·I wish the power reserve were smaller so I could wind them more often.
What are some of your quirky watch behaviors?

Yeah, and the watch had some type of meter to let you know when...... oh, wait - they have them. Never mind!

·Quirky behaviour? Well, I bought a UV torch (flashlight) in order to give my Lume a quick boost every now and then. When I wind I always try and make sure the Omega letter is upright at the end, and I also make sure that when I set my watch down for the night, there is material (cloth) between the case back and bracelet, and bracelet and table, in order to eliminate scratches. At the moment, that purpose is being fulfilled by a folded over eye mask. I know.

··ΩF InvestiGator1. I try to purchase period correct original boxes (not always the exact original) to store my watches.
2. I use Emerald app to average 4 different atomic clocks on my iPhone to set the time. On a different watch, every day.
3. I've totally lost count of the number of watches I own.
4. They made me a mod here.
Think I've got some issues? 🙄

We already knew Dennis had been banned from WatchUSeek, two Chipotle restaurants and some parts of Philadelphia and was suspected in the kidnapping of an Axolotl named Jojo but we gave him the benefit of the doubt and it worked out great 👍

·Let me know when - there's a few of us in the metro area that don't mind a sip or two once in a while. I prefer Eulogy on Chestnut between Front & 2nd but any place that has decent dark beer works for me.
@ulackfocus - I do very much appreciate the offer. I will be traveling 5 days and during that time I will be in DC, Philly and NYC touring the sites with my youngest son, who at this point proudly wears a timex ironman (Ugh really, I know). He is 16 so there still may be hope, but I don't think a group of middle aged men talking watches while having a few drinks will help the cause. So sadly I will pass until next time.

·I'm embarrassed to admit it but sometimes...not all the time, but sometimes... I actually use my watch to find out what time it is. I know I know that's what cell phones are for but what can I say.

Multiple times with at least a half dozen screen names, but that's par for the course there.
ps - You forgot TimeZone. Twice. 😁
two Chipotle restaurants
"The Burrito Incident". 😲 😟
and some parts of Philadelphia
Yes, but I'm also the Middleweight Champion of 16th and Race!
and was suspected in the kidnapping of an Axolotl named Jojo
All hearsay and conjecture...... at least that's what my lawyer told me to say since there's a lack of evidence. 😝

·When trolling the 'bay for Longines and I run into a Wittnauer described as a Longines, I ask the seller for a picture of the part of the watch that says Longines on it.
I don't usually get a response.
