      @Anesthetist that’s a really nice looking watch. Pretty simple design, but looks cool.

        @alexxedge thank you kindly. I have always loved the Gshock square and have a nice little collection of them. This one is a collab w Packer of Japan. It is supposed to look post apocalyptic. Not sure if it does that but it is clean.

          New to me. Picked this up on the local used market. Slapped a new strap on and have been loving it.

            That’s a great find. Did you get a great deal I hope?

                      Brew Mastergraph eBay find. 2020 model, discontinued, I love these Brew watches. Y’all are sleeping on this brand…

                        @pechelman said in Random questions to which you seek an answer:

                        Western shirt with snaps at the cuff. It's mostly my fault because of my watch but the cuff is the smallest of any IH shirt I have.

                        Weird cross post/self quote, but since this is more watch related, putting it here. While I didn't change my watch, I did put on a different strap and it solved all of the issues. It's a little bit if a bummer since the isofrane is the best strap anywhere but these MN style straps might be right behind them in a distant second place.

                          When in Hamburg for the Anny party, September 2023, Swatch released the Fifty Fathoms collection. @Giles and I walked over to the Swatch shop to see if we could get a gander. But, there was a line at least 3 blocks long. Needless to say, we weren't inclined to wait. I've been keeping an eye out for one, though. I managed to nab a new/unworn one for 75% of retail. No waiting in line, either. I went with the Arctic/No Radiations dial version...

                            I’m still saving a spot for one of those @scooter What do you think?

                            Found this older Brew HP-1 Dark Brew…

                              A lot harder than I would have expected. The second hand was the rate limiting step.

                                  So I made a new one. It's not perfect, so I will have another go, but it works.....

                                    Can you get thinner cord for the 2nd keeper? It’d look more proportional to the overall watch and strap.

                                    The journey is the objective.

                                      Yes, and I will try with thinner. This was a 2 strand Turks Head, I'll try a 3 Strand with the thinner...

                                        That’s a cool diy fix. Might need Kevlar for extra security.
