In the 198O's I had a timex ... and a broken Hamilton my dad gave me that I had taken apart a few times as a kid, and marveled at the peices ...this planted the seed early on ....In the early 90's I had a Casio and a Timex, a Fossil and the broken Hammy ....I wanted an Omega Seamaster so bad but I had two young boys and a mortgage and a single income family ...Finally about 4 years ago I started shopping for a watch that would cost about a thousand dollars ....I finally settled on an Oris TT1 diver and when I got it I went to my cousins ( The Paxman ) and showed him the watch ... he was about the only guy I knew that would appreciate the peice, as we always both loved watches.... He looked at it and tried it on.....I had no idea that the both of us would become total WIS's .............
