What an absolute pleasure it has been to be a part of this (now) legendary thread. The time, effort and energy you've put into this Karl on a daily basis has been incredible and much much appreciated. It has helped me immensely in building a great knowledge bank and enjoying this wonderful hobby.

Happy First Year Anniversary

Chapeau

Everyone else are mad at me for replacing the jubilee with the nato

You know I was quite proud of my 16600 and I joined this forum and quite soon I came across this thread and thought WOW, some of the nicest watches around were there to see.

This thread got me looking for a 5513 and in doing so I came across a lovely 1680 white which I was fortunate to purchase and i just love it. However, i continue to look at this thread daily and dream!! Thanks Karl.

My gratitude to you also, Mr 'Pict'! Glad the thread, with all it's wonderful contributions/contributors, got you hooked. That's a very nice 1680 you acquired; wear in the best of health. BTW - a 16600 is a mighty classic, well worthy of pride.
