Came across 3T when doing research for my latest acquisition,  1963 Seagull Chinese AirForce Re-issue. A big thanks to everyone (esp.Pacifichrono) for his pics of this beautiful watch.  I suppose you folk can tell a bit about a person from their collection, so this is what I have.

Omega Speedmaster          3510.50,
Omega Seamaster              Professional 2262.50


Omega Ladies                     Gold Plated with 625 movement
Tag Heuer                           Monaco Re-issue Cal 6,
Tag Heuer                           1500 Professional 925.213G,
Tag Heuer                           1500 Professional WD1221-K-20 (have new Movement,   Hands & Crown to fit this one.)  Waiting for knowledge & confidence.
Seiko Diver                         6309-729B, Original as far as I can tell.
Jorg Grey                            6500 Barrack Obama watch
Seagull                                1963 Chinese Airforce Re-Issue
Rip Curl                               S/S Rider 17534 Quartz
Delage                                 Felsa 4007N movement (otherwise unknown to me)
         and a few bibs and bobs...........
Grail = Heuer Carrera or any Heuer for that matter.

I’ve had the RipCurl for about 10 years and know nothing about it, except that it is branded by an Australian Surfing Company and it is unbelievably accurate, but as with the rest, they have all been purchased in the last 6 months.  Yep, I got the bug and I have it good.  Came here hoping to increase my knowledge and just see where this hobby, interest, obsession takes me.  I’ve started toying with a few old movements and love that aspect of horology ie., the mechanics.  This forum seems a little more mature than most, and that is another reason I was attracted to join.  Thanks to everyone that has posted their wisdom here.   Hope to post to some pics in the future.  Kind Regards to all.

G'day mate, and a warm welcome to our version
of a corroboree. For those not familiar with the word,
it is a ceremonial meeting of Australian Aborigines.

It involves a lot of singing and dancing,were
the performers are decorated in warrior like body
paint. These performances range from the
Balga, Wangga,Lirrga, Junba,
Ilma, JuJu and the KobbaKobba.
The latter are performed in public.

No, I'm not from Australia but I do have relatives
and friends of the family that live there.

Oh,yeah...great selection of watches as well.

Cheers,
Simon
