First off, may I say in the most cordial way....
DAMN YOU ALL!!
You have all slowly continued to get me addicted to watches!!
I miss the days when I viewed a watch as a simple thing to tell me the time, and the only thing that mattered
was that it didn't cost too much so when I banged it up I wouldn't care and that it was waterproof and could handle some G Forces....
sigh...
Those days are long gone, and it is all your fault... DAMN YOU!!!
LOL... <chuckles>
Anyway, on to my true questions here.
I am slowly accumulating various reps, and slowly becoming more and more willing to spend more and more on them....
Did I say...
DAMN YOU ALL!! already?
Oh, I did.... OK, good....
So, now that I am beginning to accumulate some reps, some good, some not so good...
I need a few items.
First of all, my dresser top is starting to look like a scrap heap of watches, I need a case.
Nothing fancy, don't want to spend watch money on a storage case,
but I certainly need one to protect the watches and keep them organized...
and to "hide" the growing numbers of watches by not making them so obvious to my wife!!LOL
I am hearing this more frequently....
"You bought ANOTHER WATCH!!"
LOL, I think I am going to record it and post it one of these days!!
The second thing that I need is some basic tools for switching straps, dang, some of those straps are pricey!!
Did I say...
DAMN YOU ALL!! recently, no?
Well OK, now I have!!
What I am cursing and thanking you all for is getting me into this great hobby.
I got a great comment on an IWC Schaffhausen I have been wearing for a few days, and it is a kewl
to connect with other watch appreciators
So, suggestions on where to get a case and what basic tools would you suggest?
I am not yet into modding watches or getting into that side, but I see my OCWD (Obsessive Compulsive Watch Disorder),
kicking in, and I probably will start modding watches at some point.
First thing first... lets just start with changing out straps and giving me the ability to take a caseback off.
I found this on eBay... garbage? basic starter set that is ok?

And a case like this?
