Hello WatchCrunch!

Hi all! Joined WatchCrunch a while back but was too timid to post until now. Being an enthusiastic collector that happens to be women can make the online watch forums a little intimidating...but I love this hobby and want to commiserate with like-minded folks that love it too. So heeeyyy!

Lovely piece! You know you are a collector when you have a blok watch in the lineup!

Welcome to WC.

Welcome! We women are definitely in the minority here, but there are definitely a few!

Welcome to WC. Anyone with the good taste to have a Benrus pointer date can stay.

Welcome to Crunchland. No place better to talk watches with fellow enthusiasts.

·

You are not the only lady! Welcome and please feel comfortable to share your point of view

Welcome to the crunch!

Welcome. cool bunch of watches btw

Welcome!

While watch enthusiasm has been historically very male dominated, we definitely could use more women's voices here.

Lovely varied collection.

Looking forward to some of the stories of their acquisition & ownership.

Hello and welcome to WC!

Welcome. What a great box of watches. Looking forward the hearing more about them.

Welcome! Nice collection you've got there. I'm all zoomed in looking close. Some interesting vintage stuff. Coooool! :-D

·

Welcome 🙏

Welcome! You have a nice collection of watches! Love the 2 you have shared on #WRUW!

Welcome! The Mrs comments that a lot of guy enthusiasts are collectors with support from their spouses. I have seen so many comments from members that until Watch Crunch they were supported only by their capable wives. I don’t make ugly remarks about her shoe museum she doesn’t check my bags returning from ads in grocery shopping bags. Peace and harmony.

Thank you! Saving that one for my little guy one day (although I take it for spin every once in a while😄)

The Mervos is one of my favorites. Love those old parking meter watches!

Thank you! I am a lover of all things vintage however I recently got into the microbrand space and there are so many cool and accessible watches out there...was able to snag the Lorier Gemini Racer pre-owned for a steal, and my IMP watch was a gift (that watch company is really rad!).

I love vintage watches as well. Pity we don't have any flea/Sunday markets or thrift stores where I'm at.

I'm very cautious on getting vintage pieces online as they might not work or might turn out to be a frankenwatch or Mumbai special that does not work.

Welcome! I think this is generally a more welcoming forum than most with hopefully the testosterone dialed down a little, and definitely a positive vibe.

You have some nice looking pieces in that box, definitely worthy of a nice watchbox😉 !

We never really had those in the UK although we did have parking meters in big cities, that I know of anyway ! I am wanting one, one day.
