My early ANIMAL WATCH collection

[shaun]

Just completed my early 90's Animal watch collection consisting of a mint W001 with original strap (the very first model Animal produced), W002, W003, W004 (pro) and the W005. The W004 Pro is my favorite. I gave only £13.50 for it as the chrono feature needed reparing which I did. It has been fitted with a new silicone rubber Animal strap which looks like Tyre tread! This Pro is so well made it came with a 10 year warranty when new (you don't even get that with a Rolex!) Even though I own vintage Rolex and Tags, I still love this collection as they go with my 90's retro rides. Only problem is deciding which one to wear!

Got to love a good watch - only thing is, none of them tell the same time. OCD fail!

Just found out that the orange strap on the W005 is a rare 'dealer only' strap from 1997 and wasn't offered for sale to the general public.

Shed, the yellow faced W002 was the only one of the collection that I had to pay a lot more than expected, everyone seemed to want it and eventually cost more than the 3, 4 and 5 put together!

Forgot I had them until the other day.
