Introduction
Hello everyone, I've been lurking the past couple of days and have added to a discussion or two so far. I have a small, inexpensive collection consisting of a few Casio digital and analog pieces, an old Swiss Military diver, an older Caravelle "dress" watch, and a TAG Heuer Formula 1 which I purchased on a cruise ship in 2022. I blame the TAG for my interest in watches! I'm a TAG Heuer, Tissot and Seiko fan, with the PRX, Le Locle and Seiko SSK GMT on my wish list. The TAG Heuer Autavia COSC GMT is my grail watch.
I tune in from Nova Scotia, Canada. I look forward to my "time" here!
I'm new to watch collecting and the "culture;" my desires are much greater than my budget but I do enjoy reading about and seeing different watches.
Welcome!
Welcome.
Welcome and you have great tastes in watches. I have the PRX and SSK GMT and can attest they are excellent.
Welcome...enjoy the hobby!!
Welcome. The Formula 1 is fantastic. I have an Aquaracer and Monaco. I also used to have an old mid-80s Professional 3000, but my daughter "borrowed" that one. You'll love the PRX when you get it. It is so versatile.
Hello and welcome to WC, Gary!
Welcome! We have/had some watches in common! I'm still torn between a Tag Heuer Monaco (icon for me) and a Tag Heuer F1 (icon of my childhood).... What F1 do you have?

Hey Zorro! I have the F1 Quartz (probably the least expensive one on the list, TBH) in stainless with the black face. It will probably be the most expensive watch I will ever own. I do love it but I don't wear it often as I'm too scared to scratch it! It's here on the TAG Heuer Canada site:https://www.tagheuer.com/ca/en/timepieces/collections/tag-heuer-formula-1/41-mm-quartz/WAZ1112.BA0875.html .
The Monaco is amazing (I have a friend with a older vintage model) but I just love the Autavia. I had one on my wrist recently - it's a chunky thing but gorgeous.

Nice! There are a few less expensive, dont worry 😜 I think i will import a vintage monaco from japan. Your f1 looks really great and dont worry about scratches. After the first scratch it gets easier 🤣
I had the PRX Powermatic 80 in white/gold, a SKX009 with a jubilee bracelet and a swiss militarry arrow chronograph in rose gold.
I hope to see some pictures of your collection! Have a nice weekend 🍻
Have fun and I’m a big TAG fan myself and a Gary!
