Hi chaps

I hope you are enjoying your weekends so far and my UK brethren are looking forward to a nice long bank holiday.

I'm Geoff from Brighton and, well, I like watches (amongst other things...but mostly watches).

That's it for now - see you around

No it's not, dammit! Though I do have my emails aliased that way, as everyone misspells it.

You keep it wonky too brutha.

Tissot Visodate on Hirsch Duke, TAG Carrera chrono, Custom Dievas Vortex (DLC case), Nomos Orion Datum, and a couple of quartz Reflex pieces I received as gifts.

**jmarchitect** · 4th May 2013, 17:11

Welcome to the forum Geoff! Liking the Nomos.

**geoffbot** · 4th May 2013, 17:15

Thanks - I like it too. I'm leaning more toward dressier pieces these days I think.

**PD1** · 4th May 2013, 17:38

Welcome

**PGee** · 4th May 2013, 17:42

Hi - just joined myself too, seems like a great community of fellow "watch addicts"

**Walesy** · 4th May 2013, 17:44

Nice collection Geoff and welcome to the site, now I am not the onlynewbie

**RyanB** · 4th May 2013, 20:42

Welcome! Brighton's a great place for a watch fan, always plenty to look at!

**Plake** · 4th May 2013, 21:15

Welcome Geoff from another Brighton based TZUKer.

**SeanST150** · 4th May 2013, 21:19

Welcome Geoff. I see you have 4 spaces in that box. What are you planning to fill them with?

**Rich11** · 4th May 2013, 21:25

Hello and welcome, and I hope Brighton win promotion!

Thanks! Not too shabby - there are some preowned shops in the Lanes that sell all sort of goodies, Watches of Switzerland (not quite as good since they dropped their JLC line) and your Goldsmiths etc. London is better!

I was hoping there'd be some locals. You guys ever have meets? I have no WIS friends!

I'm not a massive footie fan I'm afraid but my buddy is a season ticket holder and I am quite excited about potential premiership action!

**CafeRacer** · 4th May 2013, 21:48

Hi Geoff, welcome to the forum! I joined about 7 months ago and still learning from all the helpful and friendly advice here

I like the pic of the great but sadly late Joe Strummer in your signature by the way

rock rock Clash city rockers!!

**muddy250** · 4th May 2013, 21:53

Welcome from another newbie. I love that Visodate, wonder why I don't have one yet!

I've been to one Sussex WIS meet which was good, nice guys. Keep your eye out for a summons ;)

**Wexford** · 4th May 2013, 22:21

Hi Geoff...
Another welcome from the Netherlands. I like the Nomos :)

**Citizen V** · 5th May 2013, 06:07

Hey Geoff. Nice to see you over here too.

**jimmer42** · 5th May 2013, 06:45

Welcome to the forum from about 60 miles West in sunny Southampton. Good to see another WUS member join here!

**G.J.** · 5th May 2013, 07:05

Welcome..!!!

**Keke** · 5th May 2013, 11:18

Hello, I thought that I recognised a familiar name from WUS and I was right. Don't know if you have noticed me there, but I use the wus alias "ancient_mariner". I like your Dievas, nice looking watch.

**Shin** · 5th May 2013, 11:48

**junfan** · 5th May 2013, 12:27

**geoffbot** · 5th May 2013, 12:57

Well aren't you a friendly bunch. I won't reply to you all individually(!) buy thank you, and great to see some local Brits, and familiar faces Citizen V and Keke (yep - I know who you are!)

I thought I'd diversify my browsing a bit.

Cheers chaps - we've finally got some sun!

**AlexM** · 5th May 2013, 13:27

Welcome Geoff. It's a slippery slope!

**Thom4711** · 5th May 2013, 13:30

Welcome to the Forum Geoff and happy hunting!

**igorRIJEKA** · 5th May 2013, 17:47

Welcome

and show us your watches

**tenpasten** · 5th May 2013, 17:59

Welcome to the forum

Purely by coincidence, I just found your review of your Nomos on YouTube - great review of an even better watch. More like that please.

TPT

**geoffbot** · 5th May 2013, 18:22

And thanks again!

Thanks. I did a video review of the Datum because there were no others at the time. It was a bit long(!) but I'm a watch nerd and can talk about it for hours, so 6 minutes was quite reserved. Next time I get a piece that's seemingly rare I'll be sure to do another review - definitely.

**Vanderbos** · 1st August 2013, 00:04

Welcome from Durham, Geoff! Is that the 38mm or the 35 mm Orion? Looks beautiful next to the other watches, a real standout!

**homer555** · 1st August 2013, 00:08

**sebastien1985** · 1st August 2013, 08:40

Thanks!

38mm datum Weiss with display back.

Haven't been so active here - as I say tbh I joined for the gtgs, but I'm just in the final stages of buying a house so I've been busy.
