CONTEXT: I live in Europe, more precisely in Malta.
I work in the igaming industries and I’m done with it. Two months ago I decided to start study watchmaking (with focus on Swiss Mechanical) as a possible future business.
Since there is nothing regards this here in Malta I had (and have) to import almost everything.
So, last month I bought the complete kit and it arrived today.
The unboxing (don’t mind…
Hello forum.
Woke up today and went straight to the shower. 5 min after I realized that I forgot to take my Ball out (Victory Fireman).

My mother and my uncle said that my Grandfather got it as a…
So, a couple of months ago I started a watch collection. It is not my first collection, I also collect rum, zippos and knifes.
Collecting rum is easy bc if I like a rum I buy two bottles, and if I don’t like it, I will give the bottle to a friend. Also, I can drink more then one label at a time. So no ownership guilt here.
