As a new UK based member, can I say welcome and hope you enjoy the journey into watch collecting. Two weeks ago, I foolishly decided too add up all my spending on watches, tools, parts etc for the last few years, when I got to £14,000 I stopped and had a stiff drink. I resolved never again to spend until I had sold something. anyhow the resolve lasted 3 days when I came accross some dealer Old stock Omega cases which just happened to have the movements for). The road to hell and all that, best wishes and good luck
