I'm nearing 9 years on OmegaForums, which is longer than I've been on any forum. It got me thinking of my "early days". So I went to the Wayback Machine and found this site to be relatively well archived.

I hope these links evoke fond memories to those who remember them and are interesting to those who weren't around yet.

From 2011, back when the WRUW thread had only 100 posts. Now it has almost 200,000!

The second link is from the day I made an account, back in 2013. The WRUW thread had over 7,000 posts by this point! I remember Archer's old avatar!

You can see the evolution in design. If you have any other fun delves into the Wayback Machine, please share. And Thank you again to the OmegaForums admin's for fostering a community on this site.

I had a look back at the Wayback Time Machine, and saw that I bought my first watch on OF from you back in 2015.
I still have it and wear it regularly, but it has a NOS red strap on it instead of the original blue strap, with a no.27 clasp. (which I still have). Maybe you can guess which watch it is?
