My passion for watches started only a few years ago. I used to have a regular watch (Citizen pilot watch) that I wore everyday but just used it for seeing what time it is. I don't really remember what triggered my watch passion (or obsession..) a few years ago but I think I bought a Seiko SKX and things went uphill from there. 

I am interested in any kind of watch. Mechanical, quartz, from inexpensive to the established luxury brands. I am also developing an interest in mechanical clocks. I recently visited the museum in Greenwich and started to become fascinated about clocks and general horology history as well.

I was born and grew up in the Netherlands. I went to college for a year in Michigan and, to make a long story short, moved to Michigan in 1994 and have lived there most of the time. I also lived in Southern California for 2 years. So spending half my life in the Netherlands and half in the USA makes me something like a European/American hybrid.

So that's me in a few paragraphs. I have (virtually) met many other watch and car enthusiasts on social media and forums and hope to do the same here on Horology World.

I am commonly known as 'nordwulf' or 'wulf' on several car and watch forums.

I am an IT Manager during the day and have been working in IT for the last 20 years. I founded and developed SaabWorld over the last  7+ years and happy to see it's still going strong. It's not the busiest and largest Saab forum but there are some really great helpful members and great content. Quality is more important than quantity. http://saabworld.net and http://saabworld.org/

Other passions besides horology are travel, sailing, motorbikes, any vehicle on 4 wheels, overlanding, hiking, camping and photography

You can also find me in other places on the interwebs:
