DSSD in ZULU:

\work???? what work........

It/\'s ok....We all know you're nutS!

Thanks for all the nice comments........

genoint - This 1s for you

I believe UWI does AR the date mag!

Whatelse but:

From the Factory:

Just arrived from the Southern SPA:

Relumed and AR'ed.........

and the Lume shot:

Pressure tested to 10ATM!

J's work is always impeccable......his AR Service is amazing, I just wish he does the Date Mag X-TAL, too! IMHO; it has to be done on this watch!

and here's the twist......I ordered a GEN APDiver Rubber Strap for it.......some comparison shots:

Top is REP:

Bottom is REP:

Side by side: Gen is on the RIGHT......

Another Tell is the groove....the Gen comes to an end while the Rep flows out.....

The REP Manufacturers have done an excellent job on their strap....it's pretty close, and you have to have it side-by-side to tell the difference

as you can see from the pictures. The Telltale signs from the outside is the density of the Rubber Material. If you look at it sideways, the thickness

is also noticeable....the REP is slightly thicker. The feel is also different, the GEN is stiffer and seems tougher than the Rep. Some people might

actually prefer the REP due to it's softness and pliability.

Is it worth the $200+shipping cost, maybe? At least you know you have at least half of a GEN on your wrist!

WOWSA! Nicely done!

Congrats Marty.......really nice! You got me beat on that Jubilee! I am planning to install one on mine this weekend!......oh well, great 50th gift!

Finally!!! I've been waiting for this to come out, but...............I guess will be waiting longer. V3???

More Rolex GMT:

Nordictrack - 1 HR warmup

My first Hike - 5 miles

50lbs Backpack - Kelty, Asolo Hiking Boots and Leki Hiking Sticks:

Local Trail about half a mile from my house:

Feeling good! The right knee is a little bit sore, I could feel some pain on un-even terrain for the first 2 miles......

More of the same tomorrow!

Jeeeeeez......you must be a paid employee here, if not, I feel bad for your employer! DOn't matter, you're #1 in my book!

Congrats and looking forward to the next 10000, but we should really celebrate when you get to 121212!

Thanks W! Keep it well! I sure will miss it!
