Stopped by Fourtane's in Carmel the other day to BS with John's sons Josh and Kris and while there they let me have this bad boy for about 5 minutes and had to get an iphone pic... i know its been said here many times but this is one badass watch!

Maybe one of these days i will take it home!
Damn it looks good on my wrist!

It remains one of my favorites; an all-weather friend, if you will:
I love it.

I like your real life pics better Adam!

Really think i could cut my collection down by a bunch if i had this amazing watch! The 16613 was a gift and almost impossible to cut loose, my mentor & business partner would kill me, or would he....

I'm proud to say that I took one of AC's favorite pics of his watch.
...with my trusty point and shoot S90 no less.
It's a bad ass watch for sure. I'll likely never pony up the cash for it though.

It is a great shot, Nick, taken at Red Bar, no less.

Awesome piece of metal. Had it, sold it. Wish I could get it again. My wife's favorite of mine so far.

That's obviously not Adam's. Normally he crops the watermark out of the picture

im still trying to decide if those tudors are real and might make a trip back to his shop and try not to get booted out again, been doing alot of research and the one with the leather strap will give me some numbers i can look up plus ive found that the 390 17 jewel movement in the earlier models would wind a bit different than the ETA auto! But hell yeah in a perfect world i would be rockin the DSSD!

I like the picture he tried to forge as a snowboarding shot. The reality is Mrs. Craniotes told him to get his ass outside and shovel the walk!
Oh wait that was a JLC shot...what ever, you get my drift.
Yeah, I came at you.

Thanks Adam.
I go back and forth on the DSSD.
It's an awesome watch, without a doubt. However, the height is just damn outrageous and I woud prefer if it didn't have the text on the chapter ring; I get that the text isn't that big of a deal on the wrist, but still, I wish it wasn't there.
That's why it would be hard for me to part with the cash to get one.
Then the other side of me says its a marvel of engineering and one of the baddest watches ever made and wants to get one sooooo bad.
Damn this hobby and indecision.

Adam,
I'm frightened you have a second picture of that guy. Now go shovel the walk for your frau.
