Hi, all!

I'm John and I'm relatively new to the watch collecting world. I used to just think of a watch as a means to tell the time. If it was under $100, even better! But somehow I ended up with a collection that's caused some marital...strife 😉

I own one Omega, the Speedy Mark II 327.10.43.50.01.001. I know most "connoisseurs" roll their eyes at this watch, and I understand the reasoning. But it's made me a serious Omega fanboy. I'm blown away by the quality vs. cost and I wear it more than just about any other. I'm really looking forward to learning and engaging with everyone on this forum.

I have a quirky side: I love HAQ watches. I know what you're thinking, "John, that's not a quirk, that's just dumb." To which I say: 🤪 And to prove my love of HAQ, I have a Spacemaster Z-33 on the way!

Y'all are gonna be a very bad influence on me. And I am HERE for it.

Hello John. and welcome to the forum! I'm a new member too but in the short while I've been here I have found that on OF all quality watches are appreciated. If you haven't already, I'd recommend you check these two threads that might interest you.

Hi John, and welcome!
We prefer watches that are off 5 seconds a day, not 5 seconds a century.

Thanks for the welcome.

And don't get me all excited! 5 seconds a century?! *swooooooon* Hehehehe

Thank you! I wanted more info on megaquartz.

Welcome ! A z-33 ... wow!

My 72’ MKII says hello!

😀

A beauty! A real beauty.
