    Hello fellow watch lovers. I would like to introduce myself; my name is Hipolito. I'm fairly new on this platform as well as the timepiece industry overall. I created an account with this forum in order to connect w/ other watch enthusiasts like yourself & to learn as well. Please feel free to connect with me, at some point of my journey I will have an inventory for you guys.

    -Thank You

    An inventory of what though? That’s kind of an unusual first post mate

    If his new to watches I think he’s a bit low on inventory to show us....
    (Also think he may be using a translation)

    @AgentHipolito where are you in this big world ?

    Maybe ‘inventory’ actually means ‘collection’ and has been lost in translation, it makes a bit more sense contextually.
    Plus I like the cut of his jib, how many of you layabouts wear a tie? :D

    Agreed, but when you read the WUS thread that Archer linked, it seems like the translation/interpretation here is accurate.

    On the WUS thread linked above, it’s a *bit* clearer he’s aspiring to have a watch sales business. Perhaps even a luxury watch sales business.

    In this pandemic? Business attire now means “has on pants”

    Going by the number of Zoom etc meetings I've seen, I think it now means "Has nice hairdo and a clean shirt".

    We never see the pants region, and for that I'm very grateful.

    PS: I've NEVER done a Zoom/Facetime etc in my undies.
    In my trackie dacks, yes.
    A la "commando", no.

    Much as a tie used to, pants now are also useless except to signal respect for social norms, boost confidence, be the most uncomfortable thing about the outfit, and the first thing to come off when the “day” is done.

    Damn. I seriously thought it was a bot generated post but reading the WUS thread, I now understand there is a real person behind. Now I feel guilty for making fun and not making him feel more welcome ::shy::

    To OP:
    Welcome Sir, I can’t wait to see your inventory.




    Hopefully that didn’t sound wrong :eek:
