Hello fellow watch heads! I am also an avid watch collector. I wanted to take a moment to invite everyone to this group on FB. We are working on growing the group up to be a great community for all of us that share this passion/addiction ;)

Come join!

Anonymous and Facebook is an oxymoron. :D

Although if I was on Facebook, I'd check out your group. Seems like it could be something nice.

Look forward to seeing you there! Oh, and anonymous is really just a play on the whole alcoholics anonymous thing. If you are a serious watch collector you'll understand. ;)

Oh. I understand, I currently have 17 watches that I rotate through. Unfortunately you won't see me there though, I gave up Facebook years ago and haven't looked back.

And here I was thinking I was weird, to have a watch box with so many watches. Glad I am not alone :)

PS: I added new batteries to around 8 watches, and it cost me a fortune!

I treated myself to this recently. It may look like just another G-Shock, but this is the GW-5000-1JF model which is based on Casio's first ever G-Shock. It's made in Japan and only available to import from there. It also has a stunning screw-back case with a diamond-like carbon (DLC) coating (I haven't even taken the protective piece of cellophane off of mine yet!) So, it's not your average G-Shock by any means.

Just picked up this 2021 Hesalite Speedy with the new 3861 Movement. It's been running right at about +0.9s/day which is a pretty great improvement over the 1861's. The new stepped dial looks incredible.

My other mechanical is a Hamilton Pilot Day/Date aka the Interstellar since Cooper wore it in the movie.
