| Horology is the study of timepieces such as clocks and watches , etc. Therefore horological is to clocks, what paleantological is to dinosaur bones. ___________________ lexus car partstruck driving training |

Therefore horilogical would mean anthing related to the study of time.  In XMT terms...it means that you dig watches and like to discuss things related to watches of any brand or price range. Plus just about any topic or anything else that pops into your mind for that matter...

It's funny because alot of times I think of horology as being something way over my head. However, as long as we like or "dig" watches, and enjoy the hobby, then that's what it's all about.  ..Thank you JC and Mark ! ____________________________________  | |
