Hi from downunder

Post by Blubarb » April 4th 2025, 8:09pm

Hi. My name is John and I am based in Australia. Though I am new to Watchlords I am not new to watch collecting and I have been collecting mostly vintage Omega, Zodiac, Doxa and Military issued watches for nearly thirty years and I still know I don't know enough. Good to find another group of like-minded collectors and look forward to making new friends, new contacts, learning more and helping out wherever and whenever I can.

Cheers
John

Hi Gerdson, funny you mention the barbie as I am just about to go and get it ready for a family get together this evening. Haven't used in twelve months, so I guess I had better clean it.

I haven’t seen a CMC in ages, nice.
Even rarer than CWC's I'm told 993kg%

CWCs are epic (and deserve a nice strap or bracelet). Welcome, you can see we tell it as it is here.
NRPI and Shitheel here.
