Yay! Great result!
But what on earth else did you find to talk about?!

Excellent, could be a very useful man to know! Akin to finding out that your girlfriend's dad owns a pub

He is indeed. Just make sure your sister realises this.

Cheers folks...as I said don’t really talk shop, he’s not a watch enthusiast, wasn’t wearing a watch but what was interesting is out of my small collection of Rolex, Omega’s and Tudor’s the one he would pick is my Bremont

Re: Result!!!
Wait, he’s a watch repairer, but not a watch enthusiast? Hard to imagine that’s a field one would get into without having an affinity for watches. It takes all kinds, I guess!

Perhaps his horological journey has taken him beyond the levels of us mere watchy mortals and he has transcended all need for material things. A kind of zen watch master!
