    Hi everyone, have just joined today and what a great forum for knowledge. Thought I would show you my watch collection, I know its not very exotic so please be kind with any comments.
    The Seiko 5 was my first watch bought for me by my late parents when I was 15 and is the most valuable possession I own.
    The Seamaster is 1968 I think and 18ct rose gold with a 565 cal which was my 50th bday present.
    The Gshock is for when I think some damage may get done doing some DIY etc.
    The Submariner is my everyday watch.

    Welcome.

    Watches with a sentimental attachment are always our most prized. It took me far too long to realise the "odd looking" handset on the Sub was due to the cyclops.

    Ha! I have no issues with Gshock. They’re not personally my taste, but I’m just for people loving and wearing watches, no judgement, just whatever appeals to that person. The 3 I pointed out were the ones that caught my eye.

    All the yes to this! Whether they own one or not, if it’s their personal taste or not, any collector that doesn’t appreciate Seiko, or even looks down on them, has DEFINITELY not read enough!

    Welcome, and have to admit I started looking at your photo from left to right and thought; ok,....hmmm,....nice!,...well hello there.

    I also realized I have the exact same watches in my collection.:thumbsup:

    So good start...and you know what they say...if you know how many watches you have, you don't have enough!
