I respect this choice, for as long as YOU are fine with that.
As far as I'm concerned, if a post is made in jest, I am not offended in the least. In fact, I often enjoy it (as I did with your recent posts). The fact that other members have shown to be very sensitive to the content of the other thread, for as long as they did it respectfully, that should also be accepted. (That thread was eventually locked by a fellow moderator because it was obviously becoming contentious, so I support his decision.) Other people, as you can see, are enjoying your memes, and that's fine too.
One of the things I love about WPS is the pleasant, genuine, and non-PC nature of many posts -- precisely the opposite of a rigid or unhealthy system. So please continue to feel free to express yourself freely and respectfully, and you can be sure that most people here will appreciate ;-) Thanks again for your contributions.
Well if you are talking about non official Rolex modified watch, then the guys is correct cause I recalled reading a PC Rolex from Dr Frank M...
Then I guess the joke is not on that guy...
Sir, i have decided not to post any new threads as i may tread upon some sensitive steps. Regards
A liberal society provides a long rope to all discussions and encourage humour at its cost! A rigid and conservative system is neither conducive nor healthy to any creative idea or intercourse. Just my 2 cents.... Regards

Fab, I think a golden rule is always ask yourself whether you’d say it in person
For example, I own two Hublots. Would you walk up to me at a cocktail party, look me in the eye, and say “Hey Nick, I think your Hublots are over-priced high-end Invictas”. Those were exact comments Pun made. If you would, then it’s game on, go for it. Bu...
Dear Sir, I'm sorry if you took otherwise but I beg to differ.
I don't say many things that I can say while writing in a time-out column. There is a difference in the location sir and we all must appreciate that. Regards
Then you must accept that some people think as you do, and some people think as I do
So when you write something that you would not say in person, you must accept that some people will view your written words in the same context as if you’d said that to their face. While you may not agree with that, it is most salient to be aware of it. ...
Yes I accept that some people may think as you do.
And they might take offense at that. I still believe that one must take the position from which the dialogue is initiated in order to understand the spirit behind that, only then it would be taken in proper context. If it's at a place where lighthearted t...
Nick, nobody should treat you (or anyone else) disrespectfully here, or any different than they do in person. We are all in complete agreement with that.
However, I have no problem with a meme or post that is obviously made in jest -- be the subject Hublot, Rolex, or Patek -- and I view these as very different things. Some members have enjoyed these memes Pun posted, while it was clear that you and a few o...
Dear Sir, locking that thread wasn't an extreme step taken too soon? The "contentious" word should be interpreted with a good elasticity on internet..
I like to play little mischievous as that provoke otherwise dormant emotions in others, and that's good for us. Releasing catharsis in healthy way is a major benefit of our forums or blogs. Normally if there is any issue, a moderator must inform the parti...
Pun, I have (mostly) taken your side in this story as far as your memes go, even if I wasn't necessarily involved in the conversation.
However, I'm not going to litigate here what any another mod has decided to do. Also understand that there can be details or developments that you don't necessarily see in public, and for which a quick action might need to be taken. This moderator's call ...
Whats going on?
I see some childish treads. I know Pun for awhile, and i think he do not want to hurt us or any watches. It is good to tell him the rules. Everybody make some mistakes at some times. I hope we can go on at normal behavior. Enjoy WPS the way we know. Regar...
My wife’s Datejust is a perpetual calendar!
Because I’m the perpetual calendar fairy who changes the date for her at 11 pm on the last day of February, April, June, September and November. The watch also magically adjusts to daylight savings time in March and November.
Yours is an unique piece dear...
Keep it in safe. It's meant to go at Phillips de Pury to go under the hammer to beat Daytona record. 😊😂
