love/hate this hobby

hey guys,
just wanted to drop in to say hello. have been learning and slowly collecting watches in the last few months. i've tried to hold myself back from getting into this hobby, passion, etc. but alas - i am sucked in. haha

so far i have a vintage Tissot Navigator single dial with a lemania 1343 movement, and a Marathon-gallet steel case military watch. I'm looking to add a Tudor to my line up, specifically the Tudor day date, jumbo size. I fell in love with it as soon as I saw it and it "speaks" to me... calling out my name. hahaha

anyways, hope to hear from you guys soon and thanks again for this lovely site!
