Hi everybody, have been reading for a while in the background but would like to step up my game here as I see a lot of very valuable collector-level information passing by. My name is Andy, I’m a financial advisor located in Belgium, and I’m passionate about vintage pieces. Modern watches just don’t do it for me. I am now mainly active on the Dutch Horlogeforum.nl, and on IG (follow me here: https://www.instagram.com/a_pylyser/ ). Some recent pictures of watches in my collection (I have +50 in total):

 

Welcome along Andy!

Nice watches

Cheers

Chris

 

Thanks Chris, here’s a few more favorits. Authenticity and factory originality are key for me

 

Nice stash Andy.

Looking forward to seeing more of your watches around the forum.

 

And you’re off to a great start!

Pics in the first post.

And a very nice assembly of vintage.

 

Welcome Andy,

What a fantastic entrance! Hope you stick around and share more of your gorgeous collection! I would be happy to own every one of the watches you’ve shared!

 

Thanks Guys! A couple more to share for now, the rest is for future contributions

 

Welcome! You have excellent taste!

 

Welcome and thanks for posting

 

Welcome! Boy, you have some very cool watches! And the Connie in your first post looks brand new!

 

Welcome, @septentrio, good to see another member from the Benelux join...

Your Buren's distant cousin says hi!

 

Thank you all for the kind words and warm welcome

 

My Angelus chrono says Hi BTW.

 

Gorgeous, I have the 38mm very high up my wanted list!

Angelus is one of the most underrated brands still, absolutely love ‘em, together with Omega, Longines and Eterna.

 

@septentrio

We have a tradition here on OF called “dibs”.

And I am calling DIBS on ALL of the stainless steel chronographs you have shown so far, and also on those not yet shown.

I’ve limited my dibs to give others a chancel

 

Duly noted

 

Hi @septentrio

Welcome to the forum.

I spent a little time browsing your IG photos and just the love the range and quality of the watches you have collected

Looking forward to learning more about your collection.

 

Thanks a lot @omegaswisst

The Constellation looks flawless. Do I notice a BMW you drive too?
