Title: What an amazing forum.....
Post by: Carl Lee on December 13, 2012, 11:36:39 AM
Hello there,
I'm Carl Lee. Long before I own a time piece, I was already fascinated by the technology in mechanical watches.
It is the detail and coordination in each time piece that really excite me. 3 years ago, I was introduced by my dear uncle into this fantastic hobby and I immediately fall in love.

I started with an Omega Seamaster Professional Planet Ocean and I've been in love with it since.
I'm looking forward to hearing and sharing this excitement with all of you and wish to learn more before I commit into becoming a collector like all of you.

I'm really grateful to be in this forum.
Carl

I had an Omega Planet Ocean Co-Axial Chronograph 44.5mm Cal. 3313 (FP1185 with co-axial escapement) with an orange bezel and orange 3, 6, 9,12 minute markers for 4 years.
An absolute gem of a watch, accurate, stable rates, impressive presence on the wrist...
accompanied me on hundreds of dives all over SE Asia working flawlessly..

However as with all things in life, we all move on and it was sold last year... but an absolutely great watch for anyone to start collecting fine mechanical watches..fond memories of that watch..

U'll definitely not stop at just this 1 Omega PO..... be afraid.. be very afraid....
once u check in , you can never check out..
let's see if you can go past 4 yrs ownership before flipping... ;)

Hi JOS,

In fact, I've been sourcing around since the beginning of the year for a B&R.
