Post by kiter65 »

Went for a meal with my sister last night and to meet her new ‘friend’.....he’s only a watch repairer :shock:. Played it cool didn’t want to talk shop with him on our first meeting but have been invited to his shop for a day to watch him carry out some work :thumbup:
All of a sudden I have a new favourite sister :lol:

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

Congratulations.
He is indeed. Just make sure your sister realises this. :thumbup:

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 :shock:

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! :lol:

I can only hope to get there someday. May the watch gods guide me!
