    What a difference a year makes

    It's just over a year since I joined this forum, and a year to the day since I started my "Hello I'm a new member" thread. I came across it a few weeks ago when trying to locate another thread of mine, and I noticed something remarkable. In amongst me posting photos of my collection as it was back then, I wrote a few words about the watches I was hoping to go after in the future:

    Well, a year has passed, and I think this photo says it all! I think 2016 might be time to try Rolex - either a blue dialled Milgauss or the rhodium dialled 114300 39mm OP.

    Yes I have certainly seen how this hobby can be draining on ones finances. No grand three watch plans this year, and I think if anything major comes along one or two of the other pieces in the collection will have to make way as I'm certainly approaching critical mass. But for now these three are keepers.

    Well done on sticking to your plan. That is a lovely selection of watches and it's nice to see the Bell and Ross in there too, I haven't seen these watches mentioned too much in threads I've read.

    What image host do you use? I have seen several posts criticize Photobucket, which is my current host, and having started using it again I see why! I need to get a starting thread like yours up, see how I do sticking to a plan.... Although I don't actually have one at the moment.
