Hi from France !

Hey everyone, I'm Florent from France (Bordeaux to be precise). I'm new here. I've been collecting watches for a bit more than a year, and just got the Speedmaster virus. I didn't think the speedy was my thing before. Thought it was too big for my wrist, that I was not into chronographs anyway. And then I read, and read, ingested as much information as I could (and bumped into this forum doing so), tried a bunch of new ones at my local AD. And got that virus. Now I'm looking for a 90's 3592 or a more affordable tritium 3572... Or a step dial if I find one in my budget.

I currently own a 1972 Datejust, my first "luxury" vintage watch, and I love it. I'm not new to Omega, I previously owned a 1966 Seamaster calendar that I ended up selling. Also have a Tudor Oyster from 1952 and a Polerouter Jet. I love both of them, but might end up selling them to fund my first speedy (...

Everyone here is really nice and helpful, I'll try to contribute in any way I can. Thanks for welcoming me !

Bienvenue!
Tu vas adorer, ici 😉

Welcome, great introduction and nice photos. Enjoy your time here.

Salut Florent!

Bienvenu! Comme le disais @MaiLollo, tu vas adorer, il est MORTEL ce site 👍

A+

Bienvenue Florent,
J'ai le même rapport à la speedy pro. J'y était plutôt réticent, puis je m'y suis intéressé. J'ai fini par acheter une Alaska 😀

Je la porte tous les jours.

Hi Florentd Welcome, this is the most interesting forum there are many information here from all over the world!
Bienvenue et je t envoie le bonjour du pays basque !!

So many French people here ! Thanks guys !

Welcome! Lovely collection, I really like your polerouter!

A big welcome!!!!!! Nice watches.

The polerouter is aeesome

Thanks ! I'm selling it (and my Tudor too, if anyone here is interested) because I just acquired... my first Speedy ! So excited ! Bought it right here on the forum. I get it now I have one...

That's a nice collection I have a feeling I will be spending to catch up to some but not everyone.
