Ah, close... but I've already got one of those. Good guess with the Seiko, as the Monsters and the old 6309 (and others) have the crown at 4:00 position. Don't all DOXA watches have the crown at 3:00? C'mon folks... first person to guess it gets to buy one for me!

Oooooooooooooo I've got it bad for one of these. I think it's time to offload a pile of watches and pick one up.

Of course they're not worth it. What's the old saying? "the world's most expensive $350 watch" But by golly they sure feel good on the wrist. Right now I'm struggling with NOT buying a vintage Doxa. C'mon it has a fricken cheap movement so where does the extra thousand bucks go? Same with Tudor and ETA movements. How are they different than Rolex movements? Let's discuss that in, oh, 50 years. THERE is the answer.

That's a reeeeeaaaaally nice case on the COMEX. What was the source?

I've got two of them. Do you want the other one?

I saw an ad for Watchadoo stainless steel bracelets for Seikos. I figured with a name like that... they've GOT to be cool right? So I ordered one. Here's how it looks, in the first snow of the season! Enjoy...

Excellent! Welcome to the insanity we call America.

A couple years ago there was a sudden flood of these impossible to find tropics. I did some investigating and many of them were generics from a few vintage rolls someone had unearthed. Proceed with caution... Waxed paper envelopes are easy to come by. Old yellowed tape is not. *cough*

@JoJo that's a spectacular King Kenny you have there. Verrrrrrrrry nice. Here's Charlie and Mike in the pits before a Superbike race. For bonus points can anyone tell me whose bike it is that Charlie's hand is resting on? This is very close to how Scooter looks today.

Yeah baby! My steed is a CB1100F from 1983. It was built by Charlie Macdonald, a close friend of mine and mechanic for Fast Freddie Spencer. The pipe was hand-bent by none other than Kaz Yoshima. She's a screamer and has more ponies than my Land-Rover.

Have a great trip! And thank you for working so hard to get my babies fixed before you go.

I didn't want to come right out and say it but... you may be right!

AYBABTU. The flying hamster of doom rains coconuts on your pitiful city. Is this helping? -Signed, your friendly and helpful Admin staff

BWAHAHAHAHAAAAaaaaaaa.....

Bwahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaa The answer is before your eyes

Ewwwwwwww FWIW, I have never had a watch freeze up, and I used to work on the north slope in the corrosion control group, outdoors, in wind chills frequently down to -150F or -170F. Never had a watch quit working... Mostly because you keep it under your coatsleeve! But thanks for the link!

Isn't that wild? The early morning sun was hitting it from the left, so sunlight was coming up out of the water. That's about 40' down from my ledge and the cascade drops were about 5' or 6' each.

That's the runout from a huuuuge avalanche in1981. The deciduous trees are the first to grow back. The snow photo is from the top of the peak that avalanched in the background. What a glorious day!

I did a nice long backcountry trip this weekend, and scored some photos with the iPhone. Sorry for the picture quality... It's in the 20s and 30s now... winter is coming! Gorge at sunrise Zug's slide Chillin' wit da houndog

It's Autumn here too... 25 degrees this morning!

Ah, you beat me to it... I was Snoping it out myself. Your findings are correct. The true underlying problem here is, Starbucks coffee sucks anyway! If you want to treat the troops to some fine beans, send them Kaladi Brothers coffee from here in the frigid north. Mmmmmmmm good.
