Hey guys, thought I'd introduce myself properly. I've been using the site for quite some time now, but only recently became a member. I'm 28 years old and work offshore mainly around Australia in the oil and gas industry as a welding supervisor.

Here is my collection to date;

My latest acquisition thanks to Ultraman!

I got carried away with my humidor and iphone yesterday. This is my Panerai 312.

This may look like your average GMT2, but this is in fact a ref 16760 fat lady. Unfortunately, at a major service in London, the tritium dial and hands were replaced against my will. I'll remedy this someday...

My Zenith El Primero. I don't wear this much, but I do love looking at it.

Bell & Ross. Yes yes, they're over priced, basic movements, no history and popular due to great marketing, but c'mon, they look sweet.

My first ever 'Swiss Made' watch, Breitling Colt Ocean. Embarrassed about the condition.. :S But I bought this during my apprenticeship when I was 18 and have worn it on every job I've ever been on. Once again, I will remedy this someday.

I've banned myself now for the rest of the year... I think... But I'd really love a white face Daytona and a TT Blue Sub. Oh and Radiomir... Throw in an AP too!

Ben.
