Hi from Sheffield, England..

[Johnbaz]

Hi all

Noob here!!

I'm in Sheffield (Used to be known as Steel City, I've worked for 40 years in a Heavy foundry!!), In England and have collected watches for around 45 years, I've amassed a bit of a collection in that time and used to repair them until arthritic fingers/thumbs were causing tools to slip from my grasp 

I sold my National Electric parts washer as it was stood doing nothing but I still do bits like fitting cells/bracletes and replace crystals etc with watches!

I've boughtabout five or six watches in the last couple of weeks which include a couple of Dan Henrt, Seiko, Orient and Vostok!

Some of mine..

I'll shut up now before I put everyone to sleep!! 

 

 

Cheers, John
