Hello everyone, my name is Jerel aka HalifaxNS.

I may pop in with a post here or there so I thought it might be good to do a introduction with a little background.

Iv always liked watches but in the past couple of years iv fallen head over heals in love :P.

It all started when I was looking for a good watch and remembered a watch from my youth that my dad said was like a Rolex, I asked him about it and made him dig it out of storage. After spending 15 years in a box I got my hands on it!! His issued snowflake Tudor (Canadian Navy). It had lots of scratches and no bezel, I got it surviced and replaced the crystal and bezel from Rolex. Also got a knock off bracelet, couldnt justify the cost of original. Researching the watch is what got me hooked on watch forums, great sources of info yourock.gif.









For my next watch I was able to combine my love for Hawaii and watches all in one hand6.gif
Im a big fan of Bathys Hawaii, very good brand. I ended up settling for the rose gold Aquaculture model with a Eta 2892 a2.















As you can see I take too many pics of my watches!! subtlelaugh.gif I need more watches!! incoming is a Halios holotype and a Prometheus Ocean Diver.

Thanks for taking the time

Thanks everyone :D

Your right sooner76 iv noticed a couple so far, I guess the watch world is a small world.

And thanks Ken, as you know you fought the good fight, cool watch or not hand6.gif

Thanks again for the compliment on the pics, real life people tend to think its strange taking pics of watches, oh well.
