Not really! I'm a professional astronomer and am currently living in the Netherlands. I'm a South African; I love drinking beer, playing cricket (yes, its possible in the Netherlands) and drooling over watch reviews when I'm not distracted by work. I've was captivated by the images of the Seiko 5 SNZG13 watch on Worn & Wounds review, and so I've started my collection with this beauty (pic attached). I'm really hoping to learn more about the history and culture of Seiko watches from the community. I admire the design aesthetic, philosophy and engineering inherent in Seiko watches, and look forward to being part of this passionate and exciting community! Attachments:

Welcome!
I'm guessing The Netherlands isn't the best location for astronomical observations. Do you work remotely?

Hi Everyone, Thanks for the wonderful welcome! lordflagpolecrabtree No I'm not an alcoholic, but am indeed well on the way to becoming a Seikoholic! @myles - I'm a radio astronomer, and we have two pretty good radio telescopes here. Light contamination doesn't affect us, although planes, helicopters, mobile phones and TV towers are always pesky sources of interference. Well spotted!
