Hi all, My name is Howard and I am in Hertfordshire, UK. I have a keen interest in dive watches (especially vintage) without actually being a diver, apart from a bit of holiday snorkelling. I might be doing my PADI this summer though when I go to Portugal in July, and then, who knows, I might actually get one of my watches wet. These are some of the watches I have managed to keep bone dry so far:


Most of these have been and gone though unfortunately so I am definitely looking for something a bit different. I have my eye on an Orsa Monstrum and/or a Raven Vintage and it was googling them that led me to here. Still don't know much about either though so will be hoping to benefit from the undoubted brand expertise on 3T. I hope I can contribute to the forum in general as well though, rather than just be a potential buyer. I have feedback from other forums (some of it good), most notably from TZ-UK. Thanks for looking/listening. Cheers H

Thanks Russell, I love hippo's which is lucky because there are loads in Hertfordshire.

Typically, the picture I posted of my favourite watch hasn't shown because it was too big so l'll have another go...



cheers

Thanks Dim.

The T12 has one of the most impressive crystals I've ever seen. It looks like you could swim in it.

Had some good news today as well. I have finally secured an Orsa Monstrum after looking for one for quite a while. Should be with me on Tuesday...can't wait.
