Since I don't think I ever did a proper introduction to this forum, this might be an appropriate time.

Some of you already know me from IG, or perhaps you are lucky enough to get pestered by me via email or PM from time to time :-)

I'm 32, live in Hawaii, love to surf and love watches and history. My surfboard collection currently is much larger than my watch collection, but I'm working on that. Collecting watches has taught me a lot about myself, but mostly just that I am much more neurotic than I thought I was...

The Navitimer was the first watch I ever fell in love with. Thank you BSource for the wealth of knowledge and help.

My most recently arrival, a 1963 806.

Thanks Fred... Didn't seem like a silly comment at the time

Rene, what I lack in collecting experience I try to make up for with paranoia and photo editing skills

Wow, congratulations Eric! Love your pics on IG, keep posting that lovely Dodane.

You have great things to come; my watch collection just recently caught up to my surfboard collection! Cheers! Bill

Thanks Bill. Will do! Problem is my surfboard collection keeps growing. Hopefully I will break a few this winter

Glad I'm on the right track <nervous look>
