I am a part-time and some time watch collector based somewhere in Russia and the wider CIS, posting under the moniker Blogger3133 and having over 100 watches in my collection so far. But I am also interested in cars, food, drinks, travel, photography and recording my every-day experiences of living where I happen to be at the time.
This blog started in 2013 strictly as a blog about my watch collection. However I have now expanded into all my other interests so it is now a blog about watches, clocks, cars, photography, fast food, sights of various locations, radios, gadgets, landmarks, etc.
When you have such an eclectic blog as this one now is, navigation becomes very important. At the top of the blog I have page tabs and I use pages as directories linking to my blog posts grouped around a specific subject which is the name of the page in question. Also please use the right-hand panel - for instance, you can find there a full listing of my watch collection with links to relevant blog posts. And, finally, there are such tools as "search this blog", the list of categories and even Labels - they can also help if you hope to find something specific.
As regards watches, my interest is mainly in cheaper, mass produced, "affordable" watches, lower-grade watches, and mainly mechanical movements but also old-school electronics.

Seeing as I am based Russia and the CIS and in fact live here (or there to you) I focus mainly on contemporary local watches because I like them, because they are the easiest (and often cheapest - although less of that recently) to get and I am most knowledgeable about them (strictly as a layman though) but not to the exclusion of all the rest of fine horology either.
I hope Chinese, Japanese, American, German etc. -- and may be even Swiss watches -- will also arrive in my collection one day and will feature on this little blog of mine.
All watches are personally bought, wound, worn, researched, photographed with a cheap camera and passed judgement on by me.
On this blog, in addition to presenting the high- and lowlights of my collection, I am also going to aggregate news, media, information sources as well as resources, links and useful tips and advice on wristwatches and clocks and on my other interests -- cars, radios, gadgets, food, drinks etc.
As I said, in addition to watches and clocks, I am also into cars and also collect radios, especially shortwave radios, gadgets and electronics, have lots of cassette tapes, music CDs, video games for the PS1, PS2, PS3 and PSP consoles, books, personal mementos and such like.
As regards cars, I am into every-day, run-of-the-mill kind of cars and also Russian (and before that - Soviet) classics.
