    Seems like my "Buy within my means" remark is gaining popularity. Maybe I should copyright it!

          Your collection is better than a lot of people already. The omega, tag, glycine are not cheap too... Work hard, and when u buy that rolex or pam next time, u will appreciate it more becos u work hard for it. I always believe that one will not cherish things that are easily obtainable.

          Cheers!

            Actually the Omega was my first expensive watch after I started working for about 2 years. Its really hard earned watch for me. Till now, its still my most expensive watch in my collection. And its also one of the nicer watch that i like as its look is really everlasting.

            I can actually get a Pam or Rolex now. Just that its hard to justify to myself to spend that money to get a watch and also to get clearance from CO. So i am happy with my latest which is a Glycine which I got from my wife as my early birthday present.

            Here is a wrist shot! Pardon the poor picture quality from my Samsung Omnia.

              I agree with u. Sometimes I wonder if it is worth it to pay so much money for a watch. Afterall the watch is only used to tell time and date, plus maybe other functions. Of course, there are people who love watches and would not mind that kind of money. I truely understand cos I am a toy and guitar collector and sometimes the money I spent on those are ridiculous. Nowadays, with my wife constant nagging, I tend to control myself. Haha... She meant good lah...

              Nice watch! Care to share how much u paid for it?

                    Wife also limit my buying for watches as well. Lucky enough to get 2 this year and I am not sure whether will I get anymore this year.

                    As for the Glycine, thanks for the compliments. I personally like it a lot and find that its very well built for the price. Good movement. I love the GMT in 24 hours which is very helpful as I travel quite a bit and also talk to my colleagues in different time zones. Make me know the time better.

                    As for price, list price was $5200. Got a nice discount from THG sale.

                        Its just greed. I only have 1 hand to put on my watch. So why I need so many? Its purely greed......

                              Dun think so bro. I am totally in love with the Glycine now. Just change my strap to a honey tan strap to match the face.

                              See the latest look of the watch together with a wrist shot.





                              Again, pardon the poor picture quality as taken from my Samsung Omnia. No access to my digital camera as I am in Hong Kong now. And the 3 time zone really useful when I travel.
