nikki6 Posted December 19, 2008 Report Share Posted December 19, 2008 Hi everyone, another annoying noob! One with a slight difference this time though. Not sure if you have any yet, but I have recently become blind and so using a screen reader called JAWS. So if I ask annoying questions that seem real simple please bear with me, I can only remember so much info on watch's from before the Darkness Fell! lol (that sounded better in my head I have to admit! There was a faintly gothic thump after the Fell.) I have been a huge watch fan ever since I can remember, I caught the bug off my pop, who no doubt will join here at some point in the near future to make fun of me! I have a fairly wide array of watches, most of them probably sneered at on boards who talk Rolex and Tag, but I like all sorts and it take all sorts. Unfortunately I just became another victim of newsmartbuy.com, they trade as Fine Replica's amongst others as I have found out since joining! I bought a Tag Grand Carrera Calibre 36, black face and bezel with black and silver SS bracelet, I'm sure you know exactly where this is going, what I got, gasp, was not infact the gorgeous watch of my memory( which admitedly may be rose tinted at times) but a very cheap, nasty copy that my folks could have got me on their last holiday in Hong kong! So another victim had and another Noob to your boards! As I said, if I ask questions that sound obvious or are infact glaringly obvious, please take a couple of deep breaths and remember I can't see the splendor of the Rolex, Tag, Omega etc that you are looking at, I'm looking at a very poor memory of one! Oh, while on this sbject, I have spent a fairly informative and often amusing day, reading Toad's review's, Toad you are a Saint and I really hope you have the patience of one, cause I have a feeling I'm going to be bugging you a fair bit mate!! So, there you go, pick what you like out of that and throw it at me, or just say hi ( I prefer the hi's, I'm not so good with the timing of the ducking anymore!! ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siesta181 Posted December 20, 2008 Report Share Posted December 20, 2008 Welcome aboard Nikki, It takes all sorts of watches to make a collection and you find all sorts of people from all around the world here. I came across this board about 8 months back and as such still a noob as well but the warmth of this board is incredible. It's as if i have been here for years. I am quite sure you'll enjoy your stay here. Cheers Siesta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicken Manny Posted December 20, 2008 Report Share Posted December 20, 2008 Welcome Nikki6. So are we a Motley Crue, Nikki Sixx fan or is there another meaning? I hope you enjoy your stay and find some nice watches to enjoy. Cheers, CM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nikki6 Posted December 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2008 (edited) Lol, busted! I'm a friend of Nikki's so I steal his name every so often. Incidently, theres a watch collection most of us here would openly drool over!! Both Nikki and Tommy are big watch fans! Thanks to all for the warm welcome, it's much appreciated!
