Great post Lani! We're all here for a reason, our passion for watches runs deeper than most. For most people, watches are just something to tell time, for others it's a part of their jobs (Pilots, divers, doctors, etc..) For the enthusiast, the intrigue might have ignited when you first saw James Bond use his watch as a laser, or Doc Brown timing the launch of the DeLorean Okay, so those were two instances where my eyes popped out of my head and my jaw dropped
That's where it started for me and the web has allowed us to connect and be a community, which has turned my passion of watches into a full blown hobby...the support, knowledge and guidance of forum members helps me grow and learn everytime I log on. If the net didn't exist, where would we be?...I know I wouldn't be purchasing reps let alone modding them, I would have just bought a Gen and that would have been the end of that story!
I'm a car nut, so when I modded my car, it gave me more memories and friends than if I were to just go buy something off the lot and leave it as is. Reps have allowed me to meet people that I otherwise wouldn't have! So, it's more than the watch itself, it's the human side to us all that keeps me coming back for more. Don't get me wrong, I'm a complete watch addict and Reps provide a journey and experience that I wouldn't have by just saving up to buy a Gen! So thanks for the support, I wouldn't be here otherwise
Cheers
