Measure twice, cut once. Mattcandothis

Love that lume dial, Matt.

Re: Incoming - Has Arrived

Take your time cutting that strap! I had my first experience cutting a rubber strap with my Delugs CTS. They give you an extra strap in case you mess up and they do provide 2 adjustment holes on each side of the clasp, but it's still a little unnerving as you're cutting, refitting, testing, and cut...

Re: Incoming - Has Arrived

FedEx just delivered the watch. Initial impressions are very positive. https://i.imgur.com/oFTZMNz.jpg I had some concern about the "red color" of the red strap. I like it, not screaming red. https://i.imgur.com/okRwNLW.jpg I still have to size the strap - carefully. As you can see in the picture, p...

Re: Incoming

Worth sharing that each of these were purchased through Exquisite Timepieces.

I worked with Nick; great sales experience(s) and excellent pricing.

Aside from being such a sturdy and utilitarian design, my experience with MG is that the movement s are tweaked beautifully to keep very very good time. Like 1-2 secs a day.
Yep, finding that with mine.

Re: Incoming

Well I am so glad the idea is becoming a reality Matt because it was a fantastic idea ! :excited: ;) I mean having two of any MG, or honestly any watch would be great. :grin: However, these Rescue Timers just really have such a stand out in the crowd look, and adding a white dial into the fold was ...

I've been very happy with the Rescue Timer.

Unique style, wears great.


I've been kicking around the idea of adding another for a good while.



Order placed this morning.

A video is up. While I like it fine, it doesn’t make me want to get in line just yet.

Re: White Speedmaster

I've gotten myself to calm down. I've moved on from "expensive watches"; finding I can do pretty well around $3,000 and below, but I really like this version of the Speedmaster. I figured I could sell some watches to put towards the cost, but would have to move out the more expensive watches. Thinki...

Re: New Citizen Tsuyosa dial colors and small seconds models

So, I spent some time looking into this, Tom. A lot of favorable reviews, but several note the difficulty with the recessed crown. I think an Eco-Drive version with a better crown design might tip the scales for me. Funny, the recessed crown was a pro to me when I noticed it! I don't mind that it's...
