As I tell the wife, it’s better than golf…or hookers and blow::stirthepot::

When I first got on here, I told my wife about @gemini4 and what he’d spent and how I wasn’t bad at all.

Exactly. Watch collecting is a wholesome activity😀

Ah the Angelus. I spotted that but thought there might be dial damage above the hole for the hands ? Is that right ? Don’t tell me if it isn’t as I’ll be kicking myself
Haven’t gotten it yet. It’s had to tell from the pics, we will see.

The biggest bargain is the Connie, but all of them are great watches!

My speeding sprees are ancient history. I bought one lonely watch this year.

I opened this thinking it was going to be a @JwRosenthal 's 3am eBay spree haha

Nice finding that said!! The Angelus and the Rolex Explorer are super cool!
