New to WatchCrunch

Hi all,

I'm an amateur collector based in Horsham, UK. I started getting into watches about 5 years ago and really have the bug now.

I recently started blogging (www.bezelbuzz.com) and am looking to get more involved in the watch community to expand my knowledge and reach.

I have a long way to go as a collector. I feel these past few years have been about finding my taste. I haven't dabbled in anything top-end as of yet (borrowed the occasional Hulk, Sub etc) but in terms of ownership, I have been hovering around the £100 - £700 mark.

Recently became a dad so I did sacrifice a couple of pieces (which I aim to get again one day in the near future) such as Khaki Field Mechanical and a beloved SKX013.

Would be great to link up with collectors local to myself, but also anyone and everyone on this platform.

I have attached a couple of my photos from my watches and blog mentioned above.

Thanks all!

Hello, always interesting to see the "feeler" watches people pick.

Welcome. Most of mine are well within that price range and I get an extra buzz when I find a good watch for a low price.

Really cool collection!

Nice collection. You can’t go wrong with any of these….oh, and welcome! 🙂

It's the Hodinkee X John Mayer Limited Edition. I liked it too. I think they sold out in a matter of minutes. It was £185, but someone really wanted it and paid me £600 for it, so I parted ways. Need a 6900 back in the collection though.

Welcome to WC and congratulations on becoming a Dad, I’ve got 2 kids now and am trying to get them into watches to give myself another excuse for the wife, however at 3 and 6 they’re not too enthusiastic yet. Still we live in hope.

Welcome, and nice collection!!

Just a question - where did you buy that Seagull 1963 from?

Thanks 👍

I bought it from here:

https://seagull1963.com/product/seagull-1963-38mm-acrylic-sapphire/

But I contacted them directly and asked what model they produce closest to the original Seagull.

They said it was the one with the double line of text above the 6 marker. They said they had limited amounts but were able to send me one.

It may be worth asking if they still make that version now.
