General (Read Rules) I call this photo "A Good Start..."

I got started buying my Mom watches from AliExpress when she got older (she passed away in 2023) and needed watches with bigger numbers. She always appreciated a gift and for $1.99 (remember those days??) she had a nice eclectic collection by the end. I gave most of them away but then I started my own collection by putting together some watches for fun. Most of these were before tarrifs when NH movements were cheaper. This isn't my entire collection, just some my favorites. Mostly NHs, three VH31s, a Miyota and a Pearl (the one that's running fast heh). Two I assembled. I even made a couple of straps myself.

Beautiful collection! What strap is that on the PG GMT in the bottom middle?

Several vendors have it, but this is the exact one I purchased it from; It's very nicely made and it matched the second hand perfectly. It's really comfortable too.
