    As the third part of this series, I'm pleased to present an interview with a U.S. collector, Terry Russell. Many of you already know Terry and his great sense of humor, I hope you learn more here about a really great guy. Also, Terry's written numerous articles over the years, and starting on the second page of the interview they are linked when you see a different color text.

    Enjoy! You can access the interview by clicking here.

    P.S.If you missed the prior interviews with Jarrod Gill and Thang Vo-Ta, you can find them under "Moderator Articles" in the forum.

    Well done Michael and congrats to Terry for making the hit list of interviews. Thanks to you, Terry, for making us all laugh. We all know it gets even more funny (worse) when you team up with Nelson.

    Happy Thanksgiving to all the Americans reading this post.

    I would add that this interview is perfect, posted on Turkey day here in the USA! But really, great interview of one of my closest friends!

    I really enjoyed this interview. T is a hoot - many thanks for the links to his articles. The 5251 piece was something that pre-dated my intro to IWC, and never really got involved in "Timezone" - so I appreciated reading that article too.

    Great job, Mike and Terry. Even a "plain old" interview allows Terry to reveal that terrific sense of humor. Anyone who thinks that life's three staples are caffeine, nicotine, and Dentyne can't be all bad! :-)

    Reading one of Terry's articles was one of the first things I remember after getting interested in watches. Meeting him in person will likely be one of the pleasures I will always remember.

    Thanks for a fun read!

    Those who know Terry will realise that nobody captured him better than Michael in this interview. And I also guess that nobody but Tery can express his passion for IWC in such unique manner as he does. It is almost Christmas and I sincerely hope that he will produce another " T "story for us this year.
    Thanks Michael and Tery.
    Adrian,

    Thanks, Adrian and everyone --but the credit really goes 100% to Terry. All I did was ask a few questions, and the simple fact is that Terry is s truly passionate guy....about watches, his family and life.
