Just a quick hello. I'm Simon and I've recently reintroduced myself to my love of watches. I don't have many as yet but aim to increase my knowledge and collection.
Thanks.

 Whereabouts in the ‘south’ are you? It’s a pretty long old coast... I’m in East Kent myself. Plenty of good folks on here to offer advice and help you add to your addiction!

Thanks for the warm welcome. I'm pretty much bang in the middle of our glorious coastline. A town called Gosport, Nr Portsmouth.

Indeed it is. Good old Stokes Bay. Never been either. Always the same. Travel thousands of miles to see other things and forget what's on your doorstep. Never been up the spinnaker tower either.

Isn’t that Robbie the Robot from Forbidden Planet? 🤣🤣 No, but it's from the same family as the JIM in For Your Eyes Only...which I prepared for the filming. |
