Hello Gents and Ladies!

Actually not new member, have been lurking quite while here but first post. Been member a few other watch forums and interest for (collecting) watches more or less 30 years now.

This Forum seems to be very sensible and focus is in watches not who has most expensive one or most. Learned a lot from you guys already and hope to stick here and learn a lot more. Thanks for reading and Happy New Year all!

Greetings from Finland!

Welcome from a former z-series SD owner. It’s a tough watch and a classic in my mind.

Yeah! Strange, this global warming... Back -70’s, -80’s and early -90’s we had snow and real winter where I live by coast South-West Finland by sea, Turku. Now you just have to go North part Lapland of Finland to get snow for sure this time.
