Thanks for your words.
I'll try to post some interesting and useful info I've been stocking. I have lots of pics from my visits to TAG, Vacheron, AP, and other watch related places. I would like to post some in-depth reviews of some of my "unsual" watches, hope to find the time to do so.
I love this place, as I guess you all do. It's been a source to share and learn about one of my passions, and also a place to meet very interesting and wise people from around the world. Thank you all.
Best wishes for 2013.

New Year’s Resolutions
Dear All, The New Year provides an opportunity to reflect on where we have come from and to look to the future with renewed enthusiasm. Many of us have been involved with PuristS for years and it has become an important part of our daily lives. Through Pu...
Finally I would like to thank ...
... my fellow Moderator team, Thomas and the PPro Executive for maintaining PuristS ideals and integrity and for keeping PPro as the valuable resource it is renowned to be. The high standards here are virtually unknown across the internet and that doesn’t...
thats my resolution....
I will try to contribute more and more,I have a brand new set up and intend to use it. After all its due to the Purists if my interest turned into passion. This is not an average place,this is a magic one where REAL people with REAL passion meet up,most o...
Same sentiments here, Andrew . . .

Divorced, no. But your wife should be even more comprehensive...

We shall write these resolutions on top of the main entrance of our temple!
I can't agree more! Thanks Andrew and thanks for your energy to make HOME forum the main point of gathering of all of us. Fx
LOL
You have my vote for the temple project. A place for retirement and relaxation. What may happen inside, stays inside. Cheers Vte :)
Thanks for e encouragement and reminder
I will have this in my resolution. This place has been very helpful to me in growing my knowledge and insight into the world of horology and I do appreciate all the effort that you and the rest of the contributors have put in to make this such an interest...

great sentiments
dear Andrew, that I will be happy to follow if time allows. As for the wealth of archival knowledge on Purists, there are certain topics that I would love to explore! Thanks for all your (and your co-moderators) work on what is the nicest place on the net...
As 2012 draws to a close, it provides the opportunity to reflectand ponder
what to do for the next 365 days. This might sound contrary but I would perhaps like to spend more time with family esp my wife and 2 young ones in the upcoming year. Also not to spend on impulse on any horological pieces in 2013 and meet more Purists in ...
Mmm I will try Andrew, but...
...it is hard sometimes from China since we do not have Youtube, Facebook, etc, etc... :( I promiss however to try and share some of my other passions (those that my wife is aware of, at least ;)) All the Best for 2013
I'm On Board...
... With your PuristS ResolutionS... Thanks for the great words of encouragement. I am happy to be a contributing member of this amazing community. Andrew, you are the man. Wishing everyone a safe, healthy and happy New Year. Let's all meet in Basel for t...
You will be at Basel, this year? Now, it is another good reason to go there!
That would be a first, for me. All the best, Scott! Niicolas.
Let's make it happen!
My girlfriend and I will be traveling - starting from Rome on April 23rd and then making our way North through Italy - and then ending up in Switzerland for the last two days of the show. Hooking up with you would be one of the trip's highlights. It would...
LOOOOL! That would be with great pleasure. BUT...
Are you sure that Basel fair is at that time? I would rather say end of March.... BUT... I may also go to Swizerland at the end of April. La Chaux De Fonds... Let me know! Best, Nicolas
The Show Dates Are...
... April 25th through May 2nd. Our travel itinerary has us getting into Zurich on April 30th, and then taking a train into Basel on May 1st for the last two days of the show. I actually have business to do at the show - which is great since this will be ...
Love your style!
Do never listen to your accountant lawyer or lawyer accountant. They have no imagination, they don't know pleasure, so they can't understand it. Even my banker is a joker, comapred to them! :) Thanks for the dates, i will see how I can do it! Nicolas
Great New Year's Resolution Andrew.
I am in. So much to learn and so many incredible watches to explore. 2013 will be a great PPro year. Many thanks to all the PPro moderators. JerryW
Beautifully said, Andrew!
My thanks to everyone who contributes toward making this site the wonderful place that it is today. Each of you brings something unique and amazing to our shared corner of the Internet! Happy New Year, all! Cheers, Daos
well said Andrew.
my only resolution for the year will be to try to take more imaginative pictures rather that sitting on my fat arse watching tv. i know it means leaving the house, but i will try......i promise. i wish a great 2013 to everyone. G.
Well said Andrew. I will try ...
To do two things: 1) Now that I have a stable watch set, I will try to do mid/long term review and impressions. 2) Improve my pictures. I need to obtain more quality and less boring scenes. Cheers and a wonderful 2013 to all, Nilo
Please do not improve your pictures or we will have to give up WristScan competitions!
Your photos are phenomenal! In 2013 I resolve to learn the difference between these technical terms... F-stop Full stop California stop And Don't stop Cazalea
I need to put more life on my pics ...
I'm very lazy and I shoot my pics on a balcony that is located few steps from my home office. I need to try different places. Cheers, Nilo
I do much the same
as 90% of my watch photos are on the kitchen counter. Rarely, I get some food out and put the watch into the food. But sometimes I go into the back garden and put the watch into the wilderness. It does stress the photographer when moving all things around...
Nicely put!
Andrew, I have to admit that I could do more. I was a little bit busy sometimes and got too lazy to contribute to this wonderful community. I will try to be more helpful, acquire more knowledge about watches and do some more this year. May the 2013 be bet...
I am old but my pain is new
Andrew, Thank you for the encouragement. I am feeling down in the dumps but your post may have registered a flicker of hope on my PuristS' ECG (thats EKG for the Americans). Maybe it was the transition from 2012 into 2013 without Mayan Catastrophe? Maybe ...
yes you should mr MTF...

Do we have one lazy butt calling the other kettle black?
Or whatever the mixed metaphor is! Cheers to you both. As I have noted, it is possible to count ones blessings whilst reclining on the couch. Cazalea
About to have a nap myself
After too much lunch (Reuben sandwich & fries). Yawn. BTW - thank goodness I have a Power Reserve or my watch would have stopped. I forgot this one is a hand wind ... Does anyone else have this problem? ...
That's a relaxing view, Mike ...
I see you have the 'making life more livable' thing all worked out. Enjoy. Andrew
Pp could be recalled PuristBro
Amen Andrew, thanks for summing this up so sharply. Happy to have discovered this place maybe 2 years (only) ago. Have a great new year. Cheers, Mark
Fits like a glove ...
You were already a purist, Mark, you just took a while to find PuristS. I remember the first time I stumbled onto PuristS following a Google search for information on JLC Reversos. It was like finding a long lost home. The fit with me was perfect. Still h...
Making Life More Livable...
I like that phrase, "making life more livable." Be it furniture, art, watches, cars, travel, food, wine, photography, fashion, etc... We should start a series on that! How to make life more livable...
