    New member here. Been collecting watches for about 15 years, but until a couple years ago, never really got into a serious watch. Did a bunch of research and decided that Omega was the first serious watch for me. Rewarded myself with a Planet Ocean Chronograph right about this time last year, and a Speedmaster Dark side of the Moon, just yesterday.

    Cheers!

    Thanks. Regarding the Dark Side, I went in wanting to upgrade my Planet Ocean into the Titanium version and came out with the Dark Side instead. I can't get over how light and comfortable it is to wear!

    Welcome. You started out with twp great timepieces. I think the DSOTM is one stunning watch. Congrats on the purchase.
    Be careful, hanging around this forum can get expensive. ::money::

    The big question is what do you have planned next? Maybe something vintage or a dress piece?

    Nice watches Rob, congratulations! Welcome and I suggest you set yourself an avatar before the mods do it for you. Bare chested David Hasselhoff seems their preferred choice at the moment...

    Definitely a dress piece. But that'll have wait till next year. I'm a one watch per year kind of guy.

    The dark side of the moon really just fades into the darkness there. Nice

    The DSOM has the coolest name ever applied to a watch. Ever
