Hello from Brisbane

Hi everyone

I've been enjoying this forum for a while and feel it's about time I introduced myself and started participating. I live in sunny Brisbane and have 2 expensive interests - watches and wine.

Until recently I've rotated a Sub C with a Tudor Chrono 79270 and have now added a GSAR for a 3 watch rotation. I feel the need to start looking for a winder...

My wife isn't a huge fan of TRF as I spend a fair chunk of time with her iPad "researching" this forum, but she did join the club this Xmas with her first Date Just

Finally, I'd like to thank Dan Pierce for his amazing posts - I've got a couple of those Italian rubber straps of his on the way to try on my 79270 and a vintage Seiko I've had forever.

Scott

Welcome - and you'll probably want to buy a 12 watch winder! TRF has a habit of inflating one's inventory
