dear sir,
I've never seen anyone with so many watches in his collection as much as yours… :o :shocked1: :Startled:
If there is a knighthood in Watch collecting, you deserve it..
You would make us happy if you could take close up pics of a few of your watches at 1 time. You may take up to a month posting everyday and I'm still not sure if you can finish showing us everything… :P
I'm glad I never called myself a collector otherwise you'd put me to shame bigtime... :'(
One heck of a devoted and faithful collector….
Do tell us how long you took to collect all of these…I'm sure you have very interesting tales to share..

BTW you need any adopted brothers or sons or relative….?.. :Praying:

Thanx everyone for the warm welcome,...

I am from perak, but currently residing in mainland penang,...
This is passtime cum hobby cum retirement plan, and I believe that having watches that are made of solid gold, you won't be wrong.

Took a few years to accumulate these.
Close-up pictures are in my blog.

Northern members should know or heard about me.

fobs

I am really impressed. With your collections, many will agreed thats it will takes a lifetime to build...

I am also a Penangboy here and you must excuse me for my / our ignorance. Up north here, I / we are not aware of this existance.

You must have a grand retirement plan. Maybe you would like to share with me / us more...as I am also planning to retire soon...on a small scale.  :thumbsup:

Please do PM your blog for us to drool over...
Thanks
