Thanks for the warm welcome, guys!

As for what's on my wrist, it's just a trusty Casio. I joined this forum so that I could learn and hopefully purchase a watch of substantial worth. Just looking at the watches on display at the high-end shops just makes me salivate.

Too bad my bank account does share the same enthusiasm, though!
