Hello! 😀
Hi Everyone, I’m a fairly recent convert into the watch world, my addiction started in the last couple of years really. I feel that I’ve only scratched the surface of what there is to know, but I’m excited to learn more (and obviously collect more) ⏱ My first “proper” watch was a Longines Spirit Zulu Time (which I’ve recently put on a green rubber strap as seen here). What was your first watch?

Relatively new to collecting but definitely caught the bug, not sure my health insurance will cover this one…

I do swap between the straps depending on the day, don’t get me wrong I love the brown too! Thanks for the kind welcome 😃
Thanks!! 🙏
Hi there, well done you!, I've been collecting and flipping for years, I still haven't got anything as nice as that Longines !😕 welcome aboard.
Welcome to Watch Crunch and Enjoy! You have an amazing Longines! Great start to collecting.
Love your watch. Oh welcome to WC lol
Enjoy that watch!
Cheers!
Amazing pick! And welcome to the community. I just joined myself and very happy to share this passion without shame 😅 the world just doesn’t understand us
The term, proper watch, irks me. Are we inferring that one simply can't be called proper unless one has Swiss Made on the dial? Is a quartz watch not expensive enough to be a proper watch?
My first informed watch purchase was a Citizen Eco Drive, not a proper watch apparently, and I still don't own a proper watch. Shame on me.
Nice Watch! Welcome!

No for me it just meant the first watch I researched and thought-over before buying. I’d had random watches years ago but never considered myself a collector. This to me is my first “proper” serious purchase, but that term means something different to everyone and also may not be used by everyone - which is fine. For me it symbolises my entry into watch collecting. If it helps I consider other purchases since then as proper watches, including my £20 Casios 👍
watch is gorgeous!! welcome!
Very nice watch. Welcome to WC!
Welcome! Great intro!
Welcome to the club! Love the green bezel
