Hello ATG. WatchNut22 here, but you can call me Rick. I live in the Boston area, been collecting for about 2 years, but have loved watches my whole life. It never occurred to me to become a collector. Then I discovered this whole crazy collector sub culture and now I'm hooked.

I have gravitated to vintage chronos, but really love all sorts of watches. Funky Rados, quirky Russians, rock solid Seikos, divers, elegant Swiss and French, dress, sport, beaters, and sturdy Germans. Love them all! Here is my current collection, but it is constantly changing as I buy and sell. About 3/4 of my collection I consider permanent, finding that final 25% is where most of the fun is for me. New discoveries, great deals on ones I've lusted after, or just a piece on a whim.

Hi all,

Been enjoying the ATG forums for a while but never bothered to introduce myself - mainly as I dont have too much to share as a new kid on the watch block.. Anyway I'm in sunny Sydney a great spot to be but a little far from the 'best' markets (so sad that most things I like are for "CONUS buyers only"...)

So one of my few but much loved pieces is this Molnija pocket watch (am I in the right place for PWs?!). Nothing fancy but I like the steel case and cream off-white dial..
