Team,
This is my 10.000 post and this is a short report about my learning process here.
I started here with a simple JLC Amvox 1, that survived even a robbery. This is my keeper of the keepers, for sure.
My passion for the JLC Amvox line, escalated with time. 11 on this picture but I got the 12 and I think that I'm done.
Passion for JLC, continues.
Omega was an even present on my tastes.
My tastes evolved with time.
This evolution continued.
Until I got this object of desire. No words to describe the day that I got it.
My other beloved brand IWC, followed. I consider this Portugesier one of my most beautiful pieces.
Jaeger-LeCoultre could not stay behind. Amazing watch, by all counts.
I didn't forgot the basic Omega sports watches.
Some, more sophisticated than others.
Love to make a nice set.
Without forgetting my love for IWC. This Big Pilot is amazing.
But always back to Omega.
Then, my wife started: Not a simple one (Platinum cased!).
She is hooked on skeleton pieces.
This one, I envy her:
My learning and the friendship that I got here, cannot be described by words.
The most important part was to learn that humankind can work together, giving some focus and mutual respect.
Does not matter political views, color, religion, country. We are a single species and that's great.
My warm thanks to all PuristS and I hope to stay here ... forever.
Nilo
