HOLY S**T!!

Has anyone ever made a TRF entrance quite like this before? It's like the door was slammed off the hinges with a battering ram and a tornado blew in.

Insanely awesome stuff

Look forward to hearing the stories behind how a collection like that is acquired.

Not to mention, blowing the Basel Show into the backseat

Mike -- I LOVE the group shots but, if not asking too much, wonder whether you might have a favorite among them (if it won't hurt the others' feelings to tell us!), and whether you might have a closeup of that one to show us?

When are you starting your next thread here?? I can hardly wait!

I am amazed at your restraint.

I was thinking that myself...

Steve, I'm thinking the guys here are conspiring to keep this thread alive to page 1,555 so I have to go and blow my brains out buying Patek grand-complications.... tell me it ain't so!!

spuds · 8 April 2011, 06:58 AM

I've never been a great one for sucking up but I'll admit that at a 'mini GTG' some months ago I was educated as to 'The Legend that is Mike Wood'!!!

Welcome aboard mate....

Explorer 2011 · 10 April 2011, 07:04 AM

Welcome Mike...a great collection right on my doorstep !

BMAN8 · 22 April 2011, 06:22 AM

Hey Mike,

Thanks for sharing your immeasurable collection with us. I can hardly believe that one man has the stamina (and $$$!) to do this much focused collecting.

Cheers.

Sweramic · 22 April 2011, 06:25 AM

This thread is awesome

Mike Wood · 22 April 2011, 08:06 AM

This thread's still dragging its sorry ass up the Forum!

Still, I think it'll be about 187 years until we reach p.1,555 and I have to come good with some Patek "biggies"....

In awe of the great welcome, and feeling a bit of a fraud as the "legendary" Mike Wood....

HL65 · 22 April 2011, 08:47 AM

I think as we keep going forward you can indulge us with a few surprises here and there!!
