A wee hello from Scotland.

Hi guys been registered on here since i bought my Milgauss GV back in July and only now getting round to saying hello. My name is Rik i'm 35 and are located near Glasgow in Scotland long been a watch fan ever since i bought my first expensive watch which cost me £300 back when i was 18, i recall an Air King back then was available for £1500 but it was too plain and to expensive for me how very much my taste has changed since then lol.

Anway hopefully i'll be accepted on here and be able to contribute to the on going disscussions on what i've seen so far seems a very friendly and informative forum.

Cheers.
