Hello everyone!  I thought I would introduce myself. I have been a member at 3T since April 2011 and have been lurking about admiring the amazing watches here since then. I have been waiting to post until I had a reasonable collection and some decent pictures. I realized that with my photography skills I will be waiting for years and my collection will always be modest, so here I am. Ever since I could remember, I have been interested in Divers, got my first Timex Diver back before High School in the mid 1970’s just before the digital watch craze.  I wore it for several years but did not know it would need service. After it broke down, digital watches were everywhere - so I owned a succession of cheap digital/quartz watches. A couple of years ago, for no particular reason, I started noticing watches, and bought a Citizen eco drive Chrono. Now I own a Hamilton Khaki Navy 3T, a Hamilton Khaki Pilot, and a Benarus Moray III Red Dial with Arabic numbers. I also thought I might try to build a vintage watch from parts so I have acquired a NOS Gallet Multichron 12 case and NOS Dial and will be attempting to build it up from there. I live in Southern California with my lovely wife and 4 kids and look forward to seeing you all here.

Warm welcome to 3T Ron!   Great to have you! thumbsup.gif

Very nice lineup of pieces you have there...I especially like the Hamilton and the Moray (have not seen the red dial much at all...looks great!).

Feel free to post often!
