I know my photographic skills can't compare to his - and I also only use the mobile phone, BUT he was the one who got me into SEIKO.

I sincerely don't know if he's around here, anyhow:
Thank you Stefan, you are a great inspiration!

Glory ... And the crazy gang in Paris who caused the closure of the Eiffel !!! LOL What about to a watch that reminds you of a fellow Purists :) ...  

This is a watch which reminds me of a Purists member and good friend!

A great reason...

 
 By: blomman Mr Blue : June 27th, 2013-12:35
To get a watch! :) I think no one here hasn't been influenced by some of the other members here... HAGWE Blomman

For sure ...

 
 By: nilomis : June 27th, 2013-12:45
This is a place where influence is the name of the game. I'm only impervious to infuence when a higher law triggers, like watches without running seconds or watches that don't looks like a watch. Cheers, Nilo

Great Causes!

 
 By: flamenco : June 27th, 2013-16:30
Looks like u have the entire compliment! Great shots Nilo, as always.

Not all ...

There's something special . . .
