This today. Been sat in front of my PC all day drafting a strategy doc. Square eyes now and I need a cup of tea, so please excuse me...

Morning, Robert!
Is it tragic that I recognised your background picture before I recognised your beater, a model which we share?

I keep mine on a sunny shelf, ready to leap into use, the ultimate grab & go with up-to-date day, date, daylight saving, atomically accurate etc
I love that the second hand perfectly hits the markers too
A stealth joy :-)

All of this so true, Kath. And yes, perhaps tragic in a trainspotter sort of way!
Now of course I'm curious what about the background you recognize: 1) the fact that the photo dates back to 2010 from WUS era; 2) the fact that it's a LP cover to a 1980 era Jon Hassell album or 3) that it's a Mati Klarwein painting? I mean, let's face it, if we're gonna be trainspotters then we need to decide if we're more interested in the engine, the caboose, the station schedule or the track gauge!

I have always been fond of the caboose

And who doesn't like a good caboose now and then?

Lol, I remember the pic from your WUS era posts

And I just had to look up caboose

I getcha, a brake van :-)

2) the fact that it's a LP cover to a 1980 era Jon Hassell album

This for me, though I'd probably refer to it as mid-eighties...

Since we have a couple of these on the thread today, I'll join in ...



Many watches have come and gone since acquiring this EMG, and I still think it an incredible bargain, perfectly sized and aesthetically interesting.

And the Iyonk strap certainly helps bring it all together.

I did a swap pretty early in the day when I realized I might need timing capabilities at work. Since acquiring the quartzTikis the T-Lord has lost it's spot as the tool chronograph, so I figured I should pull it out today. So, T-Lord on Iyonk rally.
