    Hi All,
    I thought I would introduce myself with the obligatory wrist shot.

    Hey S1m0n and welcome man!

    Nice Speedy, the next item on my shopping list when I can talk myself into it. Where'd you get the sig btw, been asking our resident designer to come up with something like that for myself.

    I still need to get some good pictures of my 2225.80, its a surprisingly hard watch to photograph as it reflects light at all angles, speedy with hesalite always looks good from any angle :)

    How much wear does it get vs the Submariner, or is the sub for taking the hits for the speedy to protect the crystal?

    I sort of wear the 1680 with plastic crystal only when I know I'm not going to get it knocked and let the Seamaster take all the hits since its got the sapphire ;)

    Another resident photographer. Nice. Great contrast between polishing/brushed links there.

    Welcome to the forum. :thumbsup:
    Hmmm. I suppose we can shorten the name to "TOF" or something like that. So, welcome to TOF! I'll look forward to seeing more of your photos.

    Welcome. I think that might be my next purchase before I get a sub.
