Hi I'm new to the The Watch Forum, I retired early after 40 years in engineering the last 30 spent working on North Sea platforms. I love my watches having owned around 6 Rolex's and a Titanium Omega Planet Ocean. Unfortunately I'm a flipper and every time I flip I say that's the last time but it never is. I've recently taken ownership of a used 2019 Bremont Alt1-C PB it's a beautiful watch which I hope will put an end to my flipping... :biggrin: . I'm not one of those purists who claim a decent watch has to contain an in house movement, many don't, you buy a watch because you like it and want to wear it unless you're a flipper like I used to be.... :yes:
Welcome Rick. One way to avoid the flipping is to take up collecting instead... I'm not sure that's a helpful suggestion, but it seems to work for a lot of people here :thumbsup:
Hi Martin, I'm not sure why some sites insist it's members upload images from a URL as opposed to their computer. I tried using a URL to the photo on my Google Drive which didn't work. How's it done on the Watchforum...
What's the point of all this hassle to upload images to thewatchforum when the watchuseek site facilitates image uploads from members computers, it doesn't make sense.Why make things so awkward thewatchforum....
Watchuseek is, as I understand it, now run by a business. Here, it's run by the generosity of the owner, and the members who make donations to help keep it going. I understand it's all to do with bandwidth, which costs. Hence the need to have a hosting site and load pictures from there. The forums own gallery can be used for hosting pics for a small fee.
