and selling watches for a number of years. Only recently have I observed that my tastes have matured. I realized that I was purposely missing out on a number of fine watch companies and their products. So from 8 vintage Rolexes I'm down to my Rolex Oysterquartz Datejust I purchased new in San Juan P.R. while on vacation. It is the next to the last series produced.
Anyway, I now own 4 Breitlings: 1990s' Cossie Lemania 1873, a 50th Anniversary navitimer ( silver dial ) and a 2008 Cossie, plus a Colt II quartz on a rubber strap. In addition I own 3 Omega Speedmaster Professional Moon watches: a ref 3752.5000 Lemania 1873 with transparent case back, a Moon to Mars model (numbered) and a current Speedmaster Pro Moonwatch: I'm really into Tutimas from Germany: a Commando II chronograph in titanium, a Yachting on rubber strap, Fleiger 3 with NATO military watch dial layout (SS) and a Pacific Quartz chronograph titanium. The three mechanical autos are all supplied with the wonderful Lemania 5100 movement. Throw in a Seiko Spring Drive (interesting watch) plus various other vintage watches including Hamiltons from 1929 and 1931 respecfully. So my three watch cases are full. I also have several nice American manufacturer's railroad pocket watches and one big pocket watch in coin silver dated 1872. So I guess you can say I have a wide ranging interest .

Welcome aboard, a diverse collection indeed!

Good to see another Lemania Cosmo on the forums (I think that's four now).
