    Two years ago today, I purchased my first Omega, a new 3570.50 from Govberg in Philadelphia, at a 30% discount btw ::psy::.

    It's still my daily wearer. Two weeks later, I bought my first vintage Speedmaster, a full setup Ed White 105.003-65.
    105.003-65.jpg In December 2014, I discovered and joined this forum. I've purchased a "few" more Omegas since then and have immensely enjoyed hanging around here . Thanks for having me OF.

    If asked, I would have guessed you had been collecting for years. You have amassed, in two years, more than most of us will ever manage. Congratulations on a wonderful collection, especially the Speedmasters. And the Seamasters, Also the Rancheros. It is always interesting and educational to read your posts. Long may it continue.

    Hey Marc,

    Congrats on the 2 year anniversary BTW.
    And also congrats on sharing your watches on this forum. Immensely enjoyable to see.

    I was curious and hence wanted to ask what has been:
    a) the watch that has given you the most pleasure in acquiring over the 2 years (could be several factors at play here)
    b) the one you wished you hadn't. Indeed if there was ever one.

    Am only 10 months into my first speedy.......how I wish it was 10 years ago:)

    Congrats again and keep on Hoarding:thumbsup:

    Thanks Joe

    Sourcing correct 2998-1 and 2998-2, within a few weeks of each other, was rather special.
