Hi friends
I’m so pleased to be back here after a few weeks off line.
I want to thank you all for keeping the forum running so smoothly. You really are a wonderful bunch. I mean that from the bottom of my heart.
My absence from here has been involuntary, as per my previous post.
Luckily things here are heading in the right direction for us. I don’t want to go in to details but it has been a very difficult time. However, I expect to be back here as normal again.
I want to thank the many of you who have been so kind to write to me. I highly appreciate each and every message. I’m sorry I didn’t respond but there was just no time.
Enough of that, let’s get back to our shared love and passion for watches.
I just had a brief photo session today with my Tokyo Fly Back. It is so difficult to photograph. There are to many reflections and small details that don’t translate. I did have fun with it and this is what matters.
I love this quirky little watch more and more. And I have been wearing it almost daily for the past month. It has a warmth to it that feels almost vintage except it also a touch of modernity with your engraved sub registers. Hard to put a finger on it but I enjoy it so much I can’t take it off at night. I’m sure you all know that feeling 🤗
I wish you all a wonderful weekend
Christian
