Yes, Dan, i think that’s the best way to look at it. Everybody here seems to be having a good time except for you. If this whole thing turns out to be a huge lie, you can basque in the glory and tell us all “I told you so.” Otherwise Maybe just take a break from this thread for a week or two, and see how you feel. The rest of us are just trying to enjoy watches and interesting stories that go along with them.

What part of this is a lie? That there is no watch? Some of you guys have lost me?

Thanks for the supportive pm's guys.

Honestly, I can understand why the thread has taken this turn. I have been fed so many false updates from my watch maker...

If I dont get a photo today its going to really kick off.

After putting this much attention, time, thought, and emotion into this crazy-ass thread, can we please get some explanation? I think we deserve as much.

Lol, apparently one of the Mod’s knows something we don’t. Been trying to keep a positive outlook but been skeptical since about 700 posts ago.

Is someone allowed to post on behalf of @nareembeen?

I mean, a fellow OZ or something, without being himself banned?

We all deserve to see the end of this and a couple of pictures!

Well that's a shame.

I have spoken to Glenn on the phone and I've spoken several times to a watchmaker that I have a long relationship with in the same city as Glenn's watchmaker. My watchmaker has confirmed the behaviour of Glenn's watchmaker and that the local community (as well as the national industry association) have attempted to intervene to get him to resolve a number of issues before his reputation is damaged beyond repair.
The difficulties Glenn has experienced with the watchmaker in are not unique - there are others experiencing the exact same delaying, deceptive, and evasive behaviour.
Glenn has attempted to give him the benefit of the doubt and hasn't named and shamed him. I think I would have done so long ago, but Glenn has shown remarkable patience.
Obviously, I can't speak to why he has been banned, but I suspect it's a result of his responding in kind to some of those who have question his integrity on this thread.

Should Glenn want someone to update the thread with the final outcome then I'm sure one of us Aussies can do it (assuming the thread isn't locked in the meantime).
