    Unfortunately Archie actually lives in Brisbane so I have to share a city with him, but hearing him pontificate is always good for a laugh

    Can't tell if it's an act or not. Sounds like the guy has issues, regardless. Judging people by their watch? There's plenty of very successful/wealthy people wearing Seikos too. :)

    Sounds fitting lol

    And no its not an act, that's him, seriously. That's why he's been banned from even more watch forums than Dennis

    This dude is a mercenary. He makes some points, I guess, but wow. That whole "just a generic Swiss watch" ploy when referring to his Patek is an example of some obscenely grandiose thinking.

    Such is his opinion of owners of the two great watches because I think, he has not got the opportunity to meet and talk to the many owners of Omega and Rolex, who are humble, unassuming and respectable. Sometimes, it is good to have a person like him in this beautiful world of watches.

    Thank-you.

    ...it is a watch bought by someone interested in science, probably a science teacher who had to save up to get it. That science teacher you had in school who is probably a genius and maybe the most intelligent person you ever met, but who decided to teach instead of making a lot of money, etc, etc, ... ::facepalm1::

    Maybe we should send him Patrick's details so they can talk it out :whipped:

    ...by the way, where is Patrick ? I sort of miss him :)

    You know, we don't get to hear a lot of Australian accents on the East Coast of the US. It's a long way away.

    Since I can't see Archie's face during the video, the only image that comes to mind is this one:

    Some of us really need to get out more often. :)

    We tried a spell then went to a ban. If he could apologise to a few people and keep to the rules he could come back, I'm just not sure he wants to.

    I can't believe anyone could be offended by Patrick, I found him very entertaining. Some people just need to relax and don't take him to serious !. :)

    Without getting too deep into it, there were some things going on off-forum that were not good.
