A long overdue thank you!
As a long time "non-contributor" but ardent follower of this forum ( it was in a different format when I first discovered it quite some years ago) I thought it was about time that I posted my thanks to all who contribute their opinions, extensive knowledge, acquisitions and, of course, amazing photographs.
This forum is, and has been for a long time, my evening relaxation. I am posting on the JLC forum as, after browsing the general information on the front page I first delve into the wonders of Jaeger le Coultre; probably my favourite brand. From there it's onto Rolex, Omega and other forums.
As this is my first post and probably my last; I have no specialist knowledge of watches just a small, much-loved collection (some modern and some vintage) I wanted at least to thank all you regular contributors for the enjoyment given to me and, I suspect, many other "silent watchers".
Regards,
Kev

Thank you for your welcome

I teased you ;-)
Well, that\'s already a nice collection you own. I think you shouldn\'t hesitate to take pictures and post them on the forum. Just give your feeling fuelled by passion that\'s what we love ;-) Best wishes Alkiro

I'll encourage you too - here's a Roamer
I know nothing about the brand. I just have this see-thru watch. Cazalea ...
Thanks cazalea
What a curious looking watch but I love the dial. Don't know much about Roamer myself just that my father bought one in 1957 and although it's looking it's age I still wear it regularly. I will post some watch pictures when I figure out how to do it! Rega...

For your very kind and welcoming words. As I've said I've enjoyed participating in the background for a long time; indeed I sometimes feel I know some of the regular contributors so much do I enjoy reading their posts. I particularly like the camerarderie...
Welcome Kev!
I was a "lurker" here for many years before I took the plunge and started to engage actively. Never regret that I started - on the contrary, makes it even more interesting and fun! Best Blomman
Thank you blomman

I am similar to you.
