Re: Incoming! What have you got in the mail?

DF3A79E1-2BA6-462B-BE91-B7D02BF72AE5.jpeg I could not resist the 8-bit Brew. So awesome! Excited to see pics, I've been tempted by it too. Love the caseback. I am also excited. Going to put this on my Forstner Komfit Wide. Should look super awesome. I am also considering making up something custom ...

Re: August 2021 Watch Fast Challenge

Thanks for picking this up this year. It has been pointed out that the term ‘fast’ is a bit of a misnomer, rather it is an opportunity to really get to know one watch very well. I accept the challenge and will be wearing a Casio F-91W. It is on stock rubber, but I reserve the right to change straps ...

I am glad that it is working out for you. The bandaid/springbar tool addition just kind of came to me and I ran with it. I am glad that you enjoyed the joke.

Re: Best watch for $100 challenge

Very subjective, but I have some ideas. Vostok Amphibia Classic: ~$75 meranom.com So many case styles and dials to choose from. Exploring the options is an adventure. You get a tank proof automatic dive watch that has a deep rooted history. Casio GShock DW5610 of some variety. There are some inverte...

Re: Altoids Tin Springbar Kits- Join the Waiting List

If you think you are on the waiting list and I haven’t reached out to you, please send me a message. I have enough built up kits to clear the waitlist with a small inventory (1 full kit and 2 basic kits). Once I get a few more made up, I am going to list them in the bazar. That means that I am going...

I still have a Junghans digital coming from Serbia. Has only been a month and a half, so I am not worried yet.

Last night I impulse purchased a used Citizen Nighthawk off of eBay.

Re: Altoids Tin Springbar Kits- Join the Waiting List

Got the second round of full springbar kits out today, and those should land next week.

I have a couple of basic kits that I need to put together and then I will be in contact with those that are on the list for those once that is done.

Re: Altoids Tin Springbar Kits- Join the Waiting List

I love my springbar kit from @sporkboy, but of course I had to make some modifications to personalize it a bit. I decided to add an index label inside the lid and gave the outside an orange paint job complete with vintage Sea Wolf decal. I think it turned out pretty good! https://uploads.tapatalk-c...
