That's quite a collection it makes my Seamaster pale into insignificance. What made you start collecting?

I built a custom PC for a work colleague who run into financial difficulties and he offered me the Omega 2254 as payment. Then the bug took hold. I only started collecting around a year and a half ago. I have to flip if I want to try something new now.

Where do you buy your watches from?

I've been on the rainforest site and haven't really seen anything that catches my eye. Any better sites?
