On a last min trip I managed to make it to an AP boutique. After a wonderful visit I walked out with an Offshore chronograph. I got the gray dial titanium 42mm and it’s the one that I’ve been wanting the most. I did a ton of research and was between this and the khaki (green) dial. It was a total surprise that they had it available and didn’t play any games at all. The fit and finish is amazing the only issue is that I’m sorta in between sizes on the bracelet, So I will wear on rubber for a while till I decide if I can do a 1.5 link to be perfect.

Last watch for a while I promise

Added another want to the collection today. I’ve been going back and forth pretty hard on a white dial, was between explorer 2 and omega smp. Explorer 2 won out in the end…. Early birthday present, fit the bill for a white dial hole in the collection. I totally love it, comes across very tool watch less Rolex flashy!

Beyond excited Had a surprising call last night from the Rolex ad I visited a few weeks ago. They had revived my Sea dweller 43 and it was ready if I was! So I made the trip today to pick it up. Such a great experience that I will always remember. Its very different than my speedy and I feel they are the best of both worlds. Really happy and shocked with how fast it took to come in. Originally she had mentioned it would be mid next year. So less than 3 weeks is pretty sweet. I may or may not have shown interest in gmt too

Decided yesterday to pull the trigger on a long time want. Probably close to 20 years in the making. Picked it up today. Absolutely love it. IWC big pilot

@Giles do you still have that platinum one you were holding on to for a friend or something? I can’t remember the details totally

Backup delivered! Amazing shipping time from Brooklyn clothing in Canada. Next day.

Hard to believe there isn’t more evo on my original one. I have worn it ton and I felt like it had more than shows in the picture

Just washed my 777s BB and I am about to drop off at SE to get some fixes done and hem a pair of XHSMB. I am very tempted to start wearing my backup pair of these they are brand new

Mine hardly has any evo really. Prob a week or two worth of wear so far. My olive one has more wear on it. I’ll try to get a few pics of it too at some point

After a month or two of thinking I went with a speedy sapphire sandwich. Probably will look at a diver next or possibly IWC big pilot. Going to enjoy this Omega every day

@Anesthetist Amazing Chrono! I was just looking on the website, it has an open case back right? I really like that too. IWC makes some really sweet stuff. Congrats to you too! Did you just get it also?

@Giles I’d love to see some pictures of it Thanks

IH hoodie pic… It will be a while before this comes off my wrist!

Getting a few fixes on these at SE so I just washed them and took a few quick pictures

@Anesthetist
I can totally understand that! I was originally supposed to grab a ghost Daytona on oysterflex in a few weeks but went in and was like no way they would have anything but it can’t hurt to look

Needless to say the ghost budget is gone

I wear 10.5 d or e in Wesco’s my RM are 10E and roomy so I would say size down. I love mine so much. I’m hoping to get in the next preorder for the stichdown makeup. I saw them in nyc at boot camp last fall

The last month or so I’ve gotten back into the flashlight game.
About a month ago I grabbed a Okluma dc0 and dc1 in TI, they are getting finished up now for delivery in the next month or so for both hopefully.
In the meantime I grabbed a few different TI CWF lights a peanut, micro clic and mini click. After that I got a both bronze and copper DC0. I really like the 14500 size light.

Here’s the group photo. I really like the Okluma’s and can’t wait for my pre orders

Near an AD on a get away for the weekend. I had previously thought maybe the Daytona would be a good fit for me, but after trying on I really didn’t dig it at all as it felt small. This one was PM oysterflex. Which was very comfortable though. I really liked the panda dial

They did have a sky dweller that I enjoyed on oysterflex but it too was PM and they didn’t have any steel versions.

Yeah, I agree that’s a good fit. The shoulder thing I didn’t even notice for a while but now I do….. That being said it’s mostly on my black big buck, the green doesn’t have it as bad and the pale rider even less.

That leather is awesome and won’t be back

Both big bucks and the original leather on the pale rider.
