    Just back late last night from Montreal, heading back out on Wednesday and figured I'd pay attention to some not worn in a while ...

    Prefer your Europa to the other version mate.

    I was picking up the kids from school when I passed a sight that, for all its cliche, still has a quiet majesty: A big blue tractor steadily ploughing as hundreds of seagulls wheel and jostle to feed on the freshly turned worms. I stopped the car and we watched as it worked its way across the field, turned smoothly and returned. I think I got a perfect photo of it:



    I'm really enjoying the AM. Cheers again Alan.

    To be fair:

    One thing I can clearly see it that you just provided your friend with a VERY SIGNIFICANT UPGRADE to his Maurice Lacroix!!! Beautiful upgrade, and I must say, this one looks very sweet on your wrist!!!

    (btw, praying that you can find the perfect job to support your family iyonk).
    the watch use proprietary lug screws and in 21mm, so the owner got some difficulties to find replacement... i did some custom lug thickness part to match the watch contour, and curve the lug end for the combo.. it was a very hard job, but i made it and it save the watch..
    i will inform tomorow and hope he like the result..

    i did work very hard on a couple music projects for the last 5 months only to be informed that the project got canceled from the producer... huge bummer and heart breaking for me since i work so hard on them and expecting to earn from it..

    i still help some friends with my music talent... like these church singers that have no fund for their project, so i gave them some jump start and pay it forward.. i have faith in them..
    arrange the music, record their vocals in my home studio, direct their vocals, mix the project - all for free... they are still very limited in shooting the video clip skill though..

    one of the powerful song by Leonard Cohen - Hallelujah.. (short version)

    Thank you Dave.. appreciate it mate..

    yes, i slow down rapidly in strap making... and i made that one from my last piece of premium black material..
    the original strap degrading like that in the drawer.. and yes it was just ruined even though it was an expensive croco strap due to all the glue fail as time goes by..
    i did in love with that beautiful watch.. will send it back tomorow though..
