Hello from Kent, South East England!

Hello there.

New member here!

I purchased a Omega Seamaster 300 Ceramic last August. Absolutely love it. However, my grail watch is a BLNR GMT. I reckon in around two years, I should have the funds to get a GMT (have to pay the mortgage as well ha). I recently went into Mappin and Webb here in Kent and they said there would be no problem putting me on the waitlist. I have recently bought my Omega from WOS, so they can see my buying history and know I'm not a flipper! Just a massive fan of watches!

In a couple years the Batman will be discontinued (i reckon) so it'll be even harder to get. I love the idea of a GMT as one of my passions is travelling. So I think its a perfect dream to work towards. Maybe in a couple years, there will be different versions of the GMT but for now, its the Batman for me!

Anyway, going to have a wander through the forum now so thought i should introduce myself first!!

Cheers, Carl.
