New to the forum and fairly new to collecting/appreciating watches as well - at the moment focused on vintage watches.
Got this less than 2-weeks ago!

Took the opportunity to buy this one back. Popped it on a generic rubber while I resized the bracelet, I think I could be tempted to invest in an OEM.

The original strap monster!

Arrived from a Italy today...
Don’t be cruel...
Acquired this strap and fitted by local AD today
Always fancied a blue dial watch, the watch had a steel bracelet but saw LukeBirds deployment strap on a thread last week and fell in love with it
Took a punt and well delighted
Thanks to LukeBird for the assistance in pointing me in the right direction

My today's arrival on a strap that I thought could allow me to dress it down a tonne in a semi-classy manner. I think it's working.

Just arrived from our very own Snoodles. Beautiful watch. Terrible photography skills as usual

Arrived today courtesy of an old school gentleman Dick Browne
Popped it on a strap for the moment until I source a 5 digit bracelet for it
Dull old day, but this rolled in yesterday to brighten it up. Just need to get the right strap on it. Currently on a Sinn rubber (from my ezm2), but thinking black leather. Looks great on almost any NATO too

Just received this Damasko from a forum member.

Arrived yesterday from a forum member. It actually looks better than I expected.

Very nice Devonian. Now that you've added it the white can make way for something else. Let's see what Tuesday brings.
Not exactly a new incoming but an incoming of sorts. Bought this in 2005. I was on a Caribbean cruise and stopped off in Belize. There was a new store that had opened that day and I paid £750 for this the automatic version. Turned out on subsequent cruise stops and looking in different stores that they charged me for the battery version and I should have actually paid £900. I wore it for sometime but eventually bought a yachtmaster and ended up selling it to my colleague. He didn’t particularly look after it, which weirdly kind of annoyed me a bit, so three or four years ago I bought it back off him. One of my sons has had it and worn it for a couple of years and when he bought his own watch, it’s been unworn since. Sent it off to Omega for a service and to replace a few bits. Very pleased with the result.

Another SPB149 joins the forum. Early days but enjoying it so far, though the infamous bezel alignment issues are present - even if minimal.

Smaller than I thought, but very striking and most comfortable.
And for you Rolex fanboys, something new for you to collect.

My new addition today. Always wanted a pepsi.

Yeah, definitely smaller-wearing than the Sub/GMT/ExpII, but my wrist is on the small side (6.75") so still fits well. Really enjoying the mix of the white and black. [I was actually surprised at how small it looked when I first tried it last week, but I didn't want to pass it by as I've been on the list for a few years now.]
Two brilliant incomings. Well done both! I once tried the ceramic Daytona and also felt it very comfortable, more comfortable than other oyster bracelet watches, perhaps it is lighter?
Pepsi is striking and I think one of the most attention grabbing of the current lineup.
Cograts Seadweller and juke.
Just arrived today and looking good. Not me.....the watch.![]()
This arrived from SC today. Very impressed so far!

Can’t beat a Damasko, a pair of new arrivals even more eye candy. Love them

Hi,
A few years ago, I let go of my Amvox 2 Black concept to fund another watch. I have been regretting it ever since.......
An opportunity came up for the DBS version and I took it! When I first decided on the Amvox 2, I was torn between the Black Concept and the DBS. I thought that since I have given the Black a go, why not try the DBS this time!?
Quick iphone pic.
Been great to have the Amvox 2 back on the wrist. It is so surprising that it is a watch born almost 15 years ago! It still looks so young, sharp and fresh (in all its iterations)! Very comfortable to wear despite the large size. So pleased I have a member of the Amvox family back!
A question about the chronograph function. I recall the minute counter is what we call a “semi-instantaneous” jump. What about the half hour counter? I notice it seems to move in little steps (as opposed to a distinct jump every 30minutes) as the minute counter elapses. Is that right?
BW,

Oh well, it's just another watch

Incoming, apparently it's a Zodiac Homage, but then I've never heard of Zodiac
