Things that keep time and stuff thread

Well, the factory bracelet got snatched up before I got to it......saves me 5 hundo.
Did snag a crafter blue rubber strap for a good price though, can't wait for it to get here

Crafter blue has a fairly good reputation. They aren't Rubber B or Everest, but they're a solid product.

The new dive strap showed up today. It's long as fuck, which is nice. A lot of bands and straps these days are made for the 'modern millennial twink' or some such shit and, as a result, don't fit if your wrist is over 7.25".
I'm hoping to get it on tonight...

Yep, belonged to my aunt. She was a spitfire. Hopkins & Allen Vest Pocket pistol in .22 short. Trigger folds up. It's pretty comical to shoot but I wouldn't want to be on the wrong end of it either!

I need that. Combine it with the my cobray terminator. Then I'll get a trap door springfield & start entering 3 gun matches!

Whenever RSC decides to send my watch back, I'm going to order a bracelet from strapcode (still can't bring myself to order the $800 factory bracelet)

Good call. That's 800 you'd never get back.

Just got the call, my watch is ready to be picked up!!!!

Arrived a few days ago - a new stainless bezel and bracelet for the G-shock square. I haven't decided if I like it yet.

This weekend was the first time in a long while that i missed having a watch. Gotten used to my phone a bit too much.

This post is a bit dated, but I’d like to add something new to the discussion. To keep track of time, I think there's something special about having a good watch. Sure, phones do the job, but there's just something satisfying about wearing a timepiece. I’ve always had a soft spot for the patek philippe aquanaut replica. It’s sleek, stylish, and doesn’t scream for attention, but it still gets noticed best. I know many people look for replicas to get a similar feel without the hefty price tag, and I get that. They can look pretty close to the real deal! If you’re after a solid watch that can stand the test of time, something like this is worth checking out.
