Hi All

My name is Michael and I am a watchaholic...just joking.

I am a Project Manager in the Petrochemical industry and currently work in Kuwait on Mega Oil Projects.

I have always been fascinated with watches, but could never afford the ones I really wanted, well until the last five years or so. I currently have a SS white face D series Daytona and a Breitling Aerospace. I also have a few cheaper watches.

This forum really has a lot of excellent information and I have already learned a lot in the short time I have browsed it.

Cheers,

Michael

Thanks, Its ok in Kuwait, I mean its pretty modern and the infrastructure is ok. The one big downside is that there is not much to do after work, and its a dry country which means there is officially no alcohol allowed.

Also, its hot, very, very hot. Around this time of the year it gets to 50 °C around mid day. This is 122 °F. Its so hot here that I made a fire in my lounge to cool me down!
