New, not new

I will start by saying I joined this forum a long time ago, just so I could open photo links. I was back then, as now, in awe of the collective knowledge base here at the forum. I finally pulled the trigger on the watch I've always wanted from one of the trusted sellers here (thanks GrailTime) and I couldn't be happier. I'm not really sure I belong here, I'm not a jewelry person, but I
admire the mechanical precision and complexity of the watch. There are a lot of collectors here, a lot of big money boys and I certainly do not play in that sandbox.
Now that I own the watch I may have a few questions, and or offbeat commentary, but I will mostly sit quietly and let the grown-ups talk.
Thanks to all involved in making the forum a fantastic resource.
John
