    Hi From a New Collector

    I 've owned different watches over many years and I have always admired watches, but I have never actively studied or collected timepieces until just over a year ago. With my wife's blessing, I have finally indulged. I've been on the watchuseek forums for the last year and, thanks to Samanator, I've found this site and look forward to hanging out here.

    From reading other introductory posts, I guess I need to post a picture of my modest collection. Here we go. The Cyma is actually a watch my wife and children gave to me more than a decade ago. It was a wonderful surprise and it is a permanent member.

    A big thank you to shameless for getting my picture upright!

    Thank you. I am having some trouble posting. lol. The watches loaded upside down and the wood bowl isn't supposed to be there. I am unable to delete them and start over, so my apologies.
