Horological Meandering

Let’s pause for very brief moment and raise a cup of tea, or alternative beverage of your choice, to our good friend Art. Looking forward to the next 1,000 posts ! ...  

Dr. No and another 29,000 more

. . . the good ol' days. Everything . . . . . . seemed more wholesome then. Anachronistically, Art ...  

Art, mister Omega. Master of vintage Omega. No Omega movement that do not inspected and seen by his eyes. Before the speedmaster was on the moon, he knew it was a matter of time the watch shall be the first moonwatch. He knows 007 will later on wear Omega...

. . . on our Omega forum, Bruce! Ω

. . . can't wait! Best, Art

As I recently noted, your contribution here is so personal, and what it is all about. When I see your comments, I know I am always reading sincerity and candor.

. . . and appreciate participation from collegial members like yourself. Horological knowledge can be found in many communities, but the affability of ours is practically unique. Art

. . . this was coming.

. . . and I was a lurker for a few years before then. Being part of this community is deeply meaningful . . . all on account of the truly wonderful folks that congregate here. Art

From the Omega maestro...with no less intense zeal for pool and music. Thanks dear Dr. No 🍻

. . . but Dr No's doctor put an end to that. 😕 Now that the Stones are nearing the end of their run, at least there's still pool and Omegas to keep me busy!

. . . he's up 222K. Let me know when you figure out how he does it ;-) . . .

Thank you so much for your generous sharing of your deep knowledge about Omega and watches, your fine sense of humor and I specially thank you for your friendship. Keep more K posts coming my dear friend! A big Hug for you! Abel

Thank you for all your contributions. Regards, George (who’s wearing an Omega while writing this)

. . . much appreciated!

For this milestone and making this place a refuge to retain sanity

. . . let me know when you're in town, and I'll work out the details. Warmest, Art

As soon as all borders reopen and we don’t have to have to do those ridiculous 14 day quarantines..... Hopefully with the vaccines this year, things can go close to normal again soon.

Congratulations Art! Keep them coming. How many years now on this site? Kev

. . . come April, fourteen as a moderator. That's a longer commitment than I've had with any of my girlfriends by a factor of six! 😳

early next month for 30,000 ! 👍

I can't think of a better reason to break my non-posting streak. Well done, Art; you're the best!

. . . but appreciated nonetheless. See you this summer? Warmest, Art

But yes, all the leaves are brown, and the sky is gray, and I’ve been dreaming of you-know-where. 🙂

. . . when I was the man. [Dr No's high school daze, ca '74] ...  

. . . kilos.

. . . the Dulux. Christmas gift from Dad, 1968. We were in Hong Kong, and I remember our visit to a small shop that sold all sorts of items including watches. Still have it, but in need of servicing . . . ...  

. . . so remembering was easy.

30k is just a feet away....bravo !! Hope we meet in a post-covid GTG soon. Best, Mahesh.,

A beverage he might drink - 2018 Arya Darjeeling Many years Art, many more years. Mike PS what watch am I wearing? ...

Except, we love having you with us! You are a pillar of this place. Thank you for 29.000!

. . . I love being here. You guys are the best, hands down! 🤝

That is one big milestone...thanks for sharing your passion on Omega - one of the reason I started reading about Omega & understand its history ! Best, mahesh.,

will be great to meet you in person....
