Been out for a while...

Now I'm back. I see a lot of things have been going on. JJ got a Platty?

Some people are no longer around... wow!

I stopped visiting watch sites as I almost lost my desire for watches. With the scams going on that I see being reported at watchnet... its just been crazy.

In any case, no new watches for me. Still have my trusty SD, Omega SMP Chrono and the good old Omega SMP (bond).

Hello to the old timers and greetings to the new comers!

Regards,

Vernon
