I've moved onto watches lately Just picked up the orange Seiko on the left My favourite is the Citizen Eco Drive Chrono in the middle And it all started with the Omega Sea Master on the right
Watch porn. That's "watch" the noun not "watch" the verb. http://girards.com/ And enjoy the wonderful background stories (entirely fictional of course) about some of the watches.
I just placed an order for this watch. It's a start up from Melbourne and a beautiful watch in the flesh www.melbournewatch.com.au
Mechanical watch & reasonably priced. You can have one or the other I tried this a few years back. You're not allowed battery powered watches in underground mines with a potential for explosive gases. Closest I came was russian made watches for their military. But they were still hella-expensive and kept terrible time.
Haha, I'm reading up on horology as well but my wife is making sure I don't go down that path. PMs are bad enough she says
Nice! Vintage alarm watches (Seiko Bellmatics, JLC Memovox, Bulova and Citizen WristAlarm) are my Achilles heel
The Citizen Promaster Sensor is one of the best watches you can find! These were around back in the 1990's and were the first of the first! Solid and brilliant inlayed with gold.

Sorry mate, Pierre Cardin is an immediate put off. But maybe only to those who lived it in the 80's. Kind of like Ken Done tea towels. Thanks for posting.
Another Seiko Divers watch lined up for Wednesday And another Citizen EcoDrive Chronograph for next week :lol: OK I'm addicted
No need to be sorry, its still sitting in its original box. Prefer my skeleton watch personally, will put a photo up later
