·Haha, good one. Wait staff must get lots of "it's noisy/sunny/cold/windy at this table", and "do you mind if we move, the view's better over there". So, did you use your excuse on her? How did she respond? I might try it just to see the reaction.

Nope I braved the danger with my Ti PO 600M. I’m such an extreme risk-taker

·I seriously have changed the way I walk. When I leave my office to turn left into the tight hallway, instead of turning counter clockwise 90 degrees, putting my left wrist in close proximity to the metal door jamb, I pirouette clockwise 270 degrees to the right. NOT TODAY DOOR, NOT TODAY

·The wife clanked the metal seatbelt buckle off my hesalite while we were boarding TestTrack at Disney last month. She thought I was upset about the watch but I was more annoyed that she almost chipped my wrist bone 😁 Speedmaster for the save!

This is funny because I was at Disney yesterday and opted to NOT wear the Speedy.
There were a couple times yesterday where I thought to myself "....dang, glad I didn't have the Speedy on!"

·Well, this is the perfect time and to tell my sad, sad story...
On December 7th, while I was changing at my gym's locker room, I dropped my jacket with my Railmaster LE in the pocket. I didn't think much until I reached in and felt shards of glass....My crystal SHATTERED!!! Unfortunately, the watch landed right on the domed crystal and the even though the floor wasn't tile, it was just enough force to break it. My heart sank and in a couple hours I was handing it to my rep at my local OB from where I purchased the watch originally. Because I also scratched the dial, a full $ervice is required since a dial replacement is offered as an à la carte repair....bummer. I tried to talk myself into being comfortable with keeping the new "character" on the dial, but I knew that it would bug me every time I looked at the watch. Also, it's a really downer that I'll be without my favorite watch until some time in March.
The small piece of good news is that I'll have the spare dial and handset to experiment with or possibly sell. (I wonder if the hands would fit the previous generation Railmaster 2503?)
So here's the lesson: sapphire crystal are very scratch proof, but not at all crack proof.
