    Evening Folks,

    Have been lurking a while and trying to soak up some knowledge. Thought I should introduce meself........

    Having not worn a watch for 15 years or so (sulking since some one stole my then Seiko) I finally dipped my toes back into the water with what appears (after copious research) to be the "Gate way Drug" of choice...... an SKX007.

    Loving it so far, and looking to expand my horological horizons!

    Regards,

    Jim

    Welcome. Great choice. There really is no need to go more expensive, but then...
    It's just a matter of time...

    Run away screaming. It doesn't get much better than that, just a lot more expensive.

    Thanks all for the warm welcome.........! Maybe the forum does suffer fools gladly, afterall?!

    Very happy with the SKX and have no idea what might arrive next! I have yet to rationalise how much I am willing to invest...... and wonder where I might hit the wall of rapidly diminishing returns. Hmmmmm....... might start a thread on that very subject!

    Welcome to the forum! Don't worry. we all started out clueless so you're in excellent company.

    When I joined (back in the Stone Age) I only had one watch, too...

    ...I topped out at 27...

    You have been warned!

    Welcome to the forum from another clueless newbie (just how clueless is likely to be demonstrated when the next incoming lands on my desk).

    As plenty of others have suggested it is a slippery slope. Good luck with resisting all that temptation, it is very difficult (perhaps best to stay away from auction sites).

    Will
