dovo1695 Posted June 26, 2014 Report Posted June 26, 2014 Mike, you'll never know how many of us live vicariously through your posts and pics. Keep'em comin! Myself, I've got 2 kids under the age of 4 and a son due in November, so I'm on a strict 2 watch a year diet. A two watch a week pace is almost two awesome to contemplate! As a watch enthusiast, and an angler I admire your catch and release ethos. That said, I can't believe you let the TC sub go. You might look back on that one as "the one that got away"!
Mike on a bike Posted June 27, 2014 Author Report Posted June 27, 2014 dovo send TC an email / money get another, no biggie. That is if the mood takes me, like my old Rolies.
Mike on a bike Posted June 27, 2014 Author Report Posted June 27, 2014 OOPs missed one and really like it! 2
Nightwatch Posted June 27, 2014 Report Posted June 27, 2014 Fine big - crown military sub and the Maurice Lacroix is beautiful. The pic with bronze watch and the boot is just great:)

Mike on a bike Posted June 27, 2014 Author Report Posted June 27, 2014 I do know if you ever had a shark strap this is my first that Renato (yellow dial) has one soft as hell really comfy and good for the water ,hey it's shark! PS 300 meters water proof
Mike on a bike Posted June 27, 2014 Author Report Posted June 27, 2014 I guess I should have said "brasso" ha It's a Maranez Layan, no? Nice little watch. Did you pick it up from them or another member? Yup Layan, bought new. All the gens are still in there plastic w/ tags etc unworn just tried on I am debating which are keepers. In most cases this results in a place on my shelf of brand new watches which these have not made it to yet. Turning to look at shelf , damn I gotta sell a few hitting max capacity. (you know I won't! :bangin: ) PS anybody have an extra Seiko jubilee link just a tad to small
