    Hello from Florida

    Thank you Samanator for showing me your new fun house. I hope I can contribute in some way.

    About 2 years ago I decided to cool off on watches and I sold off nearly everything - Omega, Ball, Seiko, etc. Now, like a typical addict, I have fallen off the wagon and I feel the itch. I ordered a Squale.






    Chuck

    Hi Chuck,

    I'm glad you accepted my invitation to come join us. I think you'll find some old friends here and quite a few new ones. Can't wait to see pictures of your Squale here.
    Cheers,

    Michael

    Tell everyone you saw it on IWL!

    Welcome to IWL from a fellow Floridian! (I'm in the Orlando area, myself.) And yes, which Squale have you ordered?

    Welcome! I understand the tidal pull of that addiction. I think I'm done with acquisitions, I start tuning away from the forums, then I get bored or newly interested in something watch-related, and boom... I'm back and shopping for something new and rare. I hope you can enjoy this place while avoiding too many expensive incoming.
    Too many watches, not enough wrists.
