Thank you sir.

It was almost a 'please read and follow the rules' post, which I guess would have been appropriate, but that one ended up as 19,999.

:shock: Someone has waaaaaaay too much time on their hands me thinks! :poke:

Seriously though, nice going Mr Roff. I still dunno how you've done it, considering you've been a member for 3 days less than me (and I sometimes feel I spend too much time here!) and yet you've amassed 20,000 posts while I'm barely into the 9,000's! Obviously it'd be a pretty worthless milestone if the content wasn't there, but (generally at least :wink: ) your posts are always a valuable contribution to the forum, so 20K up is indeed a fine achievement. :thumbsup:

Simple:

8,000 'Use the search function' (must be at least that :roll: )
5,000 'It's fake', 'It's franken', 'Reported', etc
3,000 'Please read and follow the rules'
3,000 '.jpg files up to 250k.......'
900 'Welcome to BreitlingSource'
90 'What Driver8 meant to say was'
10 posts that might have been vaguely useful somewhere

Hi all,

Just bought my first Breitling - a black faced Cockpit with SS bracelet. Now face a week of waiting for the retailer to get it (they only had the blue face in stock).

Hi all,

The ling bug has hit hard - now that I have one I need more :lol:

What do you think of this - with my limited knowledge of what to look for I'm kind of stuck on whether this is real or not. http://cgi.ebay.com/BREITLING-MONTBRILL ... dZViewItem

Thanks,

Andy

My pet theory is the guy doesn't need sleep. 4 hr commutes, work, moderate, work the farm, watchmaking, family, dogs, collect art, polish & wind thousands of watches, eat, shower, did I miss anything? :poke:

Shower? You think I have time to shower?

Oh and the commute is about 2 3/4 hours - each way.

I've only been here for a very short time, but I can see your contribution is very valuable Roff. Keep up the good work.
