For me was it no too busy.
It stat a little slow with this one. That soon will looks like this. Here is how it happend. http://www.watchwallpapers.com/ddie.htm Next one was this. The transformation. http://www.watchwallpapers.com/smrebe.htm Then this one shows up. And get a new shape. As you can follow here. http://www.watchwallpapers.com/hte.htm Then I need a Tudor more. And finally a factory fresh Black Bay. Lets see what 2013 will bring.

Exactly my thought. I just shake my head in amazement when I look at Jocke's pics.

I sold a few (vintage V&C, Omega and Heuer). I also sold a load of antiques, silver and furniture, and a house (but also bought a house here in CH) Watch-wise, I bought a TT mid-sized YM for my wife, and then a vintage 1680 red sub and a 16600 SD for myself. And a bunch of assorted straps! I think 2013 will be a lean year, in the horology dept. Cheers, K.

No Rolex watches this year, as I got my Sub in December of last year.
I bought a Seiko 5 from Amazon last night, because I've always been fascinated by that line and I personally saw one for the first time at the bowling alley a few days ago. The chief mechanic was wearing one and he said he really liked it. Also, the Watch Snob called the Seiko 5 the "the best 'cheap' high-end watch on the market today." That really piqued my interest. So, the Seiko 5 is my first and only watch for 2012 and also my first and only Seiko watch. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00...ls_o00_s00_i00

It was indeed a watch year for me Jocke.
All I did was " watch " as others acquired new pieces ;-) |
