Re: MiniMpi - November 2024 :
The birth year Omega is the star of the collection for me, but I’m biased because of the year.
That’s a wonderful collection, Ferg!

Re: MiniMpi - November 2024 :
Excellent as always, Ferg. I think your collection is enhanced by the Omegas and the vintage Rolex.

Re: MiniMpi - November 2024
A simply stunning collection to be proud of, Ferg! My favorite CWs in your are the C9 Chronograph Big Blue & the C65 Super Compressor Deep Blue. All of the watches are nice & provide unique contributions to your collection. Like Steve, I think your growing number of Omegas & the wonderfully vintage Rolex are quite impressive & fill it out. Well done!

Re: MiniMpi - November 2024
There are a handful of threads that I think ought to be bundled for new members as an introduction to the forum because they really are a “must read.” The story of Ferg’s (@MiniMpi) Rolex is one of them. The gas filled Kingfisher conversion is another! Hmm, what else? Perhaps this should be a separate post.
