p11c Posted May 2, 2010 Report Posted May 2, 2010 Hi Guys, I just wanted to share with you my "pride & joy" first SOSF. I got it from exelonman who bought it from a member on RepGeek. It arrived several days ago but got busy; spring is here, got to put my boat in the water. I took a few pictures today for you to enjoy. . . . . . . . . . Now the question: He wants it, doesn't he ?!
OSRep Posted May 2, 2010 Report Posted May 2, 2010 Great pick up........good decision in watch model too The SOSF is one of the best reps out there. Looks like your little man definitely wants some steelfish!! Wear it well.
plaifender Posted May 2, 2010 Report Posted May 2, 2010 congrats on a great watch! i got the same one and love it!
Jkay Posted May 2, 2010 Report Posted May 2, 2010 Congrats but check that crown. It's nowhere near seated. If it's cross-threaded, gently try and seat it properly. It's a stiff crown in the first place.

It's a stiff crown in the first place. +1... didn't notice that before.. but you're right.. the crown is no where near flush... The crown is notoriously stiff anyways.. but maybe it's not threaded correctly?
p11c Posted May 4, 2010 Author Report Posted May 4, 2010 Hi guys, you have good eyes!! My bad, it needed to be screwed in further, thanks for the tip. What about now? . . Lumen shot
Jkay Posted May 4, 2010 Report Posted May 4, 2010 Perfect! I wouldn't want you to accidentally get water in there, so I pointed it out.
hackR Posted May 5, 2010 Report Posted May 5, 2010 great watch...your son has great taste!...he's a sharp looking boy!... R-
p11c Posted May 5, 2010 Author Report Posted May 5, 2010 Yes, he is a bright fellow, thanks hackR. I have taken the picture below to remind me about his size when he was born; BCE (rep) got in it rather unintentionally, nevertheless it makes for a good picture. Perhaps such exposures sparked his "interest" in watches. LOL
plaifender Posted May 5, 2010 Report Posted May 5, 2010 much better screwed in. I'd give your watch a good ultrasonic cleaning and then polishing upclose in those macros it looks like it's got some dea skin cells/dirt/gunk in some of it's crevices
p11c Posted May 5, 2010 Author Report Posted May 5, 2010 Polishing wax with gel-coat actually, I took these pictures shortly after I was done with buffing hull of my boat. Perhaps the next time I will take more time to make the watches "more presentable" for pictures sessions.

Don't worry, it's your watch.. some people like the more beaten, and worn look.. i myself love the "fresh out of the box squeaky clean" look
