re: Howdy
Hello Horo!
People like you make this site so great and it's been so much fun the past 3 years. It's always so cool to read a post and discover that although we all are miles away, we have share the same interests and passions. The community and friendship that has developed here has been amazing, thank you for being part of it!

Happy 3rd Anniversary to DRMW as TimeOut moderator
Ming, Thank your for another great year as moderator of TimeOut, you have done a fantastic job. How do you keep up with so many things? This past year was really special, getting to meet so many PuristS friends at IGOTT2. All the best, JerryW ps I feel li...
Wow! Times flies. Already 3 years, Ming? Congrats, it is not an easy job.
Making good posts, animating the forum, involving yourself in discussions, sometimes polemics, doing the Sheriff's dirty job, there are thousand opportunities to give up. You didn't. All the best, and happy B.DAY, Ming. Nico
Time flies when you are having fun!
Thank you Nicolas! Can't believe that it's already been 3 years and every year it gets even better and better! Hey, we all still talk about our crazy good time at Lutetia, we're going to have to do it again soon!...
That was a great moment!
First tilme I met TM in the flesh, first time I met someone who loves ice cream so much that he would even eat an Oyster one! Best, Ming, and you know that you're always welcome here. Nicolas.
Thank you!
Glad to hear that you are enjoying the site, look forward to meeting you at a GTG! -MW

This year has been awesome!
Thanks for remembering! Yes, this year has been the best!!! Got to meet even more PuristS in person from around the world at IGOTT2 in Vegas so it's been a fantastic Year #3 on the TimeOut forum. And I see that it'll only get even better! Thank you everyo...
Horo, Great combo.
We have double twins. My very first AP was a RG NF and I still have it. JerryW This message has been edited by JerryW on 2011-09-17 14:36:23 My first AP This message has been edited by JerryW on 2011-09-17 14:39:51...
And in those days, a AP limited Edition is REALLY a limited edition
I originally had the regular triple date, but I managed to swap it for a 1997 Hong Kong Handover, which is a most memorable time for me, when I had to visit Hong Kong for work every 3 weeks. That's when I discovered Canto-pop and the Hong Kong Turf Club!!...
You and Jerry are men of great taste...I am honored and elevated by association. ;)-
The triple date is my first ROO, and I have the same JLC caliber in an Omega speedy and one other watch which I forget. The Offshores were of good size then. We should start a smiler thread on AP forum. Best, Horo
Ming, My belated congrats
Your leadership and dedication made this sight a great success. Looking fwd to many more of the same
Appreciate the kind words...
We'll celebrate by hitting the range and capping some rounds off! -MW

Happy 3rd DRMW!
And thanks for making TimeOut such a fun forum with all kinds of interesting posts. Regards, ED-209
It seems like just yesterday that I created this forum and then mediocrely moderated it
I'll take the credit for having it here, but you have done so much better of a job moderating than I ever could. It is not easy! Very well done and congrats. Best, Steve
re: it seems like just yesterday
As my good friend and mentor, the late Mr. Charles E. Lloyd, once said: 'Lead, Follow, or Get Out of the Way' ThePuristS and PuristSPro has been very blessed with such great people from around the world, their posts have made our forum so much fun to read...
At least you were involved in the formation of TO.
Thanks for getting it started Steve. I never saw the site until I met DRMW but I bet it was much better than you think. JerryW
You laid strong foundations, Steve ...
... and TimeOut has continued to grow with community participation. It's still a great place to hang out amongst friends. Hope life is good. Regards, Andrew
what can I say.....
My our bluetooth forever stay charged full powered! Looking forward to more adventures like our Burj Al Arab 'incident'! Hey, "It's 'cause we're PuristS and that's what we do!" LOL! -MW

I know nothing!
I wasn't there......no one has proof......and I deny it ever happened! -MW
The first generation builds...
...the second generation consolidates, and the third generation squanders. SteveH built a great forum here and you, Ming, have used that platform as the springboard for TO to be a 'must - read'. You are a natural! Thanks for all that you do - don't ever h...

This forum has always been community driven, it's all the great PuristS like you who participate and post on the forum who have created such a wonderful atmosphere! I'm here to tag along for the ride. -MW
Congrats Ming!
When you get a chance (and I'm back in town) we'll have to take a little time out and hit the range.
Three years and counting...
Congrats Ming! Keep up the good work. Three years already? Almost a bit hard to believe it's already been three years. Thank you for all the fun on this forum... kind of reminds me (and other PuristSPro members) that there is some fun outside of watches. ...
Congratulations Ming
I come here to peruse, read and learn about travel,food, guns, cars, etc.Always entertaining and thanks for moderating this forum. cheers,dreamer

Glad to get to know you via PuristSPro! The wonderful thing about this forum is we have so many who are passionate about their hobbies outside of horology and when they share, you can learn so much. Look forward to reading your posts my friend! -MW
WOW! Congrats DRMW!
Thank you for your hard work and contributions to this forum! I can also attribute a few additional pounds that I gained due to your food posts!!!! I sorta equate TimeOut to a Sports section in the paper! Must read! Thanks for everything my friend! Lookin...

It's been a fantastic 3 years and the best is yet to come! Appreciate your support my friend! -MW
Three years on the job? Time to celebrate! . . .
. . . let me know when you've got an afternoon free, MW - there's a pool hall in the West Valley with one billiard table and a few snooker tables. How cool is that? Thanks, Jerry, for remembering ;-) . . .
Hey, Ming ...
Thanks for everything you do around here. TimeOut remains a favorite place to share activities and interests away from horology. And it has continued to evolve and improve under your steady guidance. I look forward to many more interesting threads on life...
Congrats, Ming and great new catch, Jerry!
