    Always put your watch on over a table, and never drop it on a tile. :thumbsdown:

    That's a different dial - what's up with that one-hour marker?

    Uh huh. :rolleyes: He is from New York. I'm sure he knows a few choice words from the North Eastern US vocabulary.

    Been there, done that. Always put your watch on over the bed, or carpeted floor. Never in the kitchen or bathroom!!!!

    I had my 911 Flightmaster fly across a room off my wrist due to a weak pin while at a watch boutique. Luckily it bounced on parquet wood flooring. No damage or change in timing. Really dodged a bullet on that one.

    Meanwhile enjoy this one:

    Looks a little like my middle finger after got it slammed and then caught under a steel bar in the belt-sander 2 weeks ago. On the whole, I wish it had been my watch :(

    (Slowly healing though, that's what ERs are for :p)

    Drug. Dennis? Drug? Is "drag" an irregular verb in the US? I know "dive"
    Is, but "drug?" ;)

    Btw - what did happen to the sDweller?

    I doubt that SD is even real, the date window looks different as does the font on the dial
