First Time to say 'incoming' and not one but two!

[So Simple]

Being new to all this I've spent the last few months looking and learning, trying to find out about which watches I 'need' and while I want to at some point splash out on something expensive, the number of watches that seem to sit below the radar is mind boggling.

As a result of said research, I recently ordered a Steinhart One Vintage plus the antique rather strap they show in the photos. While getting bored waiting for it to arrive, jumped on the Orient Bambino bandwagon and ordered the black version on Wednesday from Creation and amazingly it arrived today....two hours after my Steinhart.

Here's a couple of poor wrist shots but I guess with these two you've all seen them many times before anyway.

Delighted with both watches

I have had my eye on the Steinhart for a while.... very nice watches..... now just have to decide if I prefer the bronze marine Steinhart, although the lack of water resistance is certainly putting me off so I am starting to consider bronze watches elsewhere like Ancon etc

Either way, very nice watches!

Nice, I like them, especially the Steinhart.

But are thee wearing the watches on your hand or the wrist?

I declined to comment on that part

OP you must get some serious crown rub?!?

Consider myself told, although in mitigation I was juggling an ipad and trying to minimise glare.....and....ok, lesson learned, promise to redo photos with watch suitably attired!

Congrats OP - I don;t wear my Ocean One often, but when i do I look at it a lot! Ot's surrently on a think fawn suede strap and the look has changed completely - I'll post a pic later.

The M26 Tank is really a lot of fun!

Schoolboy error hopefully corrected and within the hour!

I've not seen that Orient before. Very nice.

Well you appear to have lost a couple of stone in weight since that last picture.

I wish - If only it was that simple!

Great two watch combo that, especially for the £. Used to own a Steinhart Ocean GMT myself and there's a Bambino appreciation thread running on TZ.

If you haven't already then I'd recommend having a flick through TZ. You don't have to be a member to read the watch related threads, the forum has its knockers (especially in the Boys' Room ) but it can be a great source of information and inspiration, just looking through the Friday threads may introduce you to brands you may never have heard of.
