    Default Greetings from Long Island

    Thanks for the welcome!

    My journey with replica watches started 4 years ago when I was diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease. My neurologist, a watch collector, recommended a hand therapy to deal with the tremors---assemble and disassemble watch movements! You know, those tiny screws, and other parts that often don't do what you want them to. I have to say in the beginning it was like picking up a penny while wearing boxing gloves but I 've gotten pretty good at it.

    Once again, thanks for the Welcome Aboard

    Good morning...long time member and I have been away from the hobby for several - many, years. Today I logged into RG to see what the community was doing and yours is the first post I thought I would comment on. Welcome to the club...

    Great hobby...watches, whatever your reason, can aways be a good form of therapy. Mine was $Retail Therapy.
