I would give a - say - "A+ excellent" for this POTM Luis ;-)
Very interesting indeed to get more context beyond the "Avatar". I strongly recognize the fact that if your wife supports your hobby, it can have some nice side-effects for her as well........

What a nice and enjoyable reading Luis!! I congratulate again our dear Damjan...
... for his idea of this series introducing our colleagues in passion through these interesting interviews. PuristS is a Forum about watches no doubt, but I feel that the real attractive and delight in reading and participating in it is the people which w...

Luis6 , I loved your stories, it makes PP membership feel so much more like a community. Together with CC\'s first post, this is shaping up to be a terrific series.
A great read Luis my bro
I enjoyed your horological journey a lot and am glad I welcomed you warmly on puristspro Montblanc forum before I fondly remember those days my friend Cheers Robin

Fantastic to know a bit more about you, Luis.
And another Aquarian in the spotlight! It is our Age! Thank you Baron D for a truly fine idea!
Great post from a very interesting series ...
Congratulations to Luis6 and to Mr. D. (now D from Dude?). Cheers, Nilo
You know, that or....
uh, His Dudeness, or uh, Duder, or El Duderino if you're not into the whole brevity thing.
Very enjoyable read, Luis
and great to learn more about you. So glad we share the same dream GP and yes, I can live with 38mm perfectly fine The Photo with Darko is a killer, I'm still laughing. CC
Hi Luis6, I'm an Aquarius too! That says I'm really smart like you :)
I visited Taiwan only once in 2009, to the mighty company that makes IC chips for almost everybody....TSomething.... Nice "reading" you. Rgds Raymond
I believe that company you visited is TSMC,
Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company.
Always a pleasure to interact with you, dear Luis!
Thank you for this personal "outing" of yourself and your way into watches! Happy you are a part of this forum! Best, my friend Blomman
I love the line about your Dad knowing little about watches . . .
. . . and caring less. I mean, he knew the Rolex needed servicing at some point down the road, but, just like my Dad, probably didn't give a __i_. Pops had a Seiko he'd been wearing for something like forty years. It stopped running properly, so he made a...
$400 for bringing a $40 watch back to life. That's the kind of thing we WIS would do.
There are watches like your Dad's Seiko that absolutely deserve to be treasured in that way.
I believe the home run!
As Clint Eastwood says, the Sisters of the Poor could hit one out with an aluminum bat ;-) Thanks for sharing with us!
Thanks for sharing your journey
Really an enjoyable read. Hope to meet you in Taiwan soon.
Great interview Luis6....
I like the sense of humour and the passion for watches. Best Regards Edward
Finally got a chance to read this, great interview!
It's great to get to know you better and learn about your watch journey, very fascinating! I might be going to Taiwan close to end of this year, maybe we can finally meet up!=)
Enjoyed learning more about you Luis...
From one academic to another, good luck with the end of the term and enjoy your summer break! jporos

Summer break look aeons away Luis is great guy and hardcore Purist as well Thanks for reading Best D
One big PuristS family.
Like many others, I thoroughly enjoy reading more about my fellow watch enthusiasts... Like finding that I'm not the only teacher in the forum... Like seeing the common interests we share... Like finding more to the person than what's strapped to his wris...
I must give you my both thumbs up for what you say about this site.
I can't put it any better! Agree with every of your word.
Luis, I only found this interview article ............
