Hi all,
I'm fairly new to the whole watch collecting/obsessing, and got into it about 4 years ago (although I've always liked watches since I was a kid). Have tried a few brands, but don't have much of a disposable income so have a very humble collection compared to many I'm sure.
At the moment my watch box contains:
Breitling Aerospace e79362
Omega SMP black quartz
Omega Speedsonic
Omega Constellation vintage
Ball Engineer Master 2 Diver
Precista PRS-3
Smiths Everest
Seiko 6602-8050
Seiko 6309-729x
Seiko SKX007
Have been a member of TZ-UK for a few years, which is where I spend/waste a lot of my spare time (oh and also WUS, but don't go on there very much). I must have been on the Breitling Source page hundreds of times when I was obsessing about a B-1, which unfortunately was never purchased, but recently became the happy owner of a pinstrip dial blue Aerospace
Thought that now I actually own a Breitling it was about damn time that I joined this fine forum, especially after the hours I've wasted lurking in the shadows as a guest. It's funny but in the past I'd never thought about owning a Breitling and found the dials too busy, and the cases and bracelets polished looks a bit OTT. But over the years have found a very soft spot for the brand as well as some other models, namely the Yellow Seawolf and the Yellow Emergency, which I think look amazing! Also the more recent Avenger 2 GMT also looks great, and sure I'll pop into a jewellers to see how it wears before long; except this years purchases have to include either a Pelagos or a Speedy Pro (or both); although saying that, the money I'd put aside for one of those purchases did just go on an Aerospace
Anyway, I've rambled on too much already, so look forward to some interesting discussions.
Cheers,
Tris
