Hello folks,
I discovered this forum three years ago, when a started to be interesed in watches. I signed up, I start to read... until now.
I am from EU, non english native with "medium" level in perpetual learning. International forums like that is an extraordinary way to improve english. I am not a great forum writer in general, I follow a little other hobbie forums, but I only write when a have the answer to some member question, or if I have a question that I haven't find the answer by myself.
I started my collection playing with homages. After this stage I follow with russian amphibias and indian hmts. I grow up and tried cheap Orient and Seikos. And then I arrived to entry level swiss made. Now I have a 6 watch collection, 3 japs and 3 swiss, and I think that it is time to try a rep.
I have to confess that my interest in replicas is my very dark secret. No one knows about it. Some people knows about my interest in watches and my little and modest collection (with no reps... for now). But I found that it is quite impossible to talk about reps with watches "real" fans. It is a controversial issue, and I understand some arguments... but I don't know why I feel attracted by the dark side, and I will try to full enjoy it.
Regards.
