Newbie from the UK

Hi all,

Been a member for a wee while and just been lurking so thought I would finally post.
My watch obsession really took off about 2 years ago when my wife bought me a nice used tag heuer kirium. Since then I have been trying to learn a great deal about different brands and models and have collected a few interesting (well to me) watches.
I am now looking at getting a birth year, 1982, submariner, sea dweller or Gmt depending on what one takes my fancy as I like them all.
I currently have:
Rolex Air King 5500
Tudor 79260p post tiger.
Bell and Ross br02-92
Oris fiber star
1944 Breitling ref 178
Rolex Explorer II 216570 white.

My obsession has also infected my wife and she has embraced it with a nice rolex oyster perpetual red grape and a birth year tudor mini sub.

I look forward to learning more from the forum.

Regards,
Barry.
