Hello from a new member.

I've been lurking for a week or 2, slowly learning things, even bought my first rep-a Patek complication-not a great version (v poor crown and it has a year window, which the real thing would never have) but it is pretty, was cheap, and is a start. I'd upload a picture if I was clever enough to work out how to.

Things to learn:

What do all these acronyms mean? (e.g. SOSF, MBW, PO, SMP etc.)

How do I stop myself buying more?

What should I consider buying next? (I've got thinnish wrists so the super large watches are not a good choice)

Where are the best places to buy from? (I think I've worked this one out-dealers recommended in this forum!)

Where do I learn to modify/find someone to modify my watch(es)?

I don't expect anyone to answer these, I was just voicing them, partly to help clarify my thoughts, and partly for other members to see the sort of things a "newbie" struggles with.

I'll keep reading (and re-reading) all the pinned topics and relevant forum messages I can.

Regards from the UK.

Thanks P4GTR. I'm learning!

I'll keep reading/absorbing and try and take time before I make my first proper rep purchase.
