Nice, very nice. I used to collect watches but since giving up work I no longer need to know the time 😀. They have all gone.

I am in a similar position, although I do have a wee part time job within walking distance from my house...hence why my Puma has such a low mileage. :lol:
Watches like these and in particular the Tag Heuer brand is something I have always admired, but due to the cost I have never been able to justify it to myself. Having said that I managed to easily justify spending a small fortune on new cars. :?
This particular watch caught my eye last month when just casually looking in Goldsmiths where the salesman spent a considerable amount of time talking to me.
Over the next few weeks I couldnt get it out of my head so I thought to myself...you know what life's too short, just go ahead and buy it, so I did. :D
The buying experience and personal service was honestly far better than when buying a new car.

I like a nice watch and have a couple myself.
The Tag is my daily use watch and the Rado for the special night out.

By coincidence I was looking at a Tag Gulf watch in the shop, although a little different so probably an updated model.
I seen 2 different Tag Senna watches...one of which was around the same price as mine but the other was considerably more expensive. No prizes for guessing which one I preferred the look of. :lol:
When buying my watch they gave me a free Wolf winder. If you are a watch guy you will probably know what this is, but it was first time finding out for me. :D I dont actually need it for its main purpose because my watch is not Automatic, but it will make a very nice display case.
I intend to wear my watch on special occasions only. :)

Yeh I have an auto winder for the rado but never use it.... I must say though, it is a lovely case and nice just to show your watch off when not in use.

A new release arrived yesterday to add to my collection.
1:43 scale Spark Mercedes W14 Lewis Hamilton Monaco GP 2023.
This was the first outing for the W14 with redesigned sidepods, and Lewis finished 4th while setting the fastest lap before the rain started.
I still have another pre order to come which by coincidence is from the same race - McLaren MCL60 Lando Norris which should be released later this month.
