Hi all,

 

 

  I have been lurking for a few weeks trying to gather information to help guide the purchase of my first automatic watch.  I have found a lot of helpful information in this forum.  Now that I know a little more than next to nothing, I thought I would introduce myself.   Currently I am without a single watch after my casio met an untimely end (my fault, involved some lead weights from a dive belt) and my quartz citizen decided to just die.  That's more than a little bit sad.  I am considering the purchase of two watches, one for everyday wear and one for diving (more on that later as I will post a plea for advice in the general watch forum).  Right now my addictions are reef keeping, diving, soccer, parrots, sighthounds, and wine/scotch.  Maybe I should call them interests….  

 :shock:

 

David

Welcome to 3T, David. Sounds like you are in the market, no? Since you mentioned you're interested in reef keeping you should probably have a Reef Ranger...



Comes in other colors, but as a diver surely you must have the orange...toon1.gif

Thanks Paxman and Skipdawg!  I appreciate the quick welcome.  I have indeed considered the Boschett's.  Do you think I can convince my wife I need one to tell time through the fish tank while I am rearranging corals and doing tank maintenance?

  "But baby I need to tell time so I can accurately match dawn and dusk cycles on my lights so my corals and fish are happy!  And it's called a reef ranger, I mean come on!"

  Maybe I need to come up with something more convincing...  Oh, and I have posted my questions to the general forum

 

David

David...welcome to 3T...and of course you can convince your wife...the question is always, "Would you rather be right, or would you rather be married?" :D
