I’ve had enough. Will be posting a final SOC soon. But had enough of TZ - good to meet those I have - keep the flame burning and all that.
May go off to watch school, so need to concentrate on studies - next life chapter is beginning for me.

Enjoy your time offline and remember, you can check out, but you can never leave.
All the best.
Good luck for the future. This place ain’t what it used to be sadly

I hope you change your mind Martyn, always enjoyed your contributions, particularly your in depth watch reviews.

Will be shame to see you go, the in-depth review's of different watch brands has been enlightening
All the best in the future, hopefully you'll be back with a Vacheron right up
Hope to you see you come back, without your review I would not have got the zenith! but then I would have alot more spare cash! so not sure if you did me a favour or not really!!
anyway was always good reading your posts
Remember to take your towel, good luck with any plans and hopes for the future.
Sorry to see you go. I have also enjoyed reading your reviews.
Best of luck with watch school.
The quality of your reviews and the accompanying photos are always first rate. I always look out for your posts as your opinion is always valid. A shame you are leaving but hopefully you will be back. The 5146 will be my first Patek when I hit 40 in 5 years so I share your tastes!
Good luck!
Another here who liked reading your reviews. Good luck.
I can only agree with the above. The Discovery 4 post in SC really says it all about TZ at the moment!Originally Posted by RobDad
Martyn sorry to see You leave take very good care My Friend and pop in now and then I have always enjoyed your contributions best wishes for the future.
Perhaps we all dip in and out as other parts of our real lives dictate.
There is still a massive amount of good here on tz-uk and I hope we do see you again.
Good luck with this next stage and don't forget your Babel Fish.

Indeed.
It's not that bad here, really. ;-)
That’s a shame as I enjoyed your posts and meeting you at the Surrey GTG earlier this year. Best wishes on your next chapter in life.

Nooo can’t be true - end of an era. All that skill and knowledge, let’s hope there is a rethink.

I hope this ends up being a sabatical rather than a departure.
Most likely. There are things to deal with over the next few months - with take stock then.
Ignoring the BP, I do find TZ-UK quite balanced - where members generally look out for each other, and I for one appreciate that.
Thank you for your review posts over the years, and good luck with your next chapter.
All the best. Don't be a stranger.
Have you learnt a lot from his posts in your fortnight here or are you being a smart-arse?
Good luck Martyn, although I'm not convinced you have all the requisite skills to be a TZUK resident watchmaker... I mean, you'll have to work harder in the alienating customers classes...
Papa hotel, he is a personal friend and so interact regularly on watch stuff for many years. He is the reason I joined tz after a long time looking in.

Sorry to see you go, Martyn - not that we have interacted a great deal, but I have always enjoyed your posts, and indeed, consider it your fault that I am so obsessed with all things Skywalker X-33. I hope it's a sabbatical, as others have said, but in any case, I hope the things that need sorting get duly sorted.
Oh, and if you see Wowbagger the Infinitely Prolonged, tell him he's already insulted me. ;-)
And?
Good for you. Here's to another fortnight-long era!
Best wishes for your next chapter. I've enjoyed your posts, be good to see you back if that works for you. If not, thanks for your contribution to the forum.
Good luck, from another who always enjoyed your collection & posts.
Can't believe I'm the first, but surely no need for watch school when the answer to the Ultimate Question(s) of Life, the Universe, and Everything is obviously 42!
All the best!!
Sure you will back when you have had a break, which is often needed!!
So will miss his content but will still get it first hand off the forum

Good luck Martyn
Hope everything goes well for you
Good luck and all the best

The thing is, many of us are a trifle obsessive (say no more!) and walking away from the hobby can be liberating.
I was into Audio for thirty years; then one day I woke-up and thought ‘enough.’ Never looked back, just walked away. I kept many of those old friends, indeed some have even graduated to watches......
So good luck...time for a change.
That's a real shame Martyn, I'm not around much any more with some RL issues but it's sad to see some of the best members departing for good recently.
Hope you are back soon Martyn. We have a similar taste in watches and I always appreciate reading your reviews
Best of luck for the future. I too hope to see you back.
Enjoyed reading your stuff.

Can't imagine why people take a break.........
Started out with nothing. Still have most of it left.
Good Luck Martyn
So long from another occasional poster but avid reader of your reviews Martin. Distance lends perspective so maybe see you online again down the road.

Look forward to seeing your SOC. It's always interesting to see what people are content with.
Maybe a southern gtg is in order. Far from the madding crowd.
Totally understand how you feel Martyn, hardly ever on here myself anymore. Good luck for the future
Best of luck. Have enjoyed your posts and your taste in watches.
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
All the best. Haven’t read any of your watch reviews (yet - thanks for the link), but have still enjoyed your contributions.
Still hoping you’ll keep us updated on your new life progress!!
Hopefully you'll be back when the time is right, you seem like a real watch guy and this place needs people like you, is there a big reason for actually leaving other than life changes, as in there is no need to delete your account and properly leave is there?.
All the best, have really enjoyed your posts and input into the forum. If you ever plan or want to visit Bremont HQ let me know.
I can understand this, I'm going through a period of disenchantment at the moment, which may have been caused by my impending hospital admission.
Eddie
Whole chunks of my life come under the heading "it seemed like a good idea at the time".
Eek. I hope it's something relatively easily manageable, although I well know that all hospital stays are unpleasant at some level.
Good luck with it!
I can only echo the sentiments of, surely, every other member of your forum and hope that all is well Eddie.
People come and go on forums, and that is what it is - nobody's bigger than the team - but, given that you are the hub that all of this rotates around, it's never going to be good that you become disenchanted...
...this place remains remarkable among its peers and that is, in no small part, due to the core membership but in the largest part down to how you have steered this ship.
Hope everything goes well.
Time moves on and things change. Thanks for all your valuable contributions. Good luck in your future ventures.
