    Post no. 5,001

    So this is my 5,001st post since December 2004.

    How time flies!

    I’ve learned a lot, had a lot of fun, engaged with a lot of members who I feel I know even though (with one or two exceptions) we’ve never met... it’s been a blast.

    Oh, and I’ve bought and sold a lot of watches, of course!

    When I get my act together I’ll do an up-to-date SOTC - not that it’s finished!

    Thanks everyone.

    Simon

    Good to have you around, Simon. We've had some decent conversations in the past. One particular occasion was in 2014 whilst I was sitting in the airport waiting for my flight to up sticks to China!

    I welcome your balanced, calm and quite British contributions (indeed, the same applies to several of the responders on this thread) - especially in these more volatile days on the forum. Keep up the good work!

    Well done on 5k to a long term member. I hear stories about "the old days" from Nev, my local watch buddy. For my part have found you welcoming since I joined some 3 years ago, despite our polar opposite opinions on NATO straps. Oh, and we both have a 116660 on rubber b.

    Well done Simon, always enjoyed your posts and our exchanges and your collection of massive orange watches

    Don't look at my post count, too much bs...

    Yes, we will have to agree to disagree on the subject of cheap nylon . However you can’t be all bad if you have your DSSD on rubber!

    Thanks Dave, RAJEN & Neil. I try to post only when I have something vaguely worth contributing, I guess!

    Ken, I’ve actually only had three orange dialled watches, you know! Only one remaining...
