I’m at 5 in two months. My wife just rolls her eyes...Welcome. The community here is great. I didn't even introduce myself properly at the outset and I felt welcome here right away. A word of warning though, I've bought eleven leather jackets since april, so it can be dangerous.

Welcome aboard and enjoy the camaraderie and the huge wealth of knowledge shared here. Great bunch of guys you'd be proud to have in any club, it's just as well we come form all corners of the globe because if we could all get together on a regular basis we'd all be in lots of (very fun) trouble! And broke, but only in the monetary sense. There are riches found in our shared enthusiasm and fellowship that far eclipse mere financial matters.
So well said- appreciate the warm welcome!

Love your attitude. You're wise in that you waited to gain some knowledge (not that you didn't already possess it) before posting. Myself, I think I joined in 2012. I was clueless and unfortunately had to learn as I went along...but welcome!
not to pat anyone too heavily on the back here, but this forum is filled with a plethora of seriously fine folks. All kinds of goodness that sometimes is only witnessed in PMs and such. But you'll soon see!

It’s definitely this great group that brought me into this forum specifically and ignited the newfound interest. Very happy to have found you all.
With so much negativity prevalent in various social media platforms it’s nice to have a place to go where positivity seems to be the norm.
Superfluous

From one SoCal watch collector to another: Welcome.

Welcome to the lounge. It truly is a special place, and has no equivalent. Like yourself, and probably many others, i have collected other stuff before. In my case, as a dilettante photographer, I was afflicted with GAS (Gear acquisition Syndrome) before calming down. I replaced one addiction with another, but I felt good about it because leather jackets are comparatively way less expensive than cameras and lenses (especially with brands such as Leica). Anyway, not only did the FL provide me with invaluable information, but I found there a community that tacitly rules out all kind of hostility, and it is such a break from other forums. Lastly, I can't help adding my voice to the warnings: since I started following the forum, I bought so many jackets I'm afraid to count them. Every one is supposed to be the last.

The ride is everything and much more than the sum of he acquisitions!
We all need our hobbies to keep life sane but it’s the connections that make certain ones special.
