Hello everyone. My name is Peter Levy and I just joined your (our) horology club. I am a real newbie. I just started learning watch repair so I apologize in advance for the stupid technical questions I may be asking. I live in Las Vegas and am looking forward to the show. It will be my first watch show ever. If any members are in Las Vegas and are looking for some free labor in trade for some knowledge, please let me know.

Already you have the right ideas,by joining here and offering to serve there in trade for knowledge!! You're going to be a great new member is my prediction,and welcome to our friendly bunch

Let me 2nd what Tom said. I think you will like it here & as they say there are no stupid questions we have all been in your shoes. I think everyone of us here enjoys answering question, plus many of us learn from the questions asked.

Glad to have you here!

Tom
