Horological Meandering

I don’t want to make a big fuss but obviously cannot ignore this milestone either. Being part of this community for 5 years now has made a big impact on my life. Yes, this is all about watches at first sight, but in fact, it really is about the people, ...  

The GTGs as you mention, are the greatest part of this community. Making real friends after knowing virtually, is the highlight of everything we talk about here.

Yes, I remember this GTG as it was yesterday - a wonderful moment to soon be lived again! A BIG thank you for all your inspiring contribution! Best Blomman

if anyone has been inspirational then YOU
