New to the forum and fairly new to collecting/appreciating watches as well - at the moment focused on vintage watches.
Got this less than 2-weeks ago!

Took the opportunity to buy this one back. Popped it on a generic rubber while I resized the bracelet, I think I could be tempted to invest in an OEM.
The original strap monster!

Arrived from a Italy today...
Don’t be cruel...
Acquired this strap and fitted by local AD today
Always fancied a blue dial watch, the watch had a steel bracelet but saw LukeBirds deployment strap on a thread last week and fell in love with it
Took a punt and well delighted
Thanks to LukeBird for the assistance in pointing me in the right direction

My today's arrival on a strap that I thought could allow me to dress it down a tonne in a semi-classy manner. I think it's working.
Just arrived from our very own Snoodles. Beautiful watch. Terrible photography skills as usual

Arrived today courtesy of an old school gentleman Dick Browne
Popped it on a strap for the moment until I source a 5 digit bracelet for it
Dull old day, but this rolled in yesterday to brighten it up. Just need to get the right strap on it. Currently on a Sinn rubber (from my ezm2), but thinking black leather. Looks great on almost any NATO too
Just received this Damasko from a forum member.

Arrived yesterday from a forum member. It actually looks better than I expected.

Very nice Devonian. Now that you've added it the white can make way for something else. Let's see what Tuesday brings.
Not exactly a new incoming but an incoming of sorts. Bought this in 2005. I was on a Caribbean cruise and stopped off in Belize. There was a new store that had opened that day and I paid £750 for this the automatic version. Turned out on subsequent cruise stops and looking in different stores that they charged me for the battery version and I should have actually paid £900. I wore it for sometime but eventually bought a yachtmaster and ended up selling it to my colleague. He didn’t particularly look after it, which weirdly kind of annoyed me a bit, so three or four years ago I bought it back off him. One of my sons has had it and worn it for a couple of years and when he bought his own watch, it’s been unworn since. Sent it off to Omega for a service and to replace a few bits. Very pleased with the result.
Another SPB149 joins the forum. Early days but enjoying it so far, though the infamous bezel alignment issues are present - even if minimal.

On the way as of last night;
A quite rare SKX399, made for the Philippine market
Very nice indeed, the best colours too IMO

Smaller than I thought, but very striking and most comfortable.
And for you Rolex fanboys, something new for you to collect.

My new addition today. Always wanted a pepsi.

Yeah, definitely smaller-wearing than the Sub/GMT/ExpII, but my wrist is on the small side (6.75") so still fits well. Really enjoying the mix of the white and black. [I was actually surprised at how small it looked when I first tried it last week, but I didn't want to pass it by as I've been on the list for a few years now.]
Two brilliant incomings. Well done both! I once tried the ceramic Daytona and also felt it very comfortable, more comfortable than other oyster bracelet watches, perhaps it is lighter?
Pepsi is striking and I think one of the most attention grabbing of the current lineup.
Cograts Seadweller and juke.
Just arrived today and looking good. Not me.....the watch.
This arrived from SC today. Very impressed so far!
Can’t beat a Damasko, a pair of new arrivals even more eye candy. Love them

Hi,
A few years ago, I let go of my Amvox 2 Black concept to fund another watch. I have been regretting it ever since.......
An opportunity came up for the DBS version and I took it! When I first decided on the Amvox 2, I was torn between the Black Concept and the DBS. I thought that since I have given the Black a go, why not try the DBS this time!?
Quick iphone pic.
Been great to have the Amvox 2 back on the wrist. It is so surprising that it is a watch born almost 15 years ago! It still looks so young, sharp and fresh (in all its iterations)! Very comfortable to wear despite the large size. So pleased I have a member of the Amvox family back!
A question about the chronograph function. I recall the minute counter is what we call a “semi-instantaneous” jump. What about the half hour counter? I notice it seems to move in little steps (as opposed to a distinct jump every 30minutes) as the minute counter elapses. Is that right?
BW,

Oh well, it's just another watch
Incoming, apparently it's a Zodiac Homage, but then I've never heard of Zodiac
