    Greetings from a new member

    Good Afternoon all,

    I have been lurking for a while and after joining a week or so ago thought id introduce myself.

    I do not have many watches at the moment but hope to expand my collection over the next few years, more on that later.

    Here is a pic of my Omega PO:



    .... and my quartz Tissot



    Watch wise, over the next year or two id like to get:

    - Dress watch - something along the lines of a JLC Master Control
    - Birth year watch - Speedmaster Pro or Heuer Monaco (inspired by Bootsy)
    - Something to have a go at modding myself - Seiko 007/9?

    Many thanks
    Joe

    Thanks Mark - the pic is fairly poor - this one is slightly better.

    Re: Greetings from a new member

    This must be the time of year for lurkers to introduce themselves :)

    Love the knowledge I'm gaining from all you knowledgeable people. I've only got a small collection that has just happened over the past few years.

    Latest purchase about a year ago, a Breitling Navitimer, just after a complete impulse purchase from Harrods, a Blainpain Leman Flyback. At the time I knew nothing about them :shock: My first decent watch (for me anyway) a Raymond Weil Parsifal. I'll post pictures when I have more time.

    Fancy a Cartier or Omega sometime in the future, but I'm sure you guys will guide me in the right direction, getting tempted by Sinn with all the good comments they get.

    Here's to more posting

    Jon
