    New Member from Colorado

    First, thank you to Phil (aka: deCompression here at IWL), for introducing me to the IWL forum (So this is where a great number of knowledgeable WIS departed to).

    I've only just started to look at the forum, but REALLY like what I see in terms of the philosophy of IWL, and the great forum content that I've just barely scratched the surface of. I recognize several members from WUS already, and look forward to meeting more members and contributing positively to the great forum here (and overall enjoyment of the hobby). I go by the same username over on WUS and 3T - I'm a moderator/admin over on 3T, where I met Phil.

    I tend toward Diver style watches for the most part, but also enjoy Pilot/Flieger style watches as well...everything from Japanese to German to Italian to Swiss, including some larger established brands and a bunch of small boutique brands.

    Cheers,
    Chris

    Welcome to the forum, Chris! Pretty chilled here; we like it.

    I posted once or twice on 3t when I had my Dievas back in the day I remember.

    Watcha got in your arsenal then?

    Thanks for the warm welcome Geoff! (what Dievas model did you own?...some great models in the lineup)

    What do I have in the arsenal?...well, like most WIS I seem to be in a 12 step program in which I have not made it past Step 1. Too many overall, with a need to downsize a bit in 2016 being the goal.

    Photobucket is down today for some reason today, but some of the recent watches getting the most wrist time include Seiko (the new Turtle, MM300, Tunas, 6309, 6105), Benarus Vintage Moray, Aquadive, Vintage VDB, Doxa, H20/Helberg, Halios, Rolex Seadweller, Omega SMP, Anonimo, Girard Perragaux Sea Hawk Pro, Prometheus, Aegir, my first Zixen (DSR) to name several.
