What are you other hobbies/interests?
Ok, so you are here; we know you like watches.
What else claims a portion of your interest/time?

For me it Photography, cricket and bike riding. Photography is very rewarding, I love doing post processing in Lightroom and photoshop and contribute to photography forums.I have loved the game of cricket my whole life and spend a lot these days of time giving back to the game that gave me so much.I do love getting out on my road bike but its not happening enough at the moment-on holidays after next week so will get more of a chance then.
Regards Cam
Watches
Tudor Pelagos, Omega Speedmaster 3510.50, Oris 1965 Diver, Tissot Visodate, Junghans Max Bill Auto, Helson Blackbeard, Seiko PADI Turtle, Tag Heuer F1

Do you worry, when posting your stuff online, about people using your images without consent? Do you watermark them or choose not to, and why?

Books, books and more books. And surprisingly, I do read them

I have a couple of others, but they're going on eBay soon. Along with a few of the typewriters. Aside from the space that this stuff can take up, I've decided to keep a few typers because they write nicely and a few of the others are beautifully designed.
Here's what a 1928 Royal Portable looks like. Types like an old farm tractor, but its looks are through the roof.
And a 1936 Smith-Corona Standard. Looks like Capone's coffin
Things got out of hand pretty quick after these two, which is why I'm scaling the collection down a little.
Teeritz, I can't remember if I already told you...my grandfather used to work for Smith Corona.

Yes, I remember you telling me. That was the 20th Century equivalent to working at Apple, except without the tattoo-sleeved hipsters.

I've got about 100 modern first editions that I'd collected over the years in a bunch of boxes, covered in bubble wrap at my parents house. I just don't have the room in my place, and I feel like they're safer there. Maybe I need plastic tubs...

Mainly photography but also music. Used to do a lot of road cycling but not so much anymore. I was getting out on the mountain bike once a week, but that's on hold temporarily.
