    You should check out www.omegaforums.net. By far the best watch forum on the interwebs.

    Why? Well, sniff around and you'll see for yourself.

    As always, you're the voice of reason Steve :thumbsup:

    Seann, here's a site that I think will help. Besides this forum of course. https://www.hodinkee.com/

    Thanks! I'm familiar and have found some very helpful stuff there. I think they may have been the ones that lead me here.

    We have many honourable ex-WUS members. Some voluntarily moved on - a few left a little less voluntarily :D

    Let's just say the standard of discussion here and on the recommended sites mentioned is a bit less, er.... superficial, than on WUS.
