Started lurking, actually more like reading and absorbing an incredible amount of useful knowledge, since November. I had just ordered an Omega Seamaster PO. I wanted a luxury watch and since I could now afford one I pulled the trigger. It would have made a bit more sense to do some homework BEFORE I pulled the trigger since I didn't know jack about watches
 . The first thing I realized after a few days of intensive study on TRF was that an Omega Seamaster was not the right watch for me. I had an Invicta Pro Diver (my first non quartz watch) for a number of years. I liked it but it was time for something more suited to my life style. I do not dive. I going sailing a bit though. Anyway I ened up refusing delivery of the PO and got a full refund (eventually). The quest for my grail watch now began....by May I knew want I wanted. So where do you think I went to get it? That's right: DavidSW.  DavidSW.  I look forward to continuing to learn more about horology here and also to contribute and share in all the fascinating horology discussions about luxury time pieces. Now for the obligatory wrist shot of my 5167A: |
