hey all....greetings from England

Long time collector, but new to the channel. I started collecting many years ago, mostly dress/lux stuff, but increasingly eclectic over the years! Love fine British and Swiss watches, and anything a little unusual - here's my first two from when I started in earnest - my Breguet Marine and my JLC reserve du marche. I fell in love with these two because of the dial and the detail - turns out they were half-decent watches as well 😀 Many have come and gone, but these two are mine forever....

That JLC is beautiful! I think another strap would make it look even better....

spot on - the black alligator is very well-worn and a bit scruffy. What would you suggest?

Welcome - greetings from SE18 👍

Welcome to crunchy town. Great collection you have there. 🍻

·

Welcome mate, I love your JLC !

·

Howdy friend welcome!

·

Welcome to WC. Those are two really nice watches - looking forward to seeing what else you have in your collection.

·

Both are excellent watches that are generational pieces so classic in design. I own a JLC and while it is not necessarily my most valuable watch it is my favorite. 

·

Welcome! Your taste in watches is admirable, I look forward to seeing more!

kind of you to say - back then it was more "see shiny thing....want it" rather than the exercise of good taste or judgement. Actually, it's much the same nowadays 😀

·

now, thats a duo. Wish I could pull off dress watches on the daily.. congrats fella and welcome to WC!

That Breguet looks superb - very special and little else that’s similar. Welcome!
