Time flies when you're having fun...
And here I am with 8.000 posts. Spending time with all of you is seemingly a lot of fun, otherwise I would surely neither be here so often, nor have posted so profligately 
So thanks for the patience shown towards me, the knowledge shared with me (and I tend to be very curious ) and for this nice second home I have found at PuristSPro!
) and for this nice second home I have found at PuristSPro!As my horological journey has not progressed much in practice (no significant acquisitions lately), I will fall back onto Umberto Eco's concept of an anti-library (the books not yet read - having a value of their own) and post a horological equivalent for me - a watch I do not yet have but would not mind seeing in my collection at some point 
And the 8HF could be seen as an oblique reference to the 8.000, if you squint a bit
Thanks for having me!
Wait a minute, didn't we celebrate your 4000th post yesterday? :)))
Thanks for being there, for being you, and for all you are doing here, my friend, to feed the fire.
Much appreciated.
All the best,
Nicolas
No, no, no...
I am still far off your pace

Don't say I did not try!! LOL.
Actually, I am very glad you passed, so we can be in this exclusive club together when the time comes for you.
Thanks for all the great posts, and friendship you express to everyone.
That will be great!
Glad you decided to keep yours even though I would have liked to get it (wasn't ready at the time) But when the time comes, we'll need to plan an 8HF GTG
Thanks for your kind words!

Thank you very much K.

I'm sure we'll get many more opportunities to meet :)
It was a great pleasure for sure, Massi!
Keep in touch: if there are no impediments, it would be very nice (perhaps for the geese a little less)! [nt]
No message body
Thanks Raymond!
As for my honorific, been quite chuffed. The only thing I'm still looking for is my pet hydra Rororo
8000 in 2 years?!
And not even an extra star?!? That's a bloody shame...
Seriously: congrats and thank you for all the nice conversations. Hopefully we will meet in November

8k is a big achievement
Congratulations are in order. Thanks for keeping this place fun and active. I try to keep up with the examples you, among others, show...but I'm a long way off ;-)
Here's to many more k's!
Happy 8K, my friend!

Great to have you with us here!

Discovering GP in the 1990s has definitely helped the post count some
