ubiquitous Posted October 28, 2009 Report Posted October 28, 2009 A couple of pics for kruzer and Lani And took a few moments to snap a pic or two of this one...
freddy333 Posted October 28, 2009 Report Posted October 28, 2009 Nice graphite aged insert Freddy! Is that a new addition? 'Graphite aged'? Nah. 100% Gen (bezel, insert & tritium pearl) & naturally-aged. That leaves the dial & middle case as the remaining aftermarket parts in my double red beater. And when I track down gen replacements of either of those, I may then have to consider insuring the watch (as a gen 1665). Ubi - Looks like a perfect day to work at home.
TeeJay Posted October 28, 2009 Report Posted October 28, 2009 I wish I'd entered this into the photo contest
TeeJay Posted October 28, 2009 Report Posted October 28, 2009 Nice Tj Superb shot TJ! Mucho gracias, amigos None too bad for an iPhone cam pic, if I say so myself, it was just an idea I had while we were in the car this afternoon All I've done is flip it in photoshop, and added the border and text
redwatch Posted October 29, 2009 Report Posted October 29, 2009 That's an iPhone pic??? Wow! I'm very impressed now!

vlydog Posted October 29, 2009 Report Posted October 29, 2009 HikeRad for me today to Hump it: HikeRad=SuperBad
TeeJay Posted October 29, 2009 Report Posted October 29, 2009 That's an iPhone pic??? Wow! I'm very impressed now! Thanks, and yes I was resting my elbow on the door, with my fist under my chin, to form a tripod of sorts for my other hand, which was holding the phone, so all nice and stable Custom Very nice HikeRad for me today to Hump it: That's fantastic, bro, what was the source of the dial?
lanikai Posted October 29, 2009 Author Report Posted October 29, 2009 A couple of pics for kruzer and Lani that would make a lot of snowcones (shave ice) strawberry with azuki beans and ice cream for me... yummmmmm AC Lani ps.. it's hot and muggy here with a lot of vog....
ubiquitous Posted October 29, 2009 Report Posted October 29, 2009 that would make a lot of snowcones (shave ice) strawberry with azuki beans and ice cream for me... Those were taken earlier today; we've got quite a lot more since then (14" where I am), and they're forecasting double that by tomorrow. The crazy thing is it's supposed to be back into the 60's by Sun/Mon...
hiker01 Posted October 29, 2009 Report Posted October 29, 2009 HikeRad=SuperBad @vlydog.....................Thanks! That's fantastic, bro, what was the source of the dial? #TJ......thanks Amigo! From a spare dial I got from another Getat project! A little bit of torture seems to work on the dial~ I just removed it from the case and movement to work on it a little bit more!

If I come out this summer for my annual fourteener trek and whitewater rafting (Royal Gorge), I'll PM you! Cheers! Hike
dluddy Posted October 29, 2009 Report Posted October 29, 2009 I thought that only happened in New England Ubi
ubiquitous Posted October 29, 2009 Report Posted October 29, 2009 Lovin' this one on the Kevlar strap Ubi! Vly- Thanks, buddy. I was rather surprised to find out that I like it as well! The Portu is a pretty dressy watch, but the TWB ribbed for her pleasure adds a nice sporty feel to the watch while still maintaining some elegance So far, it's my preferred for the cheapie straps! @ubi! Wow! Too early! What part of the Mile High are you? If I come out this summer for my annual fourteener trek and whitewater rafting (Royal Gorge), I'll PM you! Hike- I'm Denver Metro, so a ways out from the Gorge. None the less, let me know when you're out! I thought that only happened in New England Ubi Indeed... Our saying here is if you don't like the weather, just wait 5 minutes Mother nature changes her mind more than my sister in law- And that's saying a lot!

Graphite color I meant, I knew it was gen. Only one way an insert gets that color and still have some gloss to the finish and that's with time and wear.

Hike Any time, bro I've always quite liked the look of the California dial, but never really felt the mix of Arabic and Roman numerals... That looks awesome though
