· ·Not in LA anymore.OMG it's OMC... 😀
Today being a quiet holiday, took care of a once or twice per calendar year ritual...
My OMC features the Cal.1516, which was used in the Gen 2 version. Forum member @Lou P owns the OG-OMC with the Cal.1511, of which only 1,000 were made.
Two new Renata batteries are on the way from Amazon.

LATE ENTRY: Wishing all a happy and safe Memorial Day…please remember our fallen sisters and brothers that made the ultimate sacrifice.

· ·YaY!In addition to the annual black-eyed cicadas we get in Jul/Aug, many of us in the US occasionally get some red-eyed periodical cicadas. For us in the Chicago area, it's that time now for our 17 year cycle "brood XIII" cicadas. If you're a map reader, this may help.
You may also notice that 13 year "brood XIX" are also out this year and in some places they overlap, such as east-central Illinois. These simultaneous emergences are very rare, and of course are over-amped by the media as if it's happening everywhere. It's not.
Anyway, 17 years ago, during our last emergence I took this wrist shot which served as my avatar for a while on some of the older forums (before OF). The X-33 was critical in recording the year!
Well, I put the same strap, which I've been preserving, on the same X-33 and just got back from a pleasant walk.
The next time they come around, I'll be 73, and hopefully still enjoying watches and sharing wrist shots. YaY!

A top contender for the best WRUW post of the year, maybe the last 17 years!
Looking forward to a return to this subject in 17 years 😀
