Very sad news. Always sad to learn that a member of our Community passes away. RIP, Captain.
My soulmate
Thank you all for your kind words. He was a fabulous man. He took much joy in this forum and felt connected to you all, he treasured your friendships.
Heartbroken 💔
That’s terrible news, I’m so sorry to hear it.
He was a wonderful contributor to the forum with his humour and knowledge.
My sincere condolences to his family and friends.

Greatly saddened by a true titan passing 🙏🏻
I am still struggling for words. We have had an agreement to meet in Barrafina when I was next in London but somehow that didn’t happen as my journey hasn’t taken me there in too long 🤷🏻♂️
He was kind, knowledgeable, compassionate and had a fabulous taste in watches and all things automotive. We will miss him but certainly nothing like his wife and family - wishing all the strength to them in these harrowing times!
Thank you Kimi
He was very much looking forward to meeting in Barrafina to discuss all the things you two had in common, he spoke of you fondly and often

Apparently the main chef opened another restaurant in the vicinity, so the place was to change.
I am so sorry for your loss and if there is anything we can do to help or support please do not hesitate!

Yes Nieves opened Sabor in Heddon St she invited us to the opening, happy memories,
Captain by his non de plume …
… but a General in my eyes. Always thoughtful, respectful and knowledgeable in his comments - a compliment from The Captain was a treasured gift.
Many condolences to you all those who shared his friendship over the years.

Captain - rest in peace 🙏
It’s always sad when a member of the community passes on. The captain was a cornerstone member always providing good insight and fun into the conversation. Never met him, but a virtual friend forever.
Such sad news.
I loved his posts, he was such a valuable member to our community here. This is heart wrenching. Prayers and thoughts to his family in this very, very sad time. He will always be remembered here.
We've lost one of the good ones.
Abel, thank you for letting us know. This is a loss that will be felt across the entire community.
Captain Scarlett was a pillar of this place. His posts had a warmth and wit that made you stop scrolling and actually read. He brought more than watches to the conversation. He brought life.
I never had the pleasure of meeting him in person, but I always felt like I knew him through his words and his photographs. That's a rare gift.
My deepest condolences to Mrs. Scarlett and the family. And to you, Abel, for losing a true friend.
Rest in peace, Captain. You will be missed.

I’m so sorry for your loss. Please know my thoughts are with you during this difficult time.
Dear Sarah, my apologies for calling yesterday, I was trying to send a text . . .
. . . but wound up dialing by mistake. It was a privilege to be Cap's friend; it's difficult to believe he's gone.
Please know he was admired and respected by our community of watch collectors. He was, to his core, one of us.
Sincerely,
Art
Thank you so much dear Bill for your thoughtful words.
It was very difficult for me to write my post. I feel so sad and shocked.
Thanks a lot to all friends who are joining here to salute our dear friend: The Captain!
