Hi there from Europe!

I´m new to this forum and would like to intodruce myself shortly...I´m kind of a watch maniac for a few years now hunting my "exit watch"

because of this it seemed to be a good idea for me to get in touch with some people outside of germany to get new information, inspiration and knowledge on my way on the search for my "holy grail" - this place here seemed to be the best

... when I get to know other things beside what I need to know for my "last" watch, it´ll be my pleasure and my wife´s loss ;)

thank you for having me here!

At the moment my watchbox keeps

Rolex Datejust 1603
Rolex GMT Master II 16750
Breitling Navitimer World
Omega Speedmaster Professional
Panerai 112 G- Series
IWC Aquatimer 2000
Zenith DeLuca
Enicar Sherpa Guide
Fortis B42 Cosmonaut Chronograph

.... to be continued

ok here we go...and thank you for the warm welcome

first off my GMT 16750 in the winterdress ... in summer she´s dressed with a pepsi bezel



next is - in my opinion - a totally underestimated watch the

Zenith DeLuca



then one of my favourite daily rockers and a true classic, too...my

Omega Speedmaster professional



the next is one that I wear very often during the summer...

the IWC Aquatimer 2000



after this watch my first real vintage watch, which I don´t wear too often although I really like it ...

Enicar Sherpa Guide ( runs PERFECT btw )



then we got my other favourite daily rocker, because of the comfort to change straps so easily the

Panerai 112



another watch which is very nice in my opinion but got almost no wristtime my Fortis B 42 official cosmonauts chronograph....I have to wear it more often...



and finally my Datejust from 1970...runs PERFECT and is mostly worn by my wife....




hope you enjoy the pics!

regards

André
