Location: Durham - North East UK		Something a little different for this section, as well cars, another thing I'm interested in are nice watches, I already own a very nice 2006 Omega Seamaster Chronometer, but have been fancying an Omega Speedmaster for some time now, and this one came up at a good price it's a 2011 Omega Speedmaster Co-Axial GMT Broad Arrow, in my eyes one of the most beautiful watches ever made.





I think watches are good investments also, my other Omega has gone up by £1100 since I purchased it, so long term they tend to rise rather nicely in value.

Mrs went mental when I bought it, but hey ho, you only live once!

Location: Hinckley, Leicestershire		I don't really like watches if i'm honest as I always have my phone in my pocket, but that watch looks really smart, I have an old watch that was given to me after my grandad passed away (r.i.p), i've always wanted to buy a nice watch which kind of contradicts myself..

My Omega Seamaster would stand up well in Watch Top Trumps, diving resistance on that is 300M, the one in the picture goes to 100M. No back light though I'm afraid!
