I buy and sell watches with no specific ideas or knowledge in the past.
Buy when I like the design and sell when I found them again after cleaning the house.

Maybe, lately I was free again after a mad rush on my work.
I browsed swx and bought 2 pieces of seiko.
They are known as UFO and bullheads.

These 2 are my first pre owned seiko. Vintage or not, I can't tell.
I fell in love with them, even they are not new, there is something about them that drawn me towards them.
That was yesterday only.....
So I started going through the web and saw alot more nice seiko, it was unbelievable.
And then, I found this great place.
Here I am. I hope I can learn from u guys!

Thanks for this forum too.

UFO & Bullhead are iconic vintage pieces, congrats on having great foresight to have these 2 models as ur 1st & 2nd watches!

These are considered vintages, automatic chronographs. 6138s are generally beautiful models to collect, I myself is trying to complete the 6138 family as well, slowly though as I love 6138 chronographs

pls post pics of ur UFO & Bullhead

Welcome welcome and enjoy your stay here..

Feel free to post your queries and most importantly share your watch collection

Lehnsherr · Post by **Lehnsherr** » 13 Sep 2011 22:36

hello all. so u guys have migrated fully from hwz already? hehe

Sad to say I don't have a collection to speak of, neither the knowledge to spare. Registered partly to support and also looking for a seiko as my next watch. I am sure this forum will be a good source of information (can't wait to explore the marketplace

)

Lehnsherr · Post by **Lehnsherr** » 13 Sep 2011 22:48

funny i keep on getting logged out even though I checked automatically log me in. Rather annoying surfing the marketplace
