Hi Leigh and welcome to the forum. Please do tell us about your current collection, perhaps with some pics!
Hi All.
Thought I’d say hi as I’m new to the forum. Always loved wearing a watch but recently got the bug and started collecting. Currently have three watches.
I’m looking forward to reading the forums and joining in with the discussions. I’m sure I can learn a lot from you all.
Thanks
Leigh

thanks everyone :)
I’ll list the watches with a bit of a timeline...
Tag Heuer Indy 500 - I bought this around 12 years ago, it was my first watch purchase and I loved it. I wore it almost everyday until around 4 years ago. I made the mistake of taking it to a local jeweller to change the battery, they didn’t replace the seal properly. Ended up with water in the watch and it was out of action for a few years.
Rolex Explorer 214270 - I bought this beginning of last year in the second hand market. I absolutely love this watch, it’s subtle and the sizing fits me well. I now wear this almost every day, it’s currently on an Everest strap. After buying this the watch bug kicked in so I sent the tag off for a full service!
Rolex Submariner 114060 - I got this earlier this year, I had the chance to get it from the AD so I’m happy it has my name registered to it. Mostly comes out to play at weekends!
I will add some pics when I’m at the computer. I’m currently on the phone!
Hello and welcome to the forum

Welcome to the madhouse. Buckle in.
Nice watches.
Welcome, nice watches! I have been thinking about trying my explorer on rubber. Looks good.
Nice collection, welcome a great forum full of things you can and cant afford, but a great resource for all things.

Hi. Nice watches.
I’m relatively new myself too. Nice place really, frequented by mostly nice but all a bit bonkers, folk.
Non WIS - “You collect watches? Why?”
WIS (me) - “Err, I dunno really. I just like them.”
Non WIS - “Why do you want more than one watch? You’ve only got two wrists. Isn’t it expensive? My watch cost £50. It’s dead accurate and tells me my heart rate too. You spent HOW F’ing MUCH? You’re bonkers!”
Enjoy the forum. It’s dead good

Welcome Leigh!
Welcome,lovely collection .
I love the explorer on the oyster strap, but IMO it lacks a bit of adjustment so I always struggled to get it just right (I like my watch to fit snug). I gave the Everest tang buckle a go because of the amount of adjustment and it now fits perfectly. I’m happy with how it looks too, along with offering variation from the oyster bracelet on the sub :)
I think the next additions to the collection will be an automatic chrono and something with a white face :) any ideas welcomed!
And on sales corner you can sell your car and buy a watch! Insane!
You'll love it here,
Welcome

Welcome to the forum. Very interested in the explorer pics above as im considering rubber/leather options for it. I take it you are happy with the Everest. Worth the outlay?
Welcome to the forum-nice collection. I'm sure it will expand when you get access to the sales corner.
Welcome to the forum . That's a very nice collection .
Welcome to the forum. Like your collection, quality not quantity springs to mind. Stay here long and the quantity will surely follow!
Started out with nothing. Still have most of it left.
