As you may have noticed, we we're offline this morning. This was caused by the "Thanks" plug-in going rogue and using up way too many server resources. This triggered an automatic suspension by our hosting provider as they thought it was a malicious attack. The "Thanks" plug-in has been disabled, hopefully temporarily so I can determine if that was indeed the cause, and take steps to prevent it from happening in the future.

I apologize for the disruption and for any confusion that may have caused.

Visiting the Atlanta Christkindl Market tonight.
Definitely way bigger than it has been in prior years.

My green dial Orient Tri Star seemed festively appropriate.

Double-double animal style with animal fries and a neopolitan shake sounds good about now.

Wearing the PADI MM200 today on the Euclid strap by WatchBandit.

Zero break-in necessary. Great strap especially for the BF price at $22.

It's a sport coat and it's hideous. So are the pants LOL. Here's the back of the watch. You can have a glassback or send them an image file.

Haha, I was thinking it'd be hideous. That's awesome. Very cool about the image on the case back, I saw you did the engraving too. How long for delivery.
3 weeks. Worth it!

EDIT - 16 days actually with one of those days being Thanksgiving.

Really like this watch, was thinking if getting one. Seeing real life pics makes me want to pull the trigger. Also, very intrigued to see the whole Christmas shirt you're wearing...

Looks like Deathstroke. It is supposed to be?
Nah, it's the Corvette racing mascot of sorts, known as Jake. I have the same decal on my car.

The video below has zero production value, but it's the actual story.

This one has been missing for almost a year, and I found it today tucked away in a box in a closet with a couple of other watches.

I put this together from a ST3600 (Unitas 6497 clone) pulled out of an Akribos I got off Amazon for $13.98 and a new case, dial and hands from eBay.

Put a strap I received in the Watch Gecko Black Friday gift set and strapped it to my wrist. I've missed this thing. It's a pleasure to wind, is oddly among my most accurate watches and has about a 60 hour power reserve.
