5,000 posts - didn't see that coming...

Average of 5 posts/day.

Great community - thanks guys and gals!

As I type this I realize that I cannot make post # 5,000 and not include a photo, ergo the watch goes off the wrist and out and out with the iPhone. As it happens I'm actually wearing my old trusty Submariner today, the very watch that started it all, A-series Submariner 16610 from 1999. The cyclops was removed well over a decade ago.



Cheers,

P.
