Hello from the UK

Hello all. I have been a "light" watch enthusiast for many years, and have had by father's old Omega Seamaster deVille 1966 for decades. Fifteen years ago I treated myself to a Breitling Old Navitimer II and then this year took the plunge and got a Submariner 11661LN.

I also have a soft spot for Orient watches and have a few of their Makos for knocking around in.

I am also a serious penaholic and have about a hundred fountain pens - Sheaffer PFMs from the sixties are my specialism. Lastly, my toy collection is completed by a Porsche 911 and a Land Rover Defender!

Looking forward to learning more about Rolex.
