Hi Guys and girls. My name is Rick and I live in London.

Found my way to this forum having looked at some of Mark's video's on You Tube.

Very informative and well presented.

I have collected around 35 watches over the years but I have a preference for dive watches.

No,I don't dive but I have big wrists and need a larger watch. Hope to get involved a bit generally in some chit chat. :)

Welcome Rick.

Don't be shy with the photos.

Welcome Rick, I also prefer diving watches but with time preferences start vanishing and now I'm getting to prefer ALL watches! Who knows where or if it ends! :)

Welcome Rick, pull up a stump and warm your hands by the fire mate :)

 

BTW, I highly recommend diving.  If you haven't tried it, go and do a basic dive course: you can hire all the gear from the dive shop for the day, and a basic course is very inexpensive.

 ... it's absolutely amazing down there!!

Welcome Rick I too like divers watches but do not dive just like the look.

Thanks for the warm welcome fellas.

 

Lawson, bit past the dive thing now I think,would love to have done it years ago but just never got round to it,can barely swim let alone dive :D

This is funny but I've been diving since I was 9 and never, ever could take with me one of my own watches! Usually borrowed one of my Dad's, always afraid they would drown! :)  A friend did that to an Omega Seamaster (forgot to screw in the crown!) and it was not funny even back then ~ 1970....$$$!

A warm welcome to the forum Rick, I'm sure you will enjoy participating and taking part in the banter. :)

can barely swim let alone dive :D

You maybe find it hard to swim, but looking at your avatar you can still get your leg over! ;)
