I agree TRF is a special community and we share
our passion and hobby for some finer things in life!!!
Wear it and enjoy it in the best of health ...
I'm glad once again to have been of help in any way
possibly ... All the best !!!
to be honest, I have NEVER heard of an amazing story like this before.

TRF is NOT just a community....it is a BROTHERHOOD, and I feel very blessed and privileged to be a member of such class, generous, honest, and humble group of people.

ONward and forward!!..:)

Cheers Mario..from one Floridian to another....:)

Congrats on your new BLNR, and continued enjoyment of this wonderful forum.
I was sitting in my local coffee shop this morning and an elderly lady (in her 90's - she said) at the next table commented on my BLNR ... "What a lovely watch, such a pretty blue" ... and you know what ? - I agree with her... heh heh
Wear it in good health.
cheers

Great story. As a new member of the forum, I'm really honored to have the ability to be in such a great forum. It means a lot to me also. The watch community has an unbelievable core group of guys, in which many lie right here in this forum. Hats off to the classiest gentlemen of this forum. Have a great weekend!

Nice pickup! I got one a couple of weeks ago from another trusted seller. And I agree, the people here are very responsive to give you advice and help you with all your questions!
