“What Are You Wearing?”, you ask.

Well, it looks like I’m wearing this goddamn contraption for the next six weeks following rotator cuff and bicep tendon surgery last Friday. Sorry if I don’t look too happy.

The sharp-eyed among you will notice my Speedmaster 1861 is neatly Velcroed to the top of the wedge-shaped pad and sling. I finally found a real use for that long astronaut strap that came in the big box!

Ouch! I feel for you. Wishing you a swift and full recovery. Cheers!

I'm empathizing with you. Best wishes for a happy and full recovery.

I was in your shoes (well ... contraption) for the same shoulder surgery to repair a full tendon tear except that they also shaved some arthritis and trimmed some cartilage and scar tissue in early October 2020. Was right shoulder so didn't impact my method of watch wearing. As I'm right handed it impacted most everything else.

Best contemporary use of the NASA replica strap ever!

And wishing you the speediest recovery ever 😀
