    I needed (wanted) an OSU watch so I made one on Zazzle. Oh the horror! Should be fun with a NATO.

    I know its not the typical watch that makes it into this thread, but I just had to get one! Plus at 25 CAD at your local walmart I figured there was no harm in picking one up. Just think about it, this watch is an investment, all the money you can save from over tipping....

    One thing you realize when using a digital watch is how much harder and less intuitive it is to set the time and date in comparison to analog.

    I bought a Watchco built SHOM a couple of weeks ago that has an Omega mesh bracelet that I fell in love with :) I just needed to get one to use with my Speedys and I found this one that arrived today:

    Maybe I can use it with my Speedy Tuesday LE when I get it this summer?

    Cool.
    And it is a watch with a nick name, one the Davidoff brothers failed to include I believe:
    meet the Walter White
    :D:cool::)

    I bought one of those for my CFO. He never brings a calculator to our meetings.

    Just arrived from France. Dreffa with Valjoux 7730. Now I have to wait another week for the strap. Turns out it requires a 21mm strap.
    The movement is amazing!

    I love mine, which I picked up for much less at at local drugstore (also in Canada). The dual time is fantastic. I also like that one can synch it to the second. Here's a bad wrist shot during a trip earlier this week (note it is on the dual time/"DT" display setting)
