Reason #13

You'll never run out of watches to buy (or want to put on your list)

^^

Right about that!

Downside is too many to choose from so it makes it hard, lol

Friendship!

Your first image, Ping, reminded me of the fun we had a GTG last year. For those who don't remember, click here to be magically transported back to the original post . It happened to coincide with the International ChainScan on the WristScan Forum and we joined in by placing the watches around the iPad and then uploading it to the thread.

This really is the best watch community in the world.

There's no place like PuristS!




Yes, that is where I snagged the pic :)

I thought it illustrated my point well. Watches may come and go at times but friends can remain forever. 

Great post

Great post, and so true


It's like being together with close friends if you post frequent and share your thoughts.
Everybody is so open minded and helpful (almost). A big difference to many other forums I found.
The members are very diverse and have many interesting point of views.

Thank you PuriStPro for being there for me
Hans

Thank you

I think you got it exactly right about our community. It is the "PuristS" mindset. Thank you for your comments 

Ten great reasons, Ping!

And I have always meant that.  This place is deep in my heart, and always will be.


It is unique and special indeed. Thanks Michael! [nt]

Hello to all,
I have been thinking about joining for a while and this post finally convinced me: the part about visiting every watch store I can find, trying to understand which watch the guy next to me is wearing or spotting all the watches I see in a movie is definitely me! smile
I'm very excited about joining this community and I'm looking forward to finally be a more active participant.

So, thank you, Ping! smile

Welcome, Alberto, and brilliant post, Ping!

 
 By: ThomasM : March 12th, 2014-21:21
Missed this when it was first posted - have been at 30k feet most of this time - but glad I caught it now. Thanks, Ping!

And Alberto, looking forward to reading more from you.

TM

Thank you!

It often just takes a little 'push' to ...

 
 By: AndrewD : March 19th, 2014-23:58
... start posting. People love to hear about which watches have caught your eye, what is on your wrist, or just an encouraging response to others who make the effort to post. It is all about the community and our love of all things horological.

Don't forget to use the search function to look back through topics that interest you. There are literally hundreds of thousands of posts and images and 15 years of 'collective wisdom' stored here. A true treasure trove. 

A warm welcome from me, Alberto.

I just needed a little push! smile

Thank you for the welcome, Andrew!
