Capital idea!
If we had a distribution map of membership (or at least interested membership) then we could see which Time/Zone would be the best to use.
Or there's always UTC or the IDL. Ironically, it's likely the TZs with the fewest members are the ones with 2 pillars of our community within, Lani and Nanuq.
Pay them not to wear it?
Hell! If I were a watch company CEO, I'd make a Peter North Model if he'd agree to wear it.
It'd have to be massively waterproof.....and hypoallergenic.

Quartz movements are very reliable. You may find that the hands work a little differently (serve different functions) than in the Gen, but I have high confidence that it would work fine.
+1 for the Seiko. Keep a diver around for wet and other abusive activities. Totally rock solid.

I was twelve when that movie was released. My sister took me to it, and then I went back the next day to watch it by myself.
I agree about Moore/Connery. I liked Moore better when I was a kid, but now I see Connery is clearly the best.
There's no shame is digging on Seikos and Citizens. I'd trust my OM or SKX009 at the beach a hundred time more than my UPO.
There's a place for reps as well as gens on my winders, but just like deciding which World Cup team to support, that's a personal chioce.
