Hello all...
Well, I've been on the Purists site for quite some time now, not sure of just how long. For the most part, I've pretty much been a lurker, except in a few cases where I've felt compelled to post. Anyhow, I'm definitely happy to be here and to share my passion of watches and horology with you all.
Well, as for an introduction. I go by the name/moniker 'Seize', that's my real life nickname. I'm a San Diego native and that 's where I currently reside. Aside from watches, my other interests are: fitness and nutrition, automobiles, photography, pitbulls, food, graphic arts/design, beer, food, playing scrabble...and the list goes on=)
A few pictures

I enthusiastically look forward to interacting with you all!

Welcome! Let's start by introducing ourselves
I'm extremely excited to open and moderate the TimeOut forum! I wanted a place where we can all get to know each other. We obviously share a passion for watches. I'm sure that is not the only thing we have in common. So to start out, I'd like to invite yo...
heya movie star :P
here's a pic of me (i'm on the right) from our recent Peter Speake Marin Los Angeles Dinner. Hobbies: watches, watches, and more watches? i'm always up for a drink, preferable hard liquor or wine, whenever i have the free time cause it helps ease the stre...
How does Steve pull off the cool factor?
I obviously have not mastered the technique! I enjoy spending my time learning about watches, cooking, practicing karate...and looking foolish in pictures. Looking foward to spending some time here. Cheers, Mike...
I like the way you roll..
I like the way you roll Mike. It must have been casual Friday. Very nice. Bill
Actually that was the first date between Amy and I about 3 years ago...
I have no idea why she married me Cheers, Mike
I am Lord Arran and am part of this forum since October 2001. Some pics>
I think people know me best since I had commissioned the most complicated wrist watch ever built (Guinness book of records 2006, page 134), which based on a movement of Louis Elysee Piguet (end of 19th century) was first encased in a Platinum case by Fran...
First things first: I didn't pick 'Dr No' as my . . .
. . . log-in because of delusions of grandeur . . . . it's my nickname at work - I'm responsible for cancelling accounts at the company I work for (hint: #39 on the Fortune 500). My real passion is following the Rolling Stones on tour, with 34 shows under...
Actually he already gave me a central tourbillon
I just didn't want to make you jealous

i'm Adrian...here I am with Peter Speake-Marin having breakfast in NYC... i'm a photochemist by training...besides watches my other big hobby is audio...check out the following link...you have to scroll all the way to the bottom half... http://6moons.com/...
Thanks Adrian. Audio is certainly another Purist endeavor
and from what I hear can drain your wallet as fast or faster than watches. Welcome to the new forum!
oooh...you got that right...
i could have bought a couple of torubillions with the money i spent on audio for the past 10 years... ....but is a fun hobby and if i enjoy it, then the financial part doesn't matter at all... ah, and i forgot to tell you that i love cars as well...curren...

First I would like to congratulate the Purists on this forum and wish Steve all the best at his role. I am a simple orange farmer from Israel, but do have other occupations that demand my frequent travel around the globe. This is why I had the privilege t...

Welcome!
Do I know you from somewhere? Maybe another forum (perhaps a Porsche forum with a 6 in its name?)? Those wedding pics look familiar. You don't need to lurk, just jump on in. Everyone's friendly here.
Thanks for the welcome Steve...
Although I do post in a few car forums, I currently do not participate in any Porsche forums. I might have a few friends that do, not sure if they would have cross posted my pictures in any of them. Anyhow, I'm glad to be here and I think my days of lurki...
