First day on the wrist. Not bad but I definitely do not like how stiff the strap is

Still the 3861 at the office…on its original band for today. Also, picked up this H-D patch for Mrs. Mad Dog [aka MacGyverette] at the Montego Bay airport H-D store today…Mother’s Day present…



Bonus pic from a few days ago of Mrs. Mad Dog and Mr. Mad Dog on her H-D…

New strap day for the daughter's Railmaster and a solid cleaning for both including dad's 4512...

Yeah those straps are terrible. I tossed mine as soon as I found a reasonable replacement. This one is by Barton, smooth, supple, and pure blanco!

It's not your Grandfather's Longines. It wears large and heavy, so the jury is still out on its tenure in the stable. I've tried several strap options to gain comfort and maintain control, but haven't found an acceptable solution yet; I have more straps and a Forstner bracelet coming by post over the next few weeks, so I'm hoping for the best.

Had to steal a photo of the kid's Railmaster on the new tropical on my wrist before giving it back...

if this watch was 2-4mm smaller it wouldn't be hers.

If I do get it, it'll be on the bracelet me thinks.
