 6 months after I bought this it was running slow, so Oris rebuilt it and it now runs very well, losing just one second/day. A beautiful thing with a crystal back, so you can see the mech.
A vintage Roamer Stingray automatic. Three vintage Omegas, an automatic Geneve, a Megasonic, and a Quartz De Ville. Two Seikos, a 5 and an Alpinist.
