Reached my first 1k posts...Thanks all PuristS!!!
I'd been mostly a lurker on this forum for the most part when I first discovered this site years ago. 1k posts seemed an impossible journey as I did not come to this site often initially and I only enjoyed reading various posts for the most part.
I remembered things completely changed when I found a lot of information from PuristS experts' posts on the Montblanc 1858 Tachymeter ~ 2 years ago because I was very interested in that watch...That's when I started to dive into this forum on a very regular basis and discovered a lot more wealth of expert knowledge, analysis, feedback that I did not know before, especially across all possible brands....I also started to make some friends thru this forum.. This is when I knew this is the best place on the internet for watch lovers and it receives all new comers with wide open arms and boasts camaraderie...
Now, it's become a part of my daily routine that I need to browse thru this forum on a daily basis..or let's say...at least hourly... 
, whether to receive or provide opinions, to wow at amazing pieces or in depth analysis, or what have you.. It's just a very enjoyable experience altogether..
, whether to receive or provide opinions, to wow at amazing pieces or in depth analysis, or what have you.. It's just a very enjoyable experience altogether..Last but not the least, I've also learned the danger of being the vlad casualty here, whether intentionally or unintentionally..which is also the most lethal on this forum..
At the end of the day, it's all fun! So I want to thank all on this forum for such a wonderful experience and look forward to spending more time here...

Lol 😆 jumping seconds Rollie’s powered by 2 batteries...
I’m going to expect more at 5k post. Rgds Raymond
Hey, the batteries are for my mini Dremel tool, not the Folex
I have a lot of other watches that I could give to mj23 but none so notorious as this one.
Lol.
I will take anything, Mike. Especially considering we are local to each other. Lol. 😂
Thanks, Raymond.
Am I supposed to get something? 😉 Then I’d better work on my next 1k...😂
Congratulations.
I'm so glad that you'd decided to dive in. Otherwise we could not have met. Cheers! Luis
A real pleasure to read your message.
Congrats on you "First" 1000 post. Looking forward to the next. Ahh- the Vlad factor. WE are all under his influence. LOL Best Bill
Thanks, 9580.
And I have come to know you as “flipper” 😉 as well from your past posts!! Thanks for all your Patek posts and learned from you in that arena.
That is great! Congratulations, and thank you!

And for Vlad...you seem to intentionally skip some more info there.... I was hoping to see more words of wisdom..from Vlad...
Thanks, Obeezy! You're being too kind...
My moniker is the greatest b-ball player of all time...past, present and future...
Great job, mj23!
Hope this is just the first of many milestones for you here. A warning about being vladed: oh, nevermind. I'm sure it is way too late.
Thanks, Padj.....
lol..yap..the warning is WAYYYY too late...you did your share to me already on the Lange side....
Congratulations on this significant milestone MJ23!
Always a pleasure reading you here - looking forward to many more posts and watches here. As for Vladding, you need to give as good as you get
Thanks, KMII. Always enjoy reading your detail reports of Montblanc watches and admire your knowledge.
As for Vladding, I am still in the learning process..novice level, I'd say!
Ah, another victim of Vlad's neck bites! . . .
. . . his enthusiasm really is infectious, isn't it? ...
