    Here's to my first post on the forum with the first luxury watch in my collection thanks to Krinkily!

    Very happy with my purchase, although, I know it seems sacrilegious to go sapphire. I just really wanted the exhibition caseback on a new watch that would follow me for a long time.

    This landed a couple of days ago. The 'Great White' certainly seems to fall into the love-it-or-hate-it category.

    I love it - a really versatile watch with good functionality.

    Oh and yes, I thought it smart to take a picture next to a great white horse, for some reason...

    Certina IMG_1113.JPG IMG_1115.JPG IMG_1065.JPG IMG_1068.JPG is new to me. I saw one on instagram and then started searching. There doesn't seem to be a lot of information about them, except http://www.vintagecertinas.ch/en/home-en/.

    Easier to find sharp versions of these than more well known brands.

    Picked this up today. If my #speedytuesday doesn't arrive soon, I may have to put this on a Rolex.

    I also bought this. I am moderately afraid to open it. Not sure why I bought it, but I thought it might be useful and I have more money than brains. Should I return it?

    Bought some of this to go with it (bought some green, too):

    And some felt and cotton thingies.

    May I ask: Where did you buy from and how much did you pay for them?
