Hmm. I did reply but it looks like the internet has eaten it. I'm honoured to have been nominated. It means a lot. I've not seen jrod in a while though. I hope he's ok.

Wow... It is an honor I was even considered. Don't know that I've contributed all that much beyond some lewd pictures. I've learned considerably more about watches than I have imbued on others here. Honestly, I've kind of veered from that knowledge as of late. I am very grateful... and I vote for Bonesey.

He was my first tussle with a member here. It is one of the few times I've found mutual respect in an intellectual argument on the internet. In the course of that rather vigorous debate he opened my eyes to what a high end, over-engineered "tool" watch can do.

Yes "mate", you should wear that motherf*cker like a pimp and drop it in the Mariana Trench when you're done... ;)

When you combine that with his wealth of knowledge (Rolex in particular), his learning curve with horology, modifications and his photography skills, he handily wins my vote.
