    Trawling through some old images and came across this one, what was I thinking ?
    Wouldn't be half so bad were it not for all that fixed bar showing ::facepalm2::

    Anyone else want to confess their sins ?

    That's no worse than the 20-something at a local bank who wears a HUGE snow-white G-shock with a shirt and tie. :unsure: :thumbsdown:

    Years ago I put this South American Ebay purchased Constellation on a BOR of indeterminate origin because I became keen on BOR bracelets upon learning they existed. Not really an attractive combination, but it is handy as the only watch on a bracelet that I have. An additional '57 vintage Constellation has since been acquired to satisfy my preference for straps on watches.

    I see absolutely nothing wrong with this as I prefer bracelets to straps. :D

    This is the army dress uniform I'll be wearing next Saturday at an event:

    You won't believe what my colleagues wear on their wrists when dressed in one of these ::facepalm2::
    I've seen Suuntos and G-Shocks and huge diver's watches... It looks appalling.

    Very smart T. :thumbsup:

    I used to enjoy the full dress mess dining in nights. It was all "pomp and circumstance" for the entry and the dinner and a few drinks after, but then it usually got "a bit rowdy". Especially when bets and dares were involved. :D

    Have fun and wear a proper watch.

    But of course

    A stable part of the entertaintment is the rule stating that guests can hand in their place cards with a subject he or she wishes to hold a speech about written on the rear side...

    The fun part is to hand in other's cards with some outrageous subject - the officer will then have to wing it in front of the crowd :D

    Military style on trench strap .... not a faux pas in my book. I am however moving away from this on my Longines.

    ...yeah, I know. Thing is, I secretly really like bund straps. Still need to get me a proper vintage one like Alpha's.
