: Thank you very much for the compliments. OTD is such a great place to fuel one's passion for watches. Though I'm not as active as I would like to be, I have developed long-lasting friendships here along the way.

Looking back at the year that passed, I guess I will have to
: deviate from the normal watch acquisitions. I did not go as
: crazy with vintage Heuers in 2014 compared to the previous years
: except for a Carrera 2447T.

:
:

: In fact, I've had to let go of some to make room for a few pieces
: with the normal seller's remorse feeling (Autavia KAF and 11630P
: and GMT) after, like this

:
:

: I did land a nice straight hand Explorer Mk1 early this year and a
: few other pieces

:
:

: But my crown jewel for this year would have to be this: my
: own watch room. Inconspicuously hidden in my library is a
: tiny watch room to house my collection. I used to have the
: watchcases stacked against each other.

: Here are some pics of the library:

: If you've gotten this far, I guess this is a Best of 2014 and SOTC
: combined. Thank you for patience.

: More power to everyone this 2015. May all your watch dreams come
: true...
