Pugwash

You lucky bleeder!

This works with most quartz chronos and none of the mechanicals.

Very nice. I still prefer the Carrera, but I know this will make some people very happy.

I realised I'd need a chronograph today and this one hasn't seen enough love recently so it was an easy choice. Oddly enough, it's been so long since I've worn it, I needed to shrink the bracelet a half-link down. Amazing what no longer having paid access to a French canteen at lunchtimes does to your weight.

Yeah, I need to update this post with these four: My Noobmariner LV is unmoded, straight from TTK. My Steelfish is unmodded, straight from Precious Time. My SS Chrono Avenger is unmodded from TWP. My IWC 3717 is modded (ETA day/date) but originally from Precious Time. For more info on my Steelfish, see By-Tor's Breitling Guide.

Any time, Barbie!

The problem here is the cherry-picking of things to report on. The number of abortions and mothers dying from abortions is a political statistic, for instance. If it had US deaths by firearms, it'd be political as well, but in a different way. As for verifying, check the WHO, the OECD, etc.

I've got the cake ready.

good stuff.

Update: This Daytona scared me so much I bought that one off Narikaa:

Best ever rep, by the way.

Tuesday, most likely off to the cinema to see the new Ghibli movie (possibly dubious as it's the son of Hayao Miyazaki that did this one, and to mixed reviews ...) so I'm deciding what to wear. I think this one will suit the evening:

Google has 1/3 of the employees of SAP. Oracle and MS are around 75000 each, SAP is at 35000 and Google is at 13000. Adobe is at 6000, but companies like Sun, IBM and HP are hardware and software, so they don't count towards "largest software company". Not a fan of SAP, but I can research 'facts' before posting them ... ... and yes, any piece of software that needs that many developers is doomed to be plagued with bugs.

Yesterday, on Vic B's belated birthday, I was going to post this. Gots me a black-strapped Tinhaddock. Double-plus good, me droogs. Happy Bidet, Victoria.

You have a PM.

Yes, she did. The Karmann Ghia was a classic, even then. They stopped making them 12 years before PiP and that's long enough for them to have become collector's items.

I presume the double-entendre is mimsy-related.

I tend to get my G10 straps from Eddie at Timefactors. http://timefactors.co.uk/nato.htm

Today, a nice bit of beef for my sunday roast:

When house prices are rocketing and rent is staying the same, you know it's a bubble: If a house's true value increases, rental on an identical property would increase at the same rate.

Looks good!

Yeah, patience. You can only take metal off, not add it back.

Mine is the 21/18 that came with the watch. I got the steel bracelet (never used) and the strap at the same time as the watch from Precious Time.
