Hi, PuristS. Today (September 7th) is my birthday. I was born a day like this of 1974. I would like to excuse myself for posting photographs of just one watch lately, but they're hard times to me. I must have the doubtful privilege of being the poorest member of all mechanical horology international fora. Anyway, I'm grateful to life for being alive and kicking still. Not only. As a famous Cuban songwriter sings: "amo a una mujer clara que amo y me ama". Thank you all for your comprehension and friendship. Cheers.

happy birthday!!......
Happy Birthday my friend. That is a good looking Heuer Chronograph. Poor and rich are all in the mind. A couple of years ago, I recall Bill Gates in a slum in India spending sometime with a family of four that lived in less than 300sq.ft but looked extrem...
Happy Birthday SwissMade !
I always post pics of the same few 'cheap' watches i have ... and you don't even want to know what i did the last weeks ... :-( Poor Filip
First of all ...
Congratulations! Second thought: Is it only me, who can see a beautiful and interesting watch that belongs to you? Oliver
Happy birthday Swiss Made
And all you need to bring here is passion and enthusiasm. You'll always be made welcome. Andrew
Aficionado.
I got all the enthusiasm and passion untouched, Andrew. In the last years I've spent a lot of hours reading hodinkee, equation du temps, fratello watches, gianvittorioheuer, etc. from A to Z.
It's ont about money, it's about passion.
In any event, I wish you a happy birthday and that is a great looking Tag. Keep on kicking and posting on PuristSPro. Best regards, George
Happy Birthday
Have a great day. You have one very nice looking chronograph which I would be proud to own and cherish. I am on puristspro to learn and for the friendship. There are many watches at price points that I would never be able to afford, but that does not keep...
Nothing wrong with that, my friend.
And this Heuer is a pleasure to see. There will be better times, and then maybe a sister to this Carrera? Another Carrera, Heuer, or? This watch will be special one for you, a trusty companion which shared the good and the bad times... A sentumental keepe...
Merci, mon ami.
When I was 13 years old, my idols were Dominique Wilkins and Larry Bird. Five years later, I used to admire Woody Allen a lot. David Russell, Jimmy Raney and James Emery are three guitarists I've listened with pleasure and devotion. But nowadays, if I adm...
Gracias.
Thank you all for having read and answered my message in a very friendly way, as usual.
Happy birthday!
that's a nice Heuer. Horology can indeed be a very costly thing, but you can enjoy smaller things as well and there are still some hidden treasures! Matt
Whether one watch . . .
. . . or many, or even none, it's the purity of intentions that matter; on that count, you are most welcome here. Happy birthday, Swiss Made, and may your wishes for future additions come true. Cordially, Art
Thank you, Art.
I adore mechanical watches. I love women and vintage watches, not necessarily in that order ;-)
Plaza de toros de Madrid.
I used to listen to his records when I was 18-year-old. I saw him once in concert in Las Ventas (Madrid). Thank you for your comment. I agree: this chronograph is a watch that is worth keeping.
