Is this story really about a watch?

Cool watch though.

 

Thanks!!! New Ultegra 11 speed.
Had a complete BG/Retul fitting which really dialled me in on the bike, but I had to flip the stem as you can see. Hope to get a bit more comfortable and flexible so I can put it back in negative position, but either way I'm thrilled with it.

Meh, watch will ruin my tan lines, lol. Seriously though, all I wear on my wrist is a RoadID.

 

I aim to please. Thanks!

 

how come everybody that comes up with a new beater has come up with a Seiko......

I think we're all just closet Seiko nuts who use the "beater" thing as a excuse!

like this one..... another beater!

 

Please, please, please tell me you wrote this master class double entendre on purpose!!!!

It reads like some random guys first trip to Bangkok...

This is a 3570 that I retrofitted to look like a 35th Apollo XI LE.

It is also made the birth year of my youngest son and I will gift it to him in 15 or so years.

 

Eeek!

Oh, and dibs! If such can be said of such a piece.

 

You're on to us. Seikos slip right by the wife most times.

 

Yeah, Seikos are really cheap and don't count, right My new beater Wonder where they got the case design inspiration from?

 

Oh, and something else on the way as well Sellers pic, hope to have next week.

 

First Longines, now Zenith! What other brands you going into next?

 

Love is a fickle creature

 

Wow. The Barking mad seal of approval for my Zenith Rainbow. I might have to crank it up and actually wear it. It is, along with my Breguet Transatlantic, my son's favorite watch.

 

I actually own 5 Zenith El Primero chronographs. I'll post some pics in the next few days.

A while back, my younger son was bothering me to buy a Rolex Daytona. Although I own a few, I personally think Rolexs are overrated. So I did so Daytona research and discovered that, not only did the Daytona use the Zenith movement for 13 years, Rolex actually slowed it down and removed the date function. Then I noticed that the Zenith movement Daytona were 5-10 times more expensive then the Zenith. I bought zero Daytona's, 5 Zeniths. My son wasn't amused. Of course now he likes, and wears, a Speedmaster 145.012-67.

 

My Seiko diver didn't slip by my wife...... after a long string of really nice Omegas and small military pieces she proclaimed it the ugliest thing she'd ever seen on my wrist!.

but then..... she wear quartz!

 

Congrats! Slip on that original DON, and it'll look even more spectacular...

But inquiring minds want to know: which part of the 'transitional' was on your wrist, and how did that feel ?

 

Good thing I didn't add that part about feeling butthurt from the price...!
