my new acquisitions

Well since joining the forum around a month ago I have bought 6 reps so I thought I would post a pic to show them off. The 2 Rolexes came from timeshops promotion, the IWC and Orange Omega from Robert and the black Omega from Mary. The Patek is a couple of years old and I will probs sell on to help fund a Pam at some point.

I am more than happy with the watches however there are a few striking differences in the Omegas which I may point out in a later comparison. Also the more expensive Rolex has a far superior a strap and case finish which sets it apart from the cheaper LV and Sub (sold)

I like the Omegas and the IWC. Please post what differences you found in the Omegas.

Thanks for the kind replies

 

as for the Watch Box it came from Sorrento this year, the wife bought it for me as a honeymoon momento.

 

Sorrento seems to be a center for this sort of thing as there is shop after shop who specialise in marquetry and inlaid wooden boxes of all shapes and sizes. Although there were boxes that stored upto a dozen watches or more I decided on something for my "six of the best" so to speak, that and the fact it was only 100 euro made it a perfect choice.

 

BTW pics dont do the box justice the finish is outstanding!
