So awesome! 👍

Thanks for posting that! 👍

Also, your letterman jacket appears to be in really good condition! 👍

That's because after I'd had it for about 15 yrs, the sleeves, which were actually vinyl..not leather...began to get sticky and awful. I tried cleaning it, but it came back. At my school, we had to letter 7 times varsity to get a jacket, and the school paid for it, BUT they were too cheap to get leather. Anyway, they replaced it back in about 2000, and it's just hung in up, covered, ever since. The real question is: Who's the OLD guy in my photo?

Update: my wife had arts and crafts time at work and made me this amazingly weird Valentine's collage.

I'm both amazed that she found an old Accutron ad (in a national geographic), but also a bit bothered that she chopped it up, lol.

She then allowed me to tell her about Accutrons for 5 min, which may have been my Valentine's present?

Anyone else a fan of this silver dial version of the Seamaster Pro? Don’t see many of them relative to the other dial colors.

Just took this off at the end of the day. "Gawd I love this watch!" popped in my head. It's not rational.

My first Omega, purchased about 25 years ago. Dynamic III on a more recent CK2998 strap. It's seen quite a lot in its time, it has been flown in a BAE Hawk and F3 Tornado (though not by me) and on another less pleasant occasion was found in the street by a policeman after a burglary. It just wasn't meant for us to part it seems...
