Title: New hobby
Post by: ultraman on January 19, 2011, 02:12:32 PM

Hi MWF,

Have been reading this forum a lot for the past few months, but only joined recently.

Previously spent a lot of dough on my other interests, ie cars and props. Now knuckle down a bit and maybe (with wifey's blessing) get a few more in my collection. My collection is very modest compared with sifus here. Seiko, swatch, gshock... Just bought a rollie as a first major purchase and now looking at panerais.

Hope to learn more from u guys.  :thumbsup:
 :Cheers:

Thanks! Bought the sub c. Very generic watch so no need wrist shots?  ;D

Yes seems like it's going to be expensive, but it's much tamer compared with what u need to fork out for cars and properties!  Already getting earful from the wifey :Scolding:

Am looking at the pam 312, 359, 351, 88 and maybe 29. Any recommendation on gd place to source them?
