Reminds me that we need to get together for a beer or three sometime this summer @wschofield3 Fenway? Wanna go to Lowell to see a PWHL game? We're thinking about goiong to the May 4 game. They are a lot of fun. And very physical!

An Uncle Seiko President, which he calls a Lincoln. The quality is up to the mark for a Tudor and I might prefer it to the standard bracelet. Looking for images on Google, I found that it’s a fairly common combination.

My man! Looking good. Happy?

I am. As expected, and if you imagine something like a test gauge, a bracelet does swing the needle into the ‘contemporary’ half of the dial, but that’s also the ‘smarter’ half of the dial. Swings and roundabouts. The benefit of the Uncle Seiko bracelet is that the watch still doesn’t look standard-issue, which I didn’t want with the ubiquitous Black Bay. Nobody sees that but me, but still.

The faff of swapping the bracelet in and out might well mean that it stays this way. I failed to do it myself, without springbar tweezers. I got it done at a Timpson’s portakabin in Tesco’s car park.

I've used timpsons for battery replacements before, partly because they offer free ones for life thereafter! Nothing wrong with that.

I'm up for it! Let me know and we will make it happen.

Was able to meet @wschofield3 today, he was in town for a trade show. We had fun, and then met a bunch of his buddies for an impromptu watch gathering.

It was so good to see you, @mlcor! I hope you enjoyed the audio systems, time to trade some watches in for that big one you heard - it is only about 750K!

I have an ironclad rule--no speakers that weigh over 500 pounds.

In case anyone's interested:



Note the massively thick power cables from the amps.

They are only 25 pounds each over that, I'll come to help haul them.

Just you…and a small crane.
