Thanks....Not new..but not sure if they still offer it. Railroad chrono..pretty sure it’s part of the jazz master line. I got it from eBay maybe 2 years ago...nice watch although the hands are tough to read in certain light but overall a good watch

Oh that's truly ugly, I don't think I could ever wear that quite apart from all the doors I would bang into and other things I would accidently catch with it, I think after seeing that I better go and have a lie down till I catch my breath and my heart stops racing, some things you just cant un-see.

Porsche Design Flat Six, Sellita SW200 automatic.


Mostly enjoy the vintage pieces & own very few modern, but there's just something I like about the PD design language.

...and then there was this critter on the trail, a juvenile Western Diamondback...my third rattlesnake encounter since March of this year...



...but fortunately the cool weather kept this dude/dudette in a relatively lethargic state, and it was easy to gently encourage it to leave the trail. The creature was so cold it couldn't even vibrate its tail...poor thing.


Gorgeous specimen! I’d say that’s a lucky trio of encounters, so long as you didn’t get bit!


Yesterday, I had an encounter with this rat snake while walking near my sister’s house in North Texas.

This (let’s call it a gal) reptile surprised me by attempting to crawl up into my shorts!

Luckily, I was able to stop her progress before she encountered the other snake! 😁

Looks like classic tree-climbing behaviour, done when the animal is alarmed. Glad it didn’t reach the tree’s low-hanging fruit!

Doing my part to honor my dad...WWII...Adak Island working communications out on the DEW Line...his watch and one of his favorite meals!
I'm doing the easy part...they did the hard part.

Adak Island was a pretty odd situation in WWII, my father in law’s unit (1st Special Service Force) saw their first assignment there. Lovely watch
