Not in the Rolex, Tag league so Citizen Eco-drives for me.  My everyday CA0120-51A on the left and my titanium radio controlled Red Arrows JY0110-55E on the right.

This thread will end up costing me a fortune!  :laugh:

And as for the Omega seamaster aqua terra, my word!  :drool: :drool: :happy2:

My modest collection has changed slightly as i have changed to a rubber strap on my 'old' F1 so that i can use it as a daily for work, only allowed a non conductive strap due to working around high voltages and seemed a shame to have it sitting in a drawer at home, so had it fitted whilst it was in for a service (MUCH cheaper via the Tag outlet for both items if anyone is needing one)

Like that rubber strap, looks good on the F1. Might need to look into that for my Orange one.

Cheers!  :happy2:

I'm really happy with it and it means i get to use the watch every day now which is nice, much cheaper from a TAG outlet if you have one nearby as they will suppy and fit for £73 which was almost half the cost of online retailers i'd found

I don't have any Pictures but do collect watches ,I have two Submariners,two Daytonas  and one Explorer 2 42mm white dial My first proper watch was in 1988 a beautiful Omega speed master  cost me £725 and sold it in 93  for £795.

The guys on here who don't get the Rolex thing ,Here is my experience  I think hand on heart i can say I have never lost a penny on my Rolex fetish.I have bought a couple of Breitling  and been proper burnt  ,don't ever buy a new Breitling always buy used at as low as you can get it for ,it won't be low enough but at least it will be damage limitation .

Agreed scooba, I bought my Rolex less then 2 years ago and today I saw a secondhand one in the same shop I bought mine for £2k more than I paid for mine new! :surprised:

I remember being on hols in Malaysia years ago and looking at Tag copies in a market. When I told the vendor I was only looking he prised the back off the display model to illustrate the quality and it had Seiko internals. First thought was I would still get a half decent watch for about 12 quid. Second thought was hang on, what if the Seiko bit's fake as well!
