Always humble. Without fanfare we're introduced to your new additions. And unlike many that make it seem like "yeah whatever, I got another gold watch look at me.." I can tell you actually enjoy your watches and it's not for show, "investing" or just having the latest and greatest.
Enjoy in the best of health.
And of course love the pics, keep them coming.

Great post Rashid. I absolutely agree with you. There are many here like Ken who have watch collections valued in the many hundreds of thousands of dollars, yet they still have the class and dignity to rejoice in even the smallest watch purchase by members (like me) who will never come close to their collections. They do so because they aren't collecting for show. They collect for the joy and passion they have for the hobby. And they share that with us. I would love to join these men for beers one evening and talk about all things, not just watches. I bet it would be a fascinating conversation.
