Two goals achieved…

 
 By: jporos : May 16th, 2017-14:15
Earlier this spring, I was informed by the president of my university that he had accepted the recommendations of five outside reviewers, two committees, my director, my dean, and the provost to promote me to full professor. After 20 years at my universit...

Best way to celebrate the milestone is to get a watch - right choice ! Best, Mahesh.,

Truly the only way to celebrate.

Thanks Mahesh!

Big congratulations, first on the professorship and second on the watch commemorating the same.

And great write-up of the MIH watch. Simplicity is so pleasant in an often unnecessarily hyper complex world of horology. Cheers, John

Thanks, John!

Simplicity is also often more difficult to achieve.

It is one right road.

The MIH is now very dear to me.

Not my style but nice industrial design.

Appreciate that they stuffed all the calendar elements in one corner of the watch and not clutter it around as others would do.

It is actually pretty amazing...

 
 By: jporos : May 17th, 2017-08:30
how they stuffed all the calendar elements into one corner using only nine pieces. Thanks Jomni1!

Congratulations on achieving such a commendable milestone.

Thanks Zabreg!

We know how many blood sweat and tears is in this As Prof. of Architecture if I'm not mistaken you could not choose better piece to celebrate Kudos D

Damjan, you know the struggle...

 
 By: jporos : May 17th, 2017-08:35
thank you so much!

Huge congrats, Mr. Professor for this milestone and for the watch!

Both will follow you for a lifetime! Although I don't like the design of the watch because I am not a great fan of the industrial design, I must confess: it is not a common watch and obviously suits you very well!! Yours, Adam

Congratulations, Prof. Poros!...

...I am also trying from Assistant to Associate Professor (also architecture!)--and what hardship! Enjoy the MIH; like it has been said, you could not have chosen a better watch to commemorate this promotion. It is in my opinion, a very architectural watc... 

Cardio, that first step of tenure is tough.

 
 By: jporos : May 17th, 2017-08:43
I hope that your chair and colleagues are giving you the support you need. Let us know when you make that milestone.

Huge congratulations on your promotion...

Jporos. The milestone purchase is a excellent decision. All the best to you. Best Regards Edward

Thanks Edward!

I have been looking forward to both for a long time.

Big congrats!

 
 By: rnaden : May 18th, 2017-04:18
Both on the promotion and a very suitable watch to celebrate the milestone. It takes a real horological fan to appreciate the MIH, and is well suited.

Well done. Congrats, Prof!

A 20 year commitment to anything these days, is a testament to your fortitude and ability. Well done. The MIH is a brilliant watch with which to celebrate, I whole heartedly concur ;-) Have enjoyed this for 10yrs now, and have been wearing it for almost 2...  

Thanks Tim!
