I won’t tell, but I seem to recall you saying “I can’t get anything new right now” not too long ago...and this will make new watch #2 or #3. I know one was from the raffle but you are still the man!
Haha I've won 3 watches through raffles this year and traded for one. Also built one and got one from the pay it forward thread. So technically this is my first watch purchase!!

If she notices, tell her your forum friends made you buy it. Feel free to scapegoat us in any way possible :D

I guess I'm in the buying mood today. Just purchased some hands from yobokies for my upcoming mod.

At least you're not selfish enough to pierce your ears and wear the earrings.

Dang, dude! I don't consider myself unlucky in the least...but THREE watches from raffles? You are even more the man. I'm gonna leave that there and not ask how many raffles you have entered :lol: .

I've got this guy on its way. Shame it's the stupid looking logo but I can't complain. I know a lot of people wanted this watch and I was fortunate enough to grab one. The reason I like it is because it gives me Omega seamaster 300 vibes (without being a blatant copy) which is one of my favorite watches ever. I'm going to try putting it on a light brown rally strap I think or maybe a bond NATO to really be like the Omega from Spectre

Beat up Vintage Avalon. The look just really called out to me. It's a $15 "what the heck" purchase.

Nice patina on the dial and the unique markers and lugs are very cool.
