OK, so I’m not brand spanking new, and by my standards if I’ve been doing something for 2 months, I’m a veteran; but going by the look of the more avid posters, I think I still qualify as a newbie.

I thought I would share with you all the progress I have made in the few short months I’ve been a watchaholic.

Starring in these pics you will see my long-suffering mouse, who has endured countless hours of scrolling through repgeek.com, and without whom, I would probably have enough money for a small yacht.

Enjoy.





My latest acquisition, a PAM111 from prestige watch co.


Unbeknownst to me at the time; my first rep, a Tissot PRC200 from those trusty Chinese sellers on eBay. Believe it or not, this is still one of my best quality reps.


A Graham Oversize Chronograph from Toro Bravo before he went incognito. He was great to deal with.


An Emporio Armani again from our Chinese eBay friends. I didn’t know if it was a rep, and didn’t care; I just wanted a square dress-watch.


A Rolex “Kermit” from Robert at prestige. Already lost the dot of lume that should sit at 12 oclock on the bezel. I guess you expect that for $50.


GMT-MASTER II, also from Robert


A gen “Planet Orient”. They’re not really big on this forum, but I love it.


Two Nixon Rotologs. I ALWAYS get comments when I wear these. People say “Why are you wearing two watches?”
Just kidding. But I do get comments about how unique they are.


These two I’ve had for years. They’re old surf-watch beaters. I thought I would put them in as I’ve put them through hell and they’ve never skipped a beat. I have a lot of love for these two.


This is not a rep – it’s a $9 automatic from eBay. I bought it to pull apart and put back together again as an exercise. I thought I would wait for it to stop working first. I’m still waiting.


Finally I have the dodgy factory strap from my PAM111 and a 24mm sub-buckle that I bought for the custom strap you see sitting on the PAM.
