First off, who is Magrette Timepieces? Well simply put they are a New Zealand watch micro-brand based in Auckland and for those that don't know a micro-brand is a watch brand that makes a limited number of watches per year. They also usually used movements from the major brands, like Seiko or Miyota, or one of the Swiss brand movements. They then design their own dial, case, sometimes bracelet and straps.

Why did I delve into the world of watch collecting? Well, it's a tale woven with a passion for timepieces and the allure of building a captivating collection. Once upon a time, I had a modest assortment of 4 or 5 watches that adorned my wrist. However, life led me to part ways with most of them, leaving only one faithful timekeeper by my side. Little did I know, this decision would later haunt me when my last remaining watch was pilfered from my possession after a mere year.

I like Lego I can not lie... Not all models I this list are Lego. (I will say if they are are Lego or not). I also have not taken photo's of all my models and will put in an official image if I have not got a photo of my build. I will eventually taken photo's of all my builds over time. Also I don't just collect the big black special official kits I also collect certain "City" and "Technic" kits.
I do have one gripe the grinds my wheels... Stop calling it "Legos", it is simply Lego. Is it "Legos" or simply "Lego"? The Lego company, the mastermind behind these iconic toy, has a firm stance on this matter. They adamantly maintain that the correct plural form is "LEGO bricks" or "LEGO sets," treating "Lego" as an adjective rather than a noun.
I don't have a huge number of sets. The above set count are only those sets that have been made and registered. There are several still not made and or not registered. Also does not count spare parts, 2nd hand Lego, or non Lego sets
