Dear Abel
What a lovely and detailed evaluation of your thinking on watches and life. Let me go one step further.....there is no need to wait for an epitaph as that is something we never see...so see here now...."Here IS a good guy" You are an inspiration to so man...

Another very nice read
& very nice person to \'meet\' more elaborate. Great series D.
Abel is a true gentleman and connoisseur of all good things in life.
The only thing I can add and witness is that Abel is even better in the real life than through these lines... Thanks for having taken the time, Damjan and Abel, to write this thread. Nicolas
Dear Nicolas: thank you for your so kind words...
... It was a great pleasure to answer this interview. Nicolas: you know how much I appreciate the friendship you have generously offered me. I feel honored having met you personally in several occasions when visiting my beloved City of Paris and be sure t...
A really nice read
and although you don't like big watches, I see you have a soft spot for Panerai, like many of us. ;-) Aris
Thank you so much Aris! Glad you enjoyed the reading!! Yes, Panerai is...
... the exception that confirms my personal rule regarding case size. Lol!! It is just a case of Love and Passion for a particular brand like Panerai! Not easy to explain -even to myself! - I enjoy so much everything around Panerai: reading its history, e...
I really appreciated to read you my dear Abel.
I love your sentence saying that a watch must "talk" to you. I\'m fully agree with you on that specific point. For me, a watch must help your heart beating faster when you see it and you\'ll know if it is made for you. I discovered several additional thin...
Thanks a lot my dear friend Alkiro for your kind words! Nicest aspect of...
... this series of interviews is to discover our colleagues through their professions and their personal approach to collecting. I´m very excited to be invited by Damjan to share my part and to read every month about one of our friends here. Glad to know ...

This is really an excellent interview
I often feel we see just a small slice of each person when we know them through job, or church, or school or web. Even here, where we are able to share cars, food, wine, cameras, WATCHES we rarely get the whole picture. These interviews greatly extend our...
Dear Cazalea: Thank you for your kind comments! I completely agree with your words, and it is to...
... applaud Damjan for his idea of introduceing our members through his monthly interviews. I have been reading the previous with delight and eagerly look forward for the next to come! Receive my best cordial regards, Abel.

Nice to meet you, Abel!
Your humility comes through, just as when you "blush" from compliments about your wonderful photography. You are exactly the man you wish to be remembered as, and I hope someday we meet.
