    Hello OmegaForums. I have been lurking for a long time but after wandering around the net on other forums and Facebook groups, it seems that here is the greatest culmination of knowledge and resources. Not to mention a wide variety of horology! I am in my early 20s and started collecting since graduating high school. With smaller wrists, I prefer vintage watches and am particularly fond of chronographs. While I have sold a few pieces pictured and am in the midst of consolidating (I say as I purchase a watch from the classifieds), here is an older shot of the collection:

    I look forward to furthering my knowledge, making friends, and picking up a few more pieces.

    Thank you! Haha I can imagine a large chunk of members wanting to turn back time and pick up nice pieces for relatively affordable prices - particularly in vintage!

    Yes, a 2002.3 'Thunderball' Top Time. Crown has been replaced and some fading on the tachy but still nice enough to wear!

    Good to see you! I'm a long-time lurker here too, but now fully engaged. It's fun!
