As per the title.
As a newbie to this Forum I'm just saying hello with this first post.
I've been collecting sports and tool watches for a while but mainly Rolex and Tudor with the occasional Omega.
However I've gradually been 'seduced' by vintage Speed, Sea and Rail masters and others.
I'm now lucky enough to have a small collection with a few other 'projects' waiting completion.
I realise that I need to accumulate quite a few posts to post in Sales and WTB so any suggestions how I might chase up some much needed parts to complete my projects would be appreciated. Ebay is a nightmare and Chronotrader tends to be a bit wide of the mark. It's a shame that it's not possible to transfer posts from other watch forums.
.
Anyway - here's the current state of the collection (not including the 'projects'.

 

Welcome!

Nice collection.

 

Lovely !!
Great first post

 

Yikes, that is nice.

 

Very nice collection you have there

 

I am so disappointed: hoped to see a lot of Rolekses and Tudors.
Only Omega's.

Bummer.

 

Hi Dick, welcome, you've come to the right place.
I would not mind seeing a quick and dirty photo of the Rol*xes either (just for research purposes)

 

Welcome! And if that's a "small" collection, mine must be medium sized.

 

Welcome, amazing collection.
What watch is that all the way to the right? Is it a custom speedy or a LE?

 

There's some really nice pieces in that photo ... welcome to the forum.

 

Nice collection! If you message the mods with references they can bypass the 200 post rule if they deem you worthy.

It's one of those weird purchases.
I bought it years ago from an old watchmaker in Brisbane while I was in Australia on business - he insisted it was a factory 'prototype'.
I knew even less about Omega than I do now and whilst I didn't totally believe him, I hoped it was true.
But in reality, I bought it because it looked totally spectacular - I still love it.

 

OK - here you go.
Some of my Rolex / Tudors.
This is a 2013 pic so quite out of date - it was the last time all the watches out of the safety deposit boxes at once..
(Unfortunately, security is essential - it's the times we live in)
Anyway - there have been loads more Rolex and Tudors added since.

 

I am also a new member. No, IWC, no Rolex nor AP at the moment. I am a beginner.lol. So, I want to learn from masters before I start my collection.

 

That's a great collection. Nice first post, welcome!

 

Thank you!

 

Holy bleep! @noiseboyuk ... outstanding! What's the current daily-wear?

 

Nice to see you on the forum. That's some opening post mate! Beautiful watches!

 

You will pull about 100 Likes after the first post and a few inches away from being able to post sales on OF. Welcome!

 

And lastly, how dare I not compliment your superb collection... Awesome pieces you have there.
