Compliant today thanks to the HUISABH thread and my new 5KX!!(well, one of them!). The push pull crown is really effing with me since I am so accustomed to a regular SKX. Aside from that, everything seems to be improved! The strap is very soft and supple, more like what came I'm my turtles as opposed to the garbage that came on SKX's. Also carnivore compliant with my first attempt at Turkey meatballs.

Field Watch Friday compliant with the trusty Glycine. This is finally getting the wrist time it deserves thanks to field watch Friday and a leather strap.

Ahhhh, Saturday. Typical German weekend double beverage compliance while waiting for my wife at the eyeglass store.

Edit: That second beer was for her, but she is still adjusting glasses...what's left of her beer:

Idk how I keep going so many days while forgetting to post. Didn't feel like setting another watch after the gym and this one was still going. Plus I love it.
Lazy Sinn Saturday!

Beverage compliant, even though it's not my Sangria, and molcajete.

Wife knows better than to leave her beverage unattended, even when it's not my favorite. Image

This is the first and only time I will ever post wrist shots of and Omega and a Rolex in the same post 8-) .

I was out of town for a few days this week and only wore my running watch. Stopped in a BBQ restaurant in Chattanooga, TN only to find the fellow running the register wearing this. He was super cool and told me that he bought it for himself for his 21st birthday. I don’t think he’s second guessing himself, but he did feel the need to explain. I told him about my one-watch-uncle who has wore the same sub everyday since 1987, except for service sessions. I really enjoyed our conversation.

Bonus pic from the Grove Park Inn in Asheville. I stumbled across this sunrise while looking for a gift for my son. Stood awestruck at the window while people walked by in both directions and was reminded of the Ferris Bueller quote about life moving fast and stopping to take a look. The sky was like this for only about fifteen seconds.

Today I saw “one-watch-uncle.” He was I interested in seeing the Q and I am always interested in seeing the one watch!

Yep, that’s the one. Thank you.

I’m back at home. We had a birthday party for my son today, my wife found out that I bought the Q as a reward to myself for repairing the refrigerator, and I back to browsing watches. Life is good!

Posting late, but still awake, so here we go. Started off Seiko Saturday compliant. Then switched it up for dinner with the in laws. I was excited to see my FIL wearing the 8926 I built him, and we celebrated with some exceptional tequila. And since he was Seiko powered compliant I had to take some pics.

Great post! I will eventually end up with that Seiko. That dial! The mod I would happily pay for. I think it is my favorite of yours. Top it off with the tequila (and the father-in-law!) and the Speedy...and what else could you ask for?

Oh, your wife’s watch! She can join in the fun :D

Mod-Monday compliant with a suede strap for the Codek. First time really wearing this watch, as I got a little busy and then realized I wanted a different strap than the black shell cordovan it came on. I think it pairs well and makes me think orange suede would look dynamite to complement the tip of the second hand. Orange would also serve me well for wearing at Clemson sporting events!

Mod Monday compliance. Landshark on a Zuludiver wave strap. This one is much softer and pliable than any of the Seiko straps like this I’ve had.
