    Civic art where I live is so awful, and the public reaction to it has been so adverse, that the city has called a halt to a multi-million dollar budget for civic art. The city is so ashamed of the “Big Blue Hula Hoop” (a 20’ diameter steel hoop standing on edge) that I am unable to upload an image of it as the file has an “illegal extension”! I like your civic art better!

    Found out why “crown guards” make sense when I caught the protruding crown on my Heuer 1550SG doing yard work and it pulled out. Found a correct NOS crown/stem from Germany. Just got it all back together.

    Made for flying aircraft, not lawn mowers! The crown protrudes by design, and crown guards would significantly inhibit the utility of the watch for its intended purpose whilst wearing flight gloves, hence not part of the mil-spec. Fortunately parts are not difficult to find for these and glad you've got yours sorted!:thumbsup:
