Well it's time

Post by canuckfan33 » Sun Apr 23, 2017 8:40 am

First post here from Okanagan British Columbia Canada.

I've cleared out my collection and I'm down to 9 from 18 watches. Getting comfortable with my likes and dislikes.

So it's time. Bought my wife a customized 10 year anniversary ring using her wedding and engagement ring and a number of pieces in her jewellery box plus cash. So I have the green light to get a Doxa!

I've drooled over them since reading Clive Cussler books in my 20's. I still can't afford a new one so my quest is on!

Should be a fun, guilt free, journey!

Welcome to the madness! Post some pics, join the banter, ignore Eric and you'll fit right in! :grin:

Welcome!

As Dave said, post some photos of your watch box :)

(And yes, prices would be US $)

Nice, selling a few and getting a Doxa sounds like a great plan.

I'm always planning on selling, but hell, I'm really bad at selling and much better at buying :lol:

Post pics of your Doxa when you get it!

Gotta love the watch forums. Over at the Canadian Watch Forum my call was answered and I just got a 1200t. Loving it so far. The size, shape, and oh that orange! Great for where I live in the sunny Okanagan, BC. ImageImage
