    Hello everyone, I can't believe I hadn't found this forum before, especially as the majority of my collection are Omega's....
    Some of you may know me from the omega forum on WUS (although I haven't been on there for a long time) and I am also on IWL, TZ-UK and the Christopher Ward forum. I have been a bit inactive on all the forums as life has been busy and there are too many temptations on the sales corners which doesn't help me to be good and not buy more watches.

    Any how, I kick around on instergram and came across Chris Mann's podcast, Time 4a pint, and that lead me here.

    I have a watch habit, there I said it.

    I have recently got more into vintage watches as I love the earlier watch styles and sizes and I have come to realise this is a very slippery slope.... But I love the hunt, except when two or three great examples of the watches I am looking out for come up for sale at the same time as I generally never have enough money to buy them all.....

    Here are a few from my growing collection:

    Cheers

    All very nice Clarky! Nice to have you on the forum mate! Be nice for you and your watches to get along to one of Chris's Time4apint meetings in London at some point..:)

    Welcome aboard, some nice watches you have there. That Smiths will go down well with a certain Scottish gent on here! Especially like your last photo showing great taste in whisky, looks like you’ve enjoyed a fair amount of it already!

    Hello and welcome!

    I remember a Clarky from the C Ward forums. I was Magnus over there.

    Great collection - the Smiths is superb!

    Hope you stay around

    I did and still do occasionally but with my wife and I having just had our first child, i have no spare time for strap making currently.

    Thank you and yes I'm the same Clarky as on the CW forum. I still pop in occasionally but life has kept me very busy so haven't been on any forums much for the last 18- 24 month.

    Love that smiths mate, looks great on that leather strap.
    Think they may be small for me though
