WTF DSD FTW

That Patek is dope.

they're all dope.

[WhoGotMeIntoThis]

Lowrider: That is one beautiful collection sir. Must spread rep.

Went into Torneau yesterday and finally pulled a Milgaus out of the case. Not sure if I can tastefully pull of 41mm. Apparently the new Explorer that will be coming out soon will be avail in a 39mm case. Could be the perfect combo.

Sorry for the cell phone cam shot, but this is the Air King on the new leather. I think I'll probably grab a Rolex clasp online to put on it just to round it out.

damn lowrider, that VC is siiiick

Well, there's always the idea of exploring behind Rolexes, but the Milgauss is kawaii only for the lightning bolt hand. BTW the Air-King looks sick on leather, should keep it that way for its lifetime.

^ I will admit, the bolt, as cheesy or cute as it may be, really makes me want the watch even more.

my NATO straps finally arrived.. olive for the "pro-hunter" look and bond style, both with PVD finish to match the watch.

dusted off my 10 year old g-shock dw003 and decided to finally replace the battery. seemed like a good idea at the time! haha.

Funny feature with this watch. It had a built in "metronome" where if you tapped on the G button it could determine the BPM and then continuous play back the beep. I thought itd be more useful if it actually flashed but whatever.

Watch-splosion. The seals look like theyve held up pretty well after all this time. The band is pretty gross though. Replacements on ebay are kinda pricey

Music for the Masses, is that your GS?

Did you buy it new?

[branespload]

It's actually a discontinued model, but I picked it up dead stock. Couldn't pull the trigger on the one below, which is a bit big for my wrists and a bit more $$$.

i'm currently infatuated/obsessing over this grand seiko :

i'm really hoping this passes soon...

[arlee]

the SBGE001 is def. a looker, love the sapphire bezel and lumed numbers

[pompadork]

Are GS' sold outside of Japan normally? I don't think I've seen many but I do remember them being $_$ (for Seiko at least) but naice.

[lowrider]

Spring Drive movement is pretty damn incredible. Had the Moonphase Spring Drive when that first came out but it's gone now.

[gruntle]

My 1st real watch, got it back in 98. the kinetic movement was real cool at 1st but became unreliable after about a year.

I got my wife one of those about that same time... nice at first, had to have it rebuilt, then it died again.... POC

[chantheman]

[superbeveridge]
