Hi Guys, My name is Javier. I've been into watches for about 2 years now. I started by drooling over an $1,800 Ball watch that I would never buy. I earched the internet and through other forums found a Citizen Nighthawk. The moment I put that watch on, I had this crazy feeling. It was a mixture of awe and joy. I realized that I had found the right hobby for me. I went from a citizen, to a seiko, hamilton, a few micros, and then a Speedy, then a 14060 and then a 114060. I have a pretty set collection right now, and think I'm almost happy with it. I have been dreaming of a BLNR.

Sorry for the long post, I just wanted to say hello and that I love the internet watch community, I've made a few good friends on Instagram from it, and hope to have some good discussion here.

Also, I tried to upload pictures but it kept saying my security token was missing. Any ideas?
