    I don't think you are more than 2 25"s. In any case, Happy Birthday and congratulations on the Portugieser. Wear it in good health my friend. Keep up the good humor you share with so many of us.

    Dear Tonny,

    You are a very fortunate to have such a thoughtful and considerate wife. Do you mind if I have her call my wife as my birthday is coming up? :-). Seriously, congrats on a great gift to mark a special occasion.

    If you are free tnis Sunday, I would love to treat you to a celebratory beer or two. I will be in Brussels--picking up a watch of course. :-)

    Regards, George

    Tonny, one of the best way to celebrate - congrats on both your round anniversary and your nice purchase, wear in good health "bis 120"! :)
    It seems a nice habit to buy an IWC to the 50th, I did the very same, almost 5 years back: it was the Aquatimer Cousteau Chrono ref. 376706 :) on the scan with some personalizations.
    I hope I can buy a 40-42 mm Aquatimer Chrono for my 60th, already with the new caliber 69320... :)
    Best,
    Robert

    Hi Tonny,

    Congratulations! I think the first time we met must be more than 15 years ago.. and I happy to see you haven't changed over the years and are promoted as moderator!

    Wear the Portuguese in health I think one of the best watches by IWC since the ref 5441

    Greetings, Martijn

    Congrats Tonny! And you're 25 years younger than your Port celebrates!

    Anyway, all us old farts know that 50 is really the new 30! Although sometimes it feels exactly like 50!

    All my best,
    Larry
