Hi everyone. I've been lurking here for quite a while and thought an introduction is way past due.

I've been wearing watches since I was a kid but just got into collecting a few years ago.

I know a few members here from other forums but I'm looking forward to getting to know you all and sharing what I can.

Thanks for the welcome everyone. Here are a few pics of my collections of watches and ink.

I'll start with my modded Seiko 5 SNZE93K. This is my first attempt at doing one myself and I am pretty happy how it turned out. The chapter ring is stock and doesn't line up well with the aftermarket dial but that will be remedied shortly.

Image

Image


I really like this watch a lot. It's a Magrette Regattare 2011.

Image


This is a Meccaniche Veloci Rally. Great watch but the strap sucks. Joe from SPNR Straps is helping me out with that.

Image


A lume shot of my Armida A1. This is the only picture I have of this watch. Not sure why I haven't taken more.

Image


This is my favorite piece in my collection right now. Its a Salvatorre Ferragamo F-80 COSC.

Image

Image


I have sold a few (Magrette Bronze, Orient 40th Anniversary... Seiko Stargate not sold yet) recently to make room for an incoming. A pretty modest collection but lightyears from where it used to be.


Now for the tats...

Sleeve in progress...

Thanks again for the welcome!
