Nice post Ninja. Always enjoy your funny tongue-in-cheek and funny writing style. This hobby is always meant for sharing, otherwise it is a lot less enjoyable. Although it also has it's fair share of frustration at times.

I put this thread in the Patek section because I spend so much time here (but really applies to the broader TRF family) and have gotten to know some of you and over time hopefully, I’ll get a chance to meet each one of you in person.

So thank you all... actually being sincere lol
Great post. I know many of us (including myself) feel the same way. I've always loved watches and this forum takes the love to a different level. I look forward to coming home many nights to read these posts (I usually read TRF before I go to sleep).

And, it goes without saying, there are so many classy people on here. We all poke fun, but very very rarely do members get out of line. It's great to see so many people discussing their love for watches in such a respectful way. I must say the moderators do a phenomenal job of keeping us all in line and ensuring the civilized exchange of ideas. Cheers to the moderators for all that they do and to Ninja for a wonderful post.

Right on Jonathon! Your Fat Ninja moniker is hilarious and you have more than I can think of humour that made me laugh.

It's a pleasure to know you.

I think we need a special tattoo, special handshake and perhaps our own song to make this WIS bond more permanent.

Thanks, Ninja. I feel the same way. I’m not really a “forums” guy but this community is a blast. Many well wishes to you, bro. Look forward to “seeing” you around here; your posts are always a highlight.
