    David,

    What was it like not having to "wait" long for that beauty? A huge congrats for pursuing your dream. It's the perfect fit for your wrist. You model it well !

    Enjoy it in good health but don't ignore your VC-AT. They get lonely if not held every few days.

    Excellent pick-up my friend. Did the seller include some swag ?

    Hi Fabio,

    I just used Google Translate, sorry I don't speak Portuguese nor Spanish. I do know however that Portuguese is the official language of Brasil!

    I would love to learn another language but I don't have enough time for that.

    Kind regards,

    Clemens

    Hi Jeronimo,

    I just saw your question after replying to Fabio! At the moment I have to do with just Dutch, English, French and German, although my written German is horrible :-)

    Kind regards,

    Clemens

    Obrigado rapazes. Eu aprecio os pensamentos amáveis. Quem sabia que a obtenção de um relógio novo me faria fluente em um novo idioma? Talvez comprar um relógio da França iria melhorar o meu francês.

    Thanks Nad, I'm really looking forward to it.

    My impatient personality was very happy not to have to wait for the watch. :) It appears that I'll have to wait a while for the new strap but I can live with that.

    You are all being very kind considering that I ignored your collective advice. Sincerely, thank you for the support.

    Yep, Clemens...

    Totally understood ! But trust me as a personal experience, 8 out of 10 people, not being "south american" believe we do... (since we are surrounded by only hispanic/spanish speaking countries and they know we don't speak spanish nor come from hispanics as majority, as the whole world also think hehe). And plus, spanish is not so easily understood by us as people here claim it to be... last July I went to Buenos Aires and could BARELY understand them ! Ended up only using English (Whenever was possible).

    I also pretty much enjoy learning other languages. Right now I'm studying norwegian because of my wife (she is norwegian) and also because I like it very much.

    Hi Clemens,

    You speak quite a lot of languages already. I speak a few myself, but probably your portuguese is better than my dutch! I'm starting on mandarin now, but used to our romanic or germanic languages it's bit hard to relate...!

    Cheers!

    LOL! You too, David...?! Almost perfect portuguese, I'm very proud of you, my countrymen!

    Congrats again on your watch, I wish you lots of happy moments with it!

    @MF

    Michael, beware, if it goes on like this, one of these days everyone is writing in portuguese in our Forum!!! LOL!
