Hello, fellow watchnuts. Thanks for having me here do indulge my horological fantasies (way outside my budget). Current inventory: 1. Omega Seamaster Automatic - Bond, non-coaxial version (1993 college graduation gift from the parents) 2. SAR Marathon Automatic (purchased six months ago, recently sold) 3. Omega Constellation Automatic (1965) (inherited from dad. This one stays in the safe and only comes out on special occasions) 4. Seiko Kinetic Diver (bought on ebay 10 years ago. probably my most reliable watch. never had a single issue with it). 5. Casio G-Shock Analog (purchased while working for the CIA in law enforcement in 1997. positively bombproof) 6. Nike Oregon Altimeter WA0035 (ebay purchase two years ago. a very unique look wtih a green strap and negative face). 7. Invicta 3076 Swiss Diver (another ebay purchase three years ago. one of the beefiest bracelets I've ever seen. no expansion buckle, though.) 8. Pending: Benarus Sea Devil, Brushed Stainless + Lume Dial + Red Second Hand I'm 38 and currently work as an Operations Manager for a large real estate and investment firm. I have been all over the map career-wise, having spent time in federal law enforcement, telecommunications, real estate and the financial industry. My hobbies: autcrossing, cigars (ask me just about anything, and I can make recommendations), single malt scotch, bourbon, firearms and marksmanship, cooking, politics, Tae Kwon Do, Judo, weight training, biking, camping. My watch fascination started with my first Seiko watch in high school. I became hooked after I received my Omega Seamaster for college graduation. My one regret in this was selling my Oris TT1 Chrono a few years ago. I needed the funds at the time, but now I seriously miss that watch. Watches I dream about: Ball Engineer Hydrocarbon "Mad Cow" Hembel, Oris Artelier, Oris Carlos Coste Diver, Breitling Emergency, Tag Heuer Monaco, Chopard Mille Migilia, Omega Speedmaster.

Welcome from down south..........very far south.... It is quite amazing that watch nuts generally have a lot of other interests in common. It's all about the good things in life! I think the intellectuals call it hedonism.... Enjoy your collection in good health. Post some pics too!Camera_photos.gi Let's have a stogie on our hobby tonight....woohoo.gif
