  1. Not only did he eat the food, but afterwards, he decided to trash the van Now that's an Alaskan bear for ya!
  2. Very nice write up! FWIW, M.O.D. specs also originally called for a 19mm size. Finally you guys can all help promote it's proper designation as "G-10" and not "Nato".
  3. I voted, and I voted 'cause I like yours the best.
  4. Nice work. Turned out looking sweet! And this is coming from an owner of a genuine 1675
  5. I am sure it will be expensive. Think about it: all of us will be buying one regardless, right? We all want one. So, we will pay. Sad, but true. I am trying to wind down purchasing reps for this very reason. But, like Kruzer00 said, I'm in on the BP when it comes out
  6. Added a Leica C-Lux 2 to the portable fold while the Leica D-Lux 3 goes in for warranty repair (shutter froze). I am not thrilled with the 4:3 aspect ratio at 7MP (max. resolution). I really like the 16:9 that the D-Lux 3 takes @ 10MP. The max for 16:9 for the C-Lux 2 is a measly & noisy 5.5MP. Oh well. As always, there just is no pocketsized camera anywhere near as good as a DSLR with "L" lenses.
  7. I really like the dial. Now go out and beat the shitt out of the case!!
  8. Looks good. You should be happy with the results. GS works great, but is does not always dry 'clear', it leaves little residue crystals. But it's one of the best you can get for the job(s). Cheers
  9. Some ruminations upon G10 straps: Tan/kakhi looks cool, green is without a doubt tough looking, gray is weirdly National Socialist, blue is for pansies... In the end, I think that black is really the best tactical color for these straps. In any event, gray and black were offical M.O.D. issued colors. The remaining colors were options if one was inclined to match the strap color to the color of their military-issued briefs I've been known to wear a G10 (incorrectly called "Nato") strap on my Rolex sports models. I either wear the black M.O.D. issue with chrome-plated hardware (which is cheaply made but takes on nice patina), or the well-made thicker variant with steel hardware, or lastly, the black Tropic weave version (during hot humid weather). Only for the 1675 do I wear the leather G10. It is not appropriate for 5513 since it is leather and the Sub is a dive watch! I do not like the Bond G10 at all (despite the fact that I have a pic of my Sub 'wearing' one).
  10. I think it's safe to say that this is a worthwhile mod. I know I'm glad my 3717 has had it done.
  11. Wonderful His & Hers!
  12. Waiting for any news in regards to its release date. Anybody?
  13. Looks great! Enjoy wearing it
  14. Gotta love the 1675: two timezones, and the added bonus of a compass (but only in the northern hemisphere).
  15. That is my all-time favorite watch. I dream of going to my AD, and walking out with it on my wrist.
  16. You are not alone with your affections! But I would not want a replica. I would only want a 1960s original variant of this fabulous tool watch.
