    So I'm here under a new name

    Hi everyone. Thought it was time for a new name for the new forum. The samanator handle has had a good run, but the lifelong dog guy is now the Black Cat. So glad to see the doors open here after all the flurry of activities in the past weeks. I'm married to the lovely Lisa and we live with 13 Pomeranians since Lisa is a Pom breeder and trainer. Here is our latest addition:


    I'm think it's time for a Ball here on IWL. Went with one of Rays favorites the Trainmaster Power Reserve. Fitting since it is an enameled dial with the traditional RR look. I always loved the Ball & Co. built into the "7" on the traditional RR watches in the collection:

    Absolutely love that Trainmaster PR. Great dial, great size, great lume. Saw that one in person shortly after you got it.

    Power reserve might not be the most useful of complications on an auto but I sure love seeing that hand on a dial!

    Well that was actually a few days after we started this venture. This is 4 weeks later (this morning).

    Pomeranian(same puppy in the top post). Chase here is a tri color. Poms come in thousands of colors, and I think my wife is trying to have one of each.

    She could probably say the same about you and watches!

    Dratts, my plan is out! I'll note she does have more watches than I do. Also part of the plan.
