Thread: Hello and thank you

  1. #1

    Hello and thank you

    Thanks for the add. This seems like a very civilised place to loiter and drool without offending anyone. I've frequented another place for a number of years, and hope to find polite camaraderie here...

    Here's my current SOTC:

    Thank you! That's pleasing actually as I always thought my tastes were rather conservative - I only recently added the two blues, the Vostok I've always liked and the Seestern with a view to getting a Doxa down the line (I wasn't sure whether I would like the case - still not sure)... The Lego was a sub-£10 watch I couldn't resist which turned up this morning and turned out to be massive, but will do as some mantel art next to my box.

    and that's a very nice, universal collection you have. What's the no-logo one in the lower right of the box (and also the one below it, outside of the box)?

    yes was thinking more like russian, germany, swiss Chinese, etc and types too ... so yes nice mix of type and price points too ... no swatch x omega

    I have been trying to down size for years so now around the 12/15 watch collection but mine's more themed then I thought maybe in some ways mil,bling,vintage, seems to be it
