Hello from a New Member

Post by JoelDelman » Sun Oct 19, 2014 4:22 pm

Hi All,

My name is Joel and I'm a Dive Watch Addict:-)

Seriously, have been a collector of various makes and models for many years, but realized a few weeks ago that 95% of my watches feature a timing bezel of some sort or other, with serious water resistant qualities, so glad to discover the DWC...

Seikos (new and vintage) are the foundation of my collection, having sold off most of my Swiss a few years ago (and not really missing them too much.) Doxas are, however, a relatively newly discovered passion, these beautiful watches have really struck a chord.

Anyway good to be here, and hope I can contribute something useful from time to time.

Best,

Joel

OK, will post 'em as I wear them... worn today is the Autozilla, and yesterday a new Citizen signature (bit dressy for a diver, but built like a tank and keeping time to within 2 sec / week... incredible craftsmanship):

Welcome. You probably need to upload them to Photobucket or something similar. And it's gets rowdy here on occasion, don't take anything too seriously and you'll fit right in. :cheers:

That's ok, just PM the wife/girlfriend photos directly to me. I'll share as appropriate.
