Greetings from South Wales

Hello fellow time travellers. I'm new to this as hobby. I've been watching Mark's videos for a few months now and aquired a few cheap tools. I figure I'll probably upgrade to better quality tools on a case by case basis as I go along based on what I use. I don't have a particular taste in watches, I'm a "know it when I see it" kind of guy. Automatic, digital, hand wind mechanical - doesn't matter. I'm not sure I'll be wealthy enough to splash out on a Rolex or Omega (or any other high end) watch any time soon but am enjoying my collection, with my favourites at the moment being a Fiyta Yachtsman, a Swiss made rotary, a Vostok Amphibia scuba dude, a Casio GMW-B5000D-1ER and a Casio Range man with a few others inbetween including G Shocks, Burei's, Vostok's, Rotary's, Invicta. 

On my wrist as I write this is a Vostok Komandirskie (pictured) 

I always loved watches and used to "borrow" my fathers Sekonda mechanical when growing up. I've barely worn a watch for the past fifteen years although have always owned one or two. The interest came back to me last year when my wife and I gave each other a "decent" watch as gifts. I received the automatic Yachtsman and she a quartz Tissot, our criteria was to spend a few hundred pounds on a watch that wouldn't fall apart with daily life so opted for stainless steel all around and sapphire crystal. 

So that's enough about me for now. See you in the trenches

Thank you for your introduction and welcome to this friendly forum.

Good tools such as screwdrivers and tweezers make it easier to work with.
